YOU WILL KNOW US BY THE TRAIL OF THE DEAD (so fucking stupid)

There's a band in my area (or maybe they're national, I don't remember) called: THE ALEXANDRIA PROJECT ... ???

Stringing random words together does not a good name make!

My band is gonna be called THE FRANKLIN DELANO ROOSEVELT TRUST-FUND SOCIETY EXPERIMENT (FOR LOVERS)

The Number 12 Looks Like You

I'm sure they had a reason for picking this and it wasn't totally random. It's probably a line from some obscure movie or book that only they get. But even still, why would they think it was a good band name?

Everyneurotic 03.26.2007 09:02 PM

The name of a classic Twilight Zone episode. Never heard of the band though.

It doesn't have the feel of a name that could stand the test of time, that's all. Awesome band regardless.

_slavo_ 03.27.2007 10:32 AM

Limp Bizkit is a horrendeous name for a band.

demonrail666 03.27.2007 10:41 AM

Let's up the bar somewhat with ...

Orchestral Manouvres in the Dark.

atsonicpark 03.27.2007 10:42 AM

_slavo_ 03.27.2007 11:15 AM

Green_mind 03.27.2007 11:59 AM

don't be such an extremist. 98% of that list is excellent. of course they do shit like listing 16 bitch pileup as a band having "issues with women" when it's in fact a women's band (but still, they might have issues).

they also missed the fact that the name jewdriver is a parody.

but most of the list are masterpieces of involuntary comedy.

now i don't know in what universe twodeadsluts onegoodfuck would be a good name, but to each their own...

The red chord...wtf?

It gets worse than that:

Good Books


^ What a hideous name for a band.

kingcoffee 08.22.2007 01:59 AM

I got one. It's a local band with a few guys I went to high school with. Four Years Strong. Not only does their music suck, but there name sucks worse than their music.

Guided By Voices isnt a bad name. It's not great, but it's not bad. I like it. And them. One of Canada's best bands.

Guitar Wolf isnt a bad name either. You gotta remember, they're Japanese. Their interpretation of English is rather skewed. Just like our interpretations of their language is really skewed too. Fuckin awesome band as well. INVADER ACE!!!!!!!
