I put off checking out Nirvana for about a year based on name alone.

Joy Orbison may be many things as a name but boring isn't really one of them. Everyone comments on it.

I mean, you guys do know this isn't a "which band names put you off listening to their music?" thread, right?

in context the most boring band names are usually the ones when some buzz band has a word or phrasing in their name that is also used in 4-8 other buzzy bands from the same era.

billstevejim, Tuesday, 20 October 2020 15:44 (three years ago) link

Like all the bands in the 2010s with three words in their name and the second is The.

The 2020s will be the era of 'the' as the third word. I think we're ready.

Honest question- wouldn't the same go for any car part then? Something like Emergency Brake would have more of that dramatic connotation for me.

You're more likely to smack your face into the back of the headrest in an accident but I get what you mean. it's a really shit name

Specific Ocean Blue (dog latin), Tuesday, 20 October 2020 15:55 (three years ago) link

Bands who have the name of the genre in their name often suck. You play dub, we get it

The one-upmanship among ska bands of who can come up with the most embarrassing or ridiculous "ska" pun name is at least as entertaining as the music imo.

A lot of the best boring names already claimed by Brits in particular (James, The Dentists come to mind) but LOL @ "Subject Matter"

A friend of mine suggested this:

Band name: Adjective Noun

Their first album is called Promising Debut.

Their second album is called Disappointing Followup.

landscape were a band in the early 80s btw. went from being a jazz fusion group to doing futurist like stuf. I think Einstein a Gog o was them?

Stevolende, Sunday, 8 November 2020 14:40 (three years ago) link

damn, I had that bell ringing in the back of my head, but I thought it was just a similar kind of name, not almost literally the same name. should have checked before posting!

kiss some penis reference (breastcrawl), Sunday, 8 November 2020 14:54 (three years ago) link

definitely a very boring band name tho
