100dB Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 Sort of in the spirit of "Right This Minute": What are some names of bands who's music might have been a little iffy, but their name was perfect! (If you were lucky they were both good.) For example, "My Morning Jacket". Or, "The Cramps". Personally, while the "Minnesota Barking Ducks" didn't have the greatest name, their slogan "Nothing beats fun for having a good time" has always been a fav! Name that band! :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Islander Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 I second Richard Hell and the Voidoids. That name kind of says it all. Here are some others that I like: Teenage Head (RIP Frankie Venom, the lead singer) Skaface Smoked Out Brainzzz The Laundronauts (a power trio with all laundry-themed tunes like I Wanna Come Clean With You, You're My Colourfast Girl, etc.) Clam Dandy (Gina Gershon's band from the movie Prey for Rock and Roll) Lords of Acid Fat Freddy's Drop (excellent band from New Zealand) The Buzzcocks The Pogues Bebop Deluxe Oingo Boingo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
