Weirdest Band Names Ever

Though a few bands are missing (such as Impaled Northern Moonforest and Arab Kebab - not to mention Cattle Decapitation and The Darkest Of The Hillside Thickets), I have never laughed so hard... I mean, there actually are bands called "A Cat Born In An Oven Isn't a Cake", "HIV and the Positives", "Hitler Stole My Potato" and "Once I Killed a Gopher With a Stick"?


BTW - I plan on forming a one-man keyboard-based experimental band... as for names, I'm thinking either on "Skelethön" or "Alien Jehovah", the latter would probably make this list. Perhaps I should one day form a band called "Somebody Actually Called Their Band That" ???

Your opinion?

LOL very funny, especially liked 'The Band Formerly Known As Sausage' and 'If Pigs Could Talk Would You Still Eat Them '

The Flaming Donuts of Jesus !!!!!!!!!!!

i acually bought their cd in 1994 soley for the name of the band and the album cover! just to prove to my friends that there is indeed a band called The Flaming Donuts of Jesus. The cover art included burning glazed dounts and assorted plastic Jesus figures.

"Atheists for Christ". simply because it's so contradictory.

"Jif and the Choosy Mothers"

Uts and I actually heard about them from our dad. In my opinion, one of the best band names ever.

I've checked that list again.... why aren't They Might Be Giants on the list?

Another gem:

Carter the Unstoppable Sexmachine

Is it just me, or does this make one hell of a title for a Stargate femslash/yuri fanfic?

I second They Might be Giants.

Also:

We're Most Certainly Dwarfs
The Band With Rocks In
The Surepticious Fabric

just in case fictional bands are allowed

Are These My Pants?

It made me laugh. For whatever reason, 'pants', when properly used, is the funniest word in the english language.

Others:

Bernie the Trailer Park Queen and the Deadbeat Dads
Big Dick and the Extenders
Bill Bixby's Big-Ass Communist Eighteen Wheeler
Diet Christ
Dirty Dick and the Trojan Test Pilots
The Do I Look Like I Give a Fucks
Gaye Bikers on Acid
Gee That's A Large Beetle I Wonder If It's Poisonous
Noodle Muffin and the Pig Squints
Oedipussy
People With Chairs Up Their Noses
Placenta Sandwich
Weird People in Giant Condoms
Well-Shaven Goat


And the best one of all:

We Need Girlfriends

-Damien

<Edit> Holy crap, I just found a better one, considering my location:

Wisconcentration Camp

Personally i'm particularly partial to Bowling For Soup. They rule. Suprised QOTSA didn't get a mention.

Made by ZIL, I suppose?

Probably because it's really not that odd of a name.

And no, they're not a joke band!

What about Lieutenant Pigeon and Stavely Makepeace?

I'm sure Strowbridge could name a few...

A lot of those I haven't heard of, much less thought of, in years. Like The Dayglo Abortions.

Boiled Angel is the name of a notorious underground comic, the band "Boiled Angel" should try an idea of their own sometime.

I saw the Imperial Butt Wizards play in '89, and they really sucked.

When I lived in San Antonio in the late 80s, there was a local punk band called:

"Dill Doe and the Four Skins"

and a buddy of mine who lived in LA in the early 90s told me of 3 bands all called "HEAD"- and sometimes they all played on the same bill!

bah, nothing compares to

die zwangsversteigerten doppelhaushälften.

I'm surprised the Throbbing Gristle are on there- it's not that weird for post-punk. Oh, and Dave Barry mentions Big Dick and the Extenders- he got his boat grounded in Miami Harbour and had to swing out onto the boom to get it back into the water to see them.

Hehehe, Spock's Johnson.

What do you guys think of "The Mike Nugent Experience" as a band name?

Neither are Goatpenis and Impaled Nazarene.

I'm sort of confused about that as well, considering the fact that both The Barenaked Ladies and one other popular band (who's name I cannot for the life of me remember at the moment) are on the list.

It's because they're just that awesome.

While we're at it... where's The Fields Of The Nephilim?

roughly translated-"the sold by auction double house halves?"

That is odd.[/quote]
