Maybe it's a bit cliche but...U2... really? wtf were they trying to go for? Pointless.TheWindWaker11

1) A type of spy plane used by the United States in the 1960's - made famous when Gary Powers' U2 plane was shot down over Russia and he was taken as a
prisoner during the Cold War. 2) U2 as in "you too" referring to the audience and its role in the musical experience 3) a U2 is an unemployment form in Ireland (see UB40)

The Jonas Brothers. McFly. Nine Inch Nails (I love this band but find the name really weird) The Cure. Portishead (I love this band as well but the name is very strange)

There are too many to name.

CBR600-RR

Seriously? You should peruse the name of some of the less than known bands if these names seem bad to you.::

!!! reminds me of Sunn O))) - another bad band name.gasmaskman
To be fair, the O))) means nothing and is only there to reflect the logo of the amplifier brand.

I hate the name Limp Bizkit. The name makes no sense, and the spelling just makes it look like some illiterate teenager was trying (and failing) to sound cool

The names I mentioned are strange to me, The Cure, Nine Inch Nails, Portishead. Jonas Brothers, McFly are beyond horrible. There are alot, seen someone post Vaginal Abyss or something which kind of creeped me out.

Not dissing your favourite band or anything, they got great talent, just not my type of music.

Some more, Soup Dragons, Dogs Die In Hot Cars, The Orgasmic Fish, The The (this is insanely idiotic, LOL).

Flotsam and Jetsam

I

Brittney Spears

Dimmu Borgir

Three inches of Blood

Goatwhore

Bolt Thrower

Dying Fetus (I hate this one....I love the band, but when people ask what im listening to, or look at what im listening to, they freak out haha)

Fall Out Boy

Bullet For my Valentine

 

THE_BRUTALIZER
Flotsam and Jetsam is probably a reference to a chapter in the Lord of the Rings. Dimmu Borgir is named after a Icelandic Volcano or something. Bolt Thrower is named after a weapon in Warhammer (Fantasy) and are also great :D I don't have a problem with the name Dying Fetus but I agree it is such a pain in the *** when someone asks what your listening to then continuously complain about it :x

Any name that makes you cringe if you had to tell someone who you were listening to, also names like Panic! at the disco which makes you stuff up while trying to read it.

:lol: I wouldn't think their name was so bad if that was the case.

[QUOTE="GabuEx"][QUOTE="dracula_16"]Honest bob and the factory to dealer incentivesI_pWnzz_YoU
That's the best band name ever, not the worst. :P

Would you give me exclusive GS rights if I made a band and named them after you? :D

Sure, why not.

I think Nine Inch Nails is a fantastic name, it could be seen in different prospectives.  Also Portishead is just the name of the town they came from, Portishead, Somerset. 

But the other names i can agree with, especially The The.  I think some pretty dumb names are DragonForce, System of a Down (im sorry but it sounds way to much like Rage against the Machine) Spoon, The Naked Brothers band, Dave Mathews band,  and so many other indie names like The Decemberiest.

Haha yeah, DragonForce is awful, and so are their music.

Well I didn't know Portishead were from England, I am glad that I live here as many great bands have come from this place.

There are so many bad band names, probably more than good. But I vote for Scouting for Girls.... eugh I hate that band so much. And some guy said The Sex Pistols.... I think it's a very good name.

It's a good description of how good their music is. Very nice of them to let us know upfront that they suck.

Flotsam and Jetsam is probably a reference to a chapter in the Lord of the Rings.rb2610
Or just the phrase 'flotsam and jetsam'.

The Decembrists are named after the Decembrist uprising, which makes the name a bit more bearable. Now they just need to do the same for their actual music and they're set.

Plain White T's, Fall Out Boy, Senses Fail, Scary Kids Scaring Kids, and Cobra Starship.  It's funny, all I did was launch itunes and look at my sister's music.  That's how bad her taste in music is.  :lol:
