Anal Cunt (TAKEN)

Cumbucket (though that one screams nu-metal).

― Tadeusz Suchodolski, Sunday, 21 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

Surely Cumdumspter is the better choice?

And what about the Camel Toads?

I dont know who is resurrecting old threads but I'll say "Sibling Snot."

I'd just like to say that The Camel Toads is sheer brilliance.

― Dan Perry, Monday, 18 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

Why thank yuh Dan, thank yuh very much. I really, really, really must make up the T shirt for that one.

My mate Paul says if he ever formed a band he'd call it And Emily Loved Him. Which is actually a Bagpuss quote, but hints at story telling ability and/or doomed romance.

I quite liked it really.

― Anna, Tuesday, 19 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

are they a metal band Anna?

― j>e>l, Tuesday, 19 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

Not my fictional band. Knowing Paul I would say they would probably sound like Elvis Costello.

― Anna, Tuesday, 19 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

Brian came up with Maybelline Messiah some time back.

Your Dumb Band

― helenfordsdale, Tuesday, 19 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

The Opening Act. Assuming they got more popular, they would then change their name to the Headliners.

Pear Shapes.

Stars On Ice.

Fair Cops.

(the last two are triple-plus entendres, I'm slick like that....the last one is for a Rodney King tribute band)

Here are two indie-ish band name cliches, you choose what's fucking worse and more played out.........1. hiphop dj or MC that puts a "one" at the end of his name....yeah that'll get you noticed you fucking worm...... 2. shitty go-knowhere fashion garage, twee, or emo band starting with "The" and ending with an object or organism too mundane to possibly be a band name....or IS IT?!?!?....."The Favorite Sweater"....."The Toothbrushes"...."The Bookmarks"...."The Flashing Lights"....."The Lampshades"...."The Type Of Thing Ramosi Will Cut Your Dick Off For"......I also hate that shit where it's the guys name preceding "the (singular object or abstract)"...."Walter Mercado and The Timetable"......"Jimmy Agallah and The World History"....fuck em all.

― Ramosi, Tuesday, 9 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

"The Type Of Thing Ramosi Will Cut Your Dick Off For" = the new name of my band!!

― geeta, Tuesday, 9 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

Grumble Blue and The Grumblebusters, a Saturday-morning cartoon band from the Sixties. They looked like four apples covered with brown fur, and sounded just like the Ramones would ten years later. Their show only lasted half a year.

Dan Druff and the White Shites

i read the answer cumbucket. i am actually in a band called cumbucket, and theres nothing nu metal about it. my favourite band name is one thats im not sure is fake or real. gonerria retart is made up of musicians but they are too lazy to play

― josh tonkin, Tuesday, 9 July 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

I speak for Dan here as well when I say that this answer pleases me for all the wrong reasons.

― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 9 July 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

I speak for Dan

Yes, you do.

― Dan Perry, Tuesday, 9 July 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

i'm not sure if it was Thrills or something but a Steve Lamacq- championed band was called the Fuzzy Felt Five.

i adore this name and if i ever form my twee thrash glitchpop group Fuzzy Felt Five is what they will be called.

― Wyndham Earl, Tuesday, 9 July 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

The Opening Act. Assuming they got more popular, they would then change their name to the Headliners. I used to know a guy whose band was called The Special Guests. Don't know if they ever actually played more than the one show I saw.

And if I start an emo band I'm calling it Fear of Plaid.

― j.lu, Tuesday, 9 July 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

Yes, you do.

Of course I do.

i've always thought Variable Smudge, which is a species of moths, would be an excellent name for a fictional band.

Maybe try "flickface" and see if anyone misreads it? I suppose the right/wrong font would help here.
