lameo nameo
 

We all know Sonic Youth is the coolest name for a band, but what is the lamest name (for a band) that you've ever heard of.

'Busted' came to mind.

The Books.

I don't want to listen to them because of their name.

"What should we call ourselves?"
"The Books"
"OK"

*world descends into boredom*

I always thought that L7 was a fucking stupid name.

The Editors- What the fuck?
Scissor Sisters-What the hell is this?
Fall out boy- emo fanboys.

The Microphones.

Think harder, people.

buckcherry. really now...buckcherry?!?

Blink182
Evanescence
Sum41
etc

I know, what the hell?

they should've been named something else...like SUCKcherry. HAHAHAHA!

Owned.

THE THE

There's no imagination in giving yourselves a THE and then just posting any plural word you can think of that hasn't been used already but this is just lazy.

there was a band in waterford, near to me in ireland called bleeding wreckthumb.... they were oi! punk with a penchant for kicking over tables.. they sucked but were nice guys!!

Oh my god thats the stupidest.

Slang for lesbian sex.



Originally they were called Dead Lesbian & The Fibrillating Scissor Sisters.

Really? Okay, cool name then, if you ask me.

Pet Shop Boys.

Nickelback.

Broken Social Scene = worst band name ever?

When I first heard that name, I instantly assumed they were some kind of emo/punk/bullshit band that tried real hard to come up with something edgy, but all they could muster was Broken Social Scene.

Also, did anyone see that VH1 show 'Supergroup'? DAMNOCRACY! ha!

Well remember, their other options were FIST and Savage Animal, so can you blame them, really?

Don't forget God War! Or even RAW DOGS! hahahahaha

the greatest moment ever on television was when sebastian bach was all "SAVAGE ANIMAL!" to everyone.

they're a cute band, but pants yell! is just too precious. i do not like the useless ! there.

God I love you people.

I think some people get lazy and use online band name generators.

Why has nobody mentioned INXS yet? What a shit name. Also;

Little Feat
Focus
The Beatles
The Fall
The The
The Buzzcocks
The Ramones
The Sex Pistols (I mean, what the fuck?)
Me First and the Gimme Gimme Gimmes (too long)
The Sensational Alex Harvey Band
The Birthday Party
Prince

I absolutly hate all the rappers with 'Lil' before their name.

Lil Jon
Lil Bignigga
Lil Nicky

the birthday party is actually one of my favorite band names.

The Good, The Bad & The Queen

Yeah no kidding.

Except when I'm on Youtube.

Nick Cave & The Cavemen (also doubles as one of the best names).

!!! (chk chk chk)

...because its hard for me to say.

Haha broken social scene.. that's pretty bad.

The The is actually a pretty cool name.

Any hardcore/metalcore/whatever band with "conspiracy", "crisis", "plan", "conspiracy" or "theory" in the name.

Name that's actually awful but hilarious and cool in a way:
winona riders

i actually think !!! is pretty clever, given the backstory of the name.

lil bignigga can't be real.

and prince? i mean, that's his real name. was he gonna call himself "nelson rogers" instead?

pretty girls make graves
the killers/horrors/editors/thrills
miss black america
manic street preachers
oasis
u2


best worst band name = fringe benefits

japanese pop bands with creepy bad names:
kinki kids
mr children

yeah i considered pretty girls make graves but i pretended that they named themselves after a smiths song which is usually cool in my book.

my girlfriend was just saying today that some band should call themselves "qwerty". that would be the worst band name ever.

there's a band called snakes say hissssss! out there. the music isn't horrible, but the name peeves me.

they did, actually. either that or a line from kerouack's "the dharma bums". i think it's the smiths song, though.

clap your hands say yeah!

Yeah, I made up 'lil bignigga'.

Prince could have could up with a clever pseudonym. I love Prince and all, but he's really bad at naming stuff.
