Indie Band Names

I know its a running gag that indie bands are pretensious but does anyone else get so turned off by band names that you can't bring yourself to listen?

Their either something like "...and you will know us by the trail of the dead" which I don't think is that bad, to names of bland you'd think they were the title of pearl jams songs.

Am I crazy or has the whole indie world over thought their names with some self-righteous jab at everything they think is laconic?
