2.Of course it's stupid to entirely dismiss a band's unheard music based on their name alone - even tho 89% of the time you'd be RIGHT.
Having said that...call me a prude, but I REALLY hate "Anal Cunt". I mean, at least their song titles are HUMOROUSLY offensive.

No-Neck Blues BandThe Fucking Champs
i hate the name 'Clap Your Hands Say Yeah'. OMG i hate it so much.
SunnO))) made me want to hear them. maybe i am a pretentious Wire reading fuck. i didn't like them all that much, but i will probably try again just because i like so much on Southern Lord. how could i not like the flagship founding group?

... is nice. I think the song I like is "Run Run Run" -- my main man August Darnell producing. Was this a British band? I think so.

btw...
death before dying refers to a spiritual concept in Sufi, Muslim and Western Mystery Traditions, in case you didn't know and maybe that makes it sound a little less ridiculous. Otherwise, yeah, it sounds like they wanted to be even deadlier than death or something.

And regrettably, both Red Lorry Yellow Lorry + And Also The Trees (trendsetters in the annoying trend) were un-hateable. I had the 1st stylishly sprayed on my Maxi-Puch 50cc motorbike.
Rapeman is the only indefensibly stupid name I see on this thread so far, I remember it caused a protest at the distributor's office.

For some reason I always hated the name "Electric Flag" out of all proportion. I'm not even sure I've ever listened to the band, I just hate the name.
I had a hard time buying The New Pornographers when they came out because I thought it was a really dumb name.

Did you come up with that one all by yourself?Also Slim Thug is a badass name. Yaz is a cool name too.
And "Evanescence" is an indisputably great name for an awful band.

i think it's just These Arms are Snakes not "Like Snakes"
I like Silver Jews as a band name.

Any band that has the word "die" in it -- Every Time I Die, As I Lay Dying, Death In Vegas, etc. Exception given for if anybody ever names their band "Die Bart Die".

Yet to be mentioned (I think):
