Band Names

There are a lot of strange band names that have already weird'd me out. I mean, It's not like Its that hard to name a band/music group or something right? Totally wrong man. It's a wonder how some band names exist. You just need like a word to three words to create one. Simplicity Is the key. Bands with more than three words In their name have the risk of sounding bad or good. So It's probably better to stick with simple words. So let us start with weird/bad band names now shall we?. The band's music Is not necessarily weird/bad, but the name sure Is. Trust me on this.

Okay here goes.

Weird/ Bad Band Names.

1. Butthole Surfers (Bad)












Seriously? That's the best they could think of?

Band Member 1 : Hmm... what should we name our band?
Band Member 2 : I don't know.
Band Member 1 : Hey, why not we name our band the Surfers? Eh?
Band Member 2 : Nah, sounds too cheap. Why not... the Butthole Surfers? Since we love
surfing and enjoy looking at butts with their holes, I mean why not?
Band Member 1 : Genius, pure genius.

I'm sure that's how they got the name.


2. Test Icicles (Bad+Weird)













Test + Icicles = Testicicles. Testicicles sound like testicles.

Imagine someone saying testicles Instead of "Test Icicles"

"Hey Joe, wanna go to the Testicles, In concert? I've got two tickets"
"Testicles? Porno? I'M SO IN"
"Uh, no the band, Testicles"
"Your balls play music?"
"Ah never mind"

Smart.


3. Meat Loaf (Weird)














Alright Meat Loaf Isn't really a band but a guy. But a musician nonetheless.

Real Name: Marvin Lee Aday
Date of Birth: September 27, 1947
Occupation: Singer, lead singer of The Neverland Express
Favourite Food: Presumably meatloaf.

It'll be Ironic If he hates meatloaf or something.


4. Mando Diao (Really Weird)













Strangely, this rock band Is from Sweden. The name sounds like It was done by some 12 year old Malaysian kid. It sounds like mandul diao. Sure mandul diao doesn't sound that weird unless you're a Malaysian like me. People here speak as If their language was jumbled pieces of crap which Is using the three main languages here, Malay + Chinese + English. So therefore...

Mandul (Malay) - Infertile
Diao (Chinese slang) - Semexual Intercouse

Infertile Smex. How sweet would that be?

That's what you get for being Swedish.


5. Def Leppard (Weird+Bad)












Deaf Leopard. Nuff Said.

Why would you name your band Deaf Leopard and spell It as Def Leppard? Doesn't make sense. If you want It to be Deaf Leopard, then name It Deaf Leopard, not Def Leppard. Really people back then had bad taste In band naming. Freaks from the 80's with their mullets and guitar breaking and such. But yeah, though their name reeks of failure, their music Is pretty good.

But yeah It's better than the Butthole Surfers so they're not the worst In band naming.

Butthole Surfers, seriously why?
