The Mars Volta was always one of my favorite group names. The Smashing Pumpkins was also a neat name...hm. Nirvana. That's all I can think of atm.

What's so bad about Kiss, Judas Priest and Foreigner?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'd have the say the stupid band name EVER is "Cute without the E"

 

 

 

Another stupid one, although they are a great band, is ACDC. They got that off their sister's sewing machine, and it is some kind of adapter cord. Really wierd way to name a band.

I thought from autumn to ashes was a good name, cause the girl who sings occasionally on a few songs is called autumn (or supposedly called autumn.) And if you've heard the songs she sings on, they're amazin with her voice in. then again I love the band.

 

 

 

same doesn't go for From First To Last though, probably the least well thought out, generally crappy name for a band going. sounds like it's trying to have meaning behind it but, yaknow. also they suck :)

Linkin park [we are ... linkin... parks?]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

their original name was Lincoln Park, but when they went to register the domain name it was taken. so they changed the spelling to linkin park :] chester said the name had no meaning except that he drove past it a lot on his way to the recording studio, so without a meaningful name the music could describe itself :)

Beastie Boys

Faith No More

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

also amazing if you know the story behind it...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

their original name was "faith no man", after their singer, but they fired him and so they were "faith no more"... plus they have awesome music....

I always thought Tool was a cool name.

good: Korn (no other band can name themselves a vegetable and be cool), \m/ LAMB OF GOD!!!!! \m/ Metallica is a sick name, PANTERA!! is great! Slipknot is sick too.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I always thought Tool was a cool name.

 

 

 

definately, awesome band too, same with a perfect circle.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

bad names:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

limp bizkit... kinda gay (although really like thier earlier albums[especially three dollar bill yall.]) Cream.. never really liked the name, gotta be honest.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hoobastank... wtf were they thinking?

crosby stills nash & young....

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

to long of a name...

Skid Row is a good one, sounds cool.

The coolest names are R.E.M., Nirvana, and Incubus.

 

 

 

and i only listen to R.e.m.

Queens of the stoneage, just a bit long, though i love them

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

good name - Kyuss, Fu Manchu, Mondo Generator, Foo Fighters (who knows what a foo fighter is?)

Foo Fighters (who knows what a foo fighter is?)

 

 

 

The name given to UFO's during the WW2 period where pilots saw them through their planes?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I think the name Panic! At the Disco is a pretty bad name. As for good names, I can't really think of any.
