I hear you'll get arrested in Saudi Arabia for posting in the "Snog, Shag, Marry, or Avoid" thread.

You can also just put a [color=black] tag on a letter in the middle of the word that'll be censored.
I'll throw mine in. The World Is A Beautiful Place & I Am No Longer Afraid To Die (I love this band, but even I know the name is basically just there to be a pain in the ass to say) The Birds Are Spies They Report To The Trees (It's kinda poetic, but only if you are high) and my winner for most confusing/stupid band name Empire! Empire! (I Was A Lonely Estate) - A Parenthetical that doesn't mean anything added to a pretty solid bad name just makes it confusing and weird for the sake of confusing and weird. |

Silver Jews is a strange one. They're not even Jewish.
Archers of Loaf sounds tacky but they're actually a great band. |
if your band name has more than 3 words or has the "adjective-noun(s)" format, youre bad and should relinquish your naming rights immediately.
or even worse if youre name is some unpronounceable garbage or symbols. alt-j and !!!, go fuck yourselves |
^You seem like you'd be a fan of ██████ though.

I know I recognize the name and I can picture the album cover but I cant remember more than that tbh. its noise isn't it? (but yes I think its a horrible and stupid band name)
|
It's some hipster post-black metal
|
right ya that's the cover I remember. forgot what it sounded like and I can kinda see why. It's not bad but doesn't seem that memorable.

As someone has already mentioned, band names that are sentences are very annoying for some reason, but I have no problem with names that don´t mean anything. After all, a name doesn´t really have an obligation to mean anything; what does Beyoncé mean, or Wayne, or Hertz? They´re just names.

Other bands, though, shoot themselves in the foot right from the start by choosing a name which is difficult to spell or pronounce. Step forward OFGKTA, the band that Machine mentioned, and Lynerd Skynerd. |
It's pronounced 'Lĕh-'nérd 'Skin-'nérd

On the same topic, has anyone else noticed that for some reason foreign bands often have foreign-looking names? I recently came across Yggdrasil and Druhá Tráva; I mean, how inconsiderate is that? |
Butthole surfers...

The 1975. Because their music sounds like from 1985.

The Pains of Being Pure at Heart always annoyed me with their stupid long ass name.

Also, the Flaming Tsunamis is pretty ridiculous. |

Or you could always look up "can band".

I'm surprised ''The Band'' is actually one of the first things to come up when you type in the band. |

Is Hitler´s Nipples really a band ? Can´t think of any examples off-hand, but any band name that is likely to offend is a big mistake in my opinion. Dead Babies, Dead Kennedys; names like that are guaranteed to alienate some people, though, thinking about it, paradoxically they may attract quite an audience too. |
Let's not forget Godspeed You! Black Emperor. There's no way whatever that might mean can be creative enough to make up for how absurd a name that is.
|
Dead Kennedys is one of my favourite band names.

Kairon; IRSE!
