Good Band Names
Zaarin:
I know it's been mentioned before, I but I love the name Skyclad. It's just such a wonderfully evocative name. Wearing the sky, as it were. A beautiful image.
Codeine. Short, and it fits the hazy, druggy music the band made.
The Fall. It's short, it's sharp, it's a Camus reference.
Josef K. Science has proven that anything with nods to Kafka rules by default.
Banco de Gaia. I may be biased by the fact that I have an unhealthy, possibly illegal love for Toby Marks' music, but like Skyclad, this is one of those names that evokes beautiful images in my mind. Speaking of BdG, Toby's nightmare of has come true in the form of the Qinghai-Xizang railway line.

Limp Biscuit!
We're talking about the worst band names, right . . ?
pinkpiche:
The Artilleryman and the Fighting Machine (because the song from the War of the worlds soundtrack is cool as hell)
Circle Takes the Square (just because)
cLOUDDEAD (it's so damn artsy and snobbish that you can't help but like it)
Dat Politics (there's something glitchy and itchy in both the name and music)
Envy (...)
Heavy Heavy Low Low (very very stupid bandname but funny band, check their hidden track on Courtside Seats)
Johnossi (uhm dunno why)
Katzenstreik (german.. BOOYA!)
Mew (because you can write it backwards and all sorts of cool things)

It really is a beautiful image, though to me it invokes hippy modern day pagans/Wiccas who use it as a synonym for 'naked'.
The Teardrop Explodes - Burroughs reference and great band name
Halo of Flies (dosen't the guy from that post here?)
Japanther
Guitar Wolf

This band name frustrates me because I always see them come way more frequently than what I'm actually looking for when looking for Banco del Mutuo Soccorso (often shortened to Banco). Same with Death in Vegas, Death in June, Death Cab for Cutie, etc, when searching for just plain Death.
