I'm still waiting for a limited edition white splatter vinyl split from Goatpenis and Goatsemen.

I agree with who ever said five finger death punch- dumb name
Also- Goblin Cock-WTF? I'm not criticizing the music..just the name..ok?

BUt I bet someone here is gonna say...Its the best name ever!!! And that I have NO knowledge or taste in what good music/band names are about. So to that dude...blow me.

I really want to know if these people were on opiates when they came up with those names. No sober group of people could come up with names like that and stick with them.

Didn't take long for me to find out that there's Goat Anus and Goat Phallus to join the stellar ranks of the aforementioned bands. These guys should get together and have a four-way split!

They could call it "Faustian Bukkake"!

Eructation!

LOL!

I don't necessarily think it's a good name, but it's a reference from Kill Bill (which itself is a reference from old Kung Fu movies).

Pretty sure Metallica has nothing to do with Spanish. Looks to me like the word "metal" combined with the Californian pronunciation of "liquor". Seems the name has done them a great deal of good since they're the first band everybody checks out simply because they were among the first to have metal in their name.

I even like the band, and the name isn't THAT bad, but it is a fucked up reference. It isn't called the "Five Finger Death Punch", it is the "Five Point Palm Exploding Heart Technique". Which actually, I think, sounds a lot better.

We Butter the Bread With Butter is pretty ridiculous.

Yeah I know, this is the reaction most people have. And well... I wont change it now when I already have some stuff released. And fuck, I love the logo even if the name is shitty. Haha!

I have had other names like Gravestorm in mind afterwards, I love that name... Sounds a like a really hellish zombie night at the graveyard. But I will use that for some death metal project instead

The names might be rather ridiculous (or funny, however you want to put it), but both bands are class A musical acts.

I've got it! Meat Wallet. The band isn't all that bad. They're kind of sloppy for my taste but they certainly get the job done. Too bad their name sucks. I guess you can't judge a band's content for their name though.

Virgin Steele is the most generic name and stopped me from checking them out for a while.

With Passion: "Their name is meant to represent the passion they have to the music they play." oh come on man, really?! I really enjoy metalcore stuff but dude, the genre already have a fag reputation, you guys are NOT improving the situation.

Sarcófago: just sound silly to me.

Presto?: Presto? sounds good for me... it's something like (Am I) "Good?", but man... it means Pura Raiva Extrema Sobre Todos os Otários (Pure Extreme Rage Against All the Suckers)... so fucking silly.

Gaywire...well, they are called Razorwyre now, so I don't know it that one counts.

I have a demo for a band called Killer. Always thought it was a bit lame, and generic.

There's a Finnish Children of Bodom clone that I actually kind of like called Throne of Chaos.

That's a pretty bad name right there lol.

Exactly how can a throne be "of chaos"??

Puns tend to piss people off more frequently and easier than bad jokes.
I'm sure a lot of people hated the Steel Attack album Carpe DiEnd...not exactly for just the lame album title, but it sure didn't help, did it?

Anyway, another band with a really bad name. Uigg...no, that's not me making a disgusted sound, that's the name of the band.

I dunno, maybe the throne of the lord of chaos. Seems like a legit name to me.

I think that's what it's supposed to mean, but it still sounds pretty bad to me.

Other names that could be considered bad, but which I like because they are funny, are Cock and Ball Torture and Bathtub Shitter.

Actually, on a different subject, i noticed that both of those bands, as well as Agoraphobic Nosebleed are not on this site and I am wondering why.

Bathtub Shitter is weird grindcore, maybe on the punkier side, so I could see that one maybe not being on here.

But Cock and Ball Torture are Gore/Porno-grind with deep guttural vocals and Agoraphobic Nosebleed Grindcore mixed with metal.

I don't see how either could NOT be considered metal.

I'm going through these posts and all of them aren't near as lame as band names I've heard in the past recent years. You want one right off the top of my head? Here ya go

I think they need to do a 3-way split with Goatvulva.

Actually I'm pretty sure he was very aware. A. Morbid is an extremely intelligent man and considering all the numerous and endless bands he's been in, he would care less what people think of the name.



But I will agree, I'm in a Coffin is a terrible band name, not to mention are pretty terrible at the same time.

Also, one last horrible, and I mean BEYOND HORRIBLE band name before I leave this thread for good

Click here (just do it)

Tallyho!

I first read their Demo title as "The Rear Of Cerberus". Thinking about it, they should totally have named it that.

CaBT used to be on MA for a long time but were eventually removed. I can't explain why because I never listened to them.

Agoraphobic Nosebleed aren't metal. They've got some metal in their sound, but it's not nearly enough compared to the punk, noise and even hardcore techno elements.

CBT are more slam than metal and hence were removed during the mass cleanup. Still a kickass band.

I came across this band called - Oh Shit They're Going To Kill Us But then again, they're a crossover band so obviously, 9 cases out of 10, it's got to be silly and bear shades of attempted comedy and raucousness.

Lo and behold.
I own both and they're not bad at all, by the way.

I remember a band called ...Aaaaaarrrgghhh... or something to that extent (yes, the suspensions are supposed to be there), but I can't seem to find it anywhere since I never bothered to count the letters in their monicker to properly spell it. Silly me.

...Aaaarrghh...

There's also Bluuurgh...

Anyone else getting Monty Python flashbacks?

And there's this: http://www.metal-archives.com/bands/AAA ... Blow/24613

Well, Goatpenis has Unspeakable Cult as well. I don't think the two bands are actually connected though.

...Why do they have Phil and Kirk as their picture?

Cattle Decapitation
Strapping Young Lad
Suicide Silence
Dick Destroyer

Please remember that listing things is frowned upon on this board. We generally prefer discussion to name-dropping. Also, again, if you can't be arsed to see whether or not the stuff you intend to post has already been posted, we won't be bothered to have you around. Like, say, some of those band names on this thread.

Looks like a hoax band. What's with the band photo? That looks very much like Anselmo and Windstein!
