Now I thought for sure the best name was Bare Naked Ladies!!! LOL!Worst name...I thought some of the names of the 50's groups were pretty stupid. The Platters, The Moonglows...they were all trying to follow some formula and I guess they were. At least some of the other names mentioned here needed some creativity or something.
yah the 50s stuff ..very silly...but they could not be edgy back then as the explosion was just beginning
The the! hah..i thought of them..as it is a band name that is whacky but they produced some great new wave synth tunes like "Its my life" covered in 2002ish by No Doubt...so i give them a pass.
how about art rock band "And you will know us by the trail of dead" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E2%80%A6And_...ead...hmm..just because of the stupid weird name i have always turned them off...they my have talent...who cares.
how about art rock band "And you will know us by the trail of dead"
that name owns and that band is awesome... one of the best ive ever seen live... they're intense.
As far as bad names go.... you can't get much worse muscially or name-wise than "Brokencyde"
Any of the nu-metal mispelled names of the 90s were pretty bad too -> Korn, Limp Bizkit, etc.

Eek a mouse is a sh*tty name.
Eek a mouse is a sh*tty name.
Great reggae! "has anybody seen da virgin girl"
Not sure if their the worst, but "The Dead Kennedys" "Buzz Cocks" "Flaming lips" are all kinda shocking.
We were once going to call ourselves "Free Pizza" just to get people to come.

I don't know some of their straight forward pop stuff off the ALBUMS is pretty good. Went to about 10 dead shows. I went in the first time, sold my ticket the other ticket 9 times. Even under the influence, it was not that good. Now go see a Kiss concert on acid, the funniest thing in your life. I couldn't stop laughing for 3 straight hours. Their shows are so ridiculous their is nothing else to do but laugh. Kiss are piss poor musicians.
Oh the name
The Alan Parsons Project
straight forward pop stuff?
it's a little known fact that the dead single-handedly kept salvation armies and soup kitchens alive through tough times. they would donate to approx. a 50 mile range surrounding each show they did, positively affecting huge areas. they wanted no publicity for this, the same went for their music.
the entire In The Dark album was recorded in an entirely pitch-black studio, hence the name. fun fact: this was after Jerry's stroke-he had no recollection of his former self and had to completely relearn to sing and play from scratch. although this album had some success with touch of gray, and truckin, casey jones, and sugar mag get radio play this band had no pop tunes. those songs rank overwhelmingly low with all deadheads, possibly for those reasons.
try these:
scarlet>>fire
china-ryder
aiko-aiko
he's gone
althea
their name was chosen by flipping open a dictionary and pointing.....and there was grateful dead. so maybe they deserve to be included in this thread, but their music is certainly not on trial. execs can only dream of a band having a following like the Dead have.
btw, they're touring this year. maybe try them sober this time Kosar...........or just get ur sheets from the lot and head home, whatever ur thing is.

i'm going to see them on sunday in cincinnati. my 3rd furthur show this year. they are ripping shit right now.
and those 'pop' dead songs are pretty low on the deadhead totem pole. gimme an estimated prophet from 1978.
speaking of reggae, i have no idea how gregory issacs has escaped me all of these years. i heard phish's cover of night nurse from their show 2 weeks ago and it is awesome. i'm definitely going to be digging up some of this guy's back catalog.
