Limp Bizkit

Boulderdash, my man.
Punk bands can barely command the english language,
never mind thinking up good song names.
(but punk women look pretty, sometimes)

Rock and Metal bands have a kings share of the best song titles,
because they can read and write.

Anyhow, it takes all music types to make a whole.

For best (meaning strangest) band names I'd have to go with:

"Blue Oyster Cult"
"Steely Dan"
"Deep Purple"
"Creedence Clearwater Revival"
"Aerosmith"
"The Who"
"The Band"
"Grand Funk Railroad"
"Anti-Christ Death Cult" (More commonly known as AC/DC)
"Yes"
"ZZ Top"
"Jethro Tull"

and many others that I can't think of right now. Most band names are meant to be strange so they stand out and are remembered.

Others.

I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in.
-Kenny Rodgers
Tweeter and the Monkeyman
-The Travelling Willburries
Shine on you crazy diamond
-Pink Floyd (I think that is what it is called)

[Ptolemy]

I got some other great band names

Disneyland After Dark
Saybia (I have always heard it pronounced in an english way but I do not understand what the hell the meaning with that word is!
)

Song names:
Mr. Moustache - Nirvana
Swap Meet - Nirvana
Territorial Pissings - Nirvana
Lithium - Nirvana (No one but Nirvana would name a song after a chemical substance)
Buddy Holly - Weezer

 

[Karnokki]

Here are a few more band names that might serve to spark the imagination:

Big Head Todd and the Monsters
Uriah Heep
Toad the Wet Sprocket
The Lovin' Spoonful
Nick Cave and the Bad Seed
Jane's Addiction

Song Titles:

Emerson Lake and Palmer - Brain Salad Surgery
Steely Dan - Your Gold Teeth
Black Sabbath - Fairies Wear Boots
Lou Reed - HookyWooky
Alan Parsons Project - (The system of) Dr. Tar and Professor Fether
Pappa Chubby - Sweet Goddess of Love and Beer

 

[ComradeDavo]

Some of my favourite song names:

Alice In Chains - Junkhead
Alice In Chains - Love , Hate, Love
Rage Against The Machine - F*ck the Police
Nirvana - Aneurysm
Nirvana - Territorial Pissings (looks like i'm not the only one)
Soungarden - Black Hole Sun
Pearl Jam - Elderly women behind the counter in a small town
System Of a Down - War?

 

[Rhye]

QUEEN -> BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY

 

[Genuis]

Anything by Wesley Willis. Man, that guy is a genius. The next Mozart, if you ask me. Some examples:

• "Casper the Homosexual Friendly Ghost"
• "They Threw Me Out of Church"
• "Suck My Dog's Dick"
• "I Can't Drive"
• "Birdman Kicked My Ass"

The list goes on and on...

BTW I really want a guitar tab for "Casper," so if you know where I can get one do tell.
