It's not as good as REO Speedealer anyway.

Predominant Mortification are actually pretty decent, even if the guy does need someone to do better pig squeals. I do love grind band names though. Woohoo Libido Airbag!

trailer park rock

Applies more to Worst Case Ontario.

Black Cock is on there, and so is a band called Fuckshovel. Fuckshovel!

I always wanted to start a grindcore band called Rape Kit. *Sigh* maybe someday...

I'm obliged to like TacocaT because they're from my school.

David_Dovey · « **Reply #6 on:** 11 Dec 2009, 19:59 »

I feel sad because I did not know any of the metal bands on the list

Also, I approve of the following:

• Nuclear Power Pants
• Afternoon Naps
• The Oi!strs
• Sweet Tooth Meat Tooth
• German Beef Initiative
• Moistboyz
"The Moistboyz are sick and tired of bullshit and candy-coated VH1 girl-rock. They will not appear in panties or women's clothes. The Moistboyz are not spokesmen of the oppressed. They care nothing for causes, marches, or human rights, because 'human rights' are only the communist watering-down of FREEDOM."
• W (aa) Ou W
• John The Raptist
• Fuckshovel
• Stabfuck
• Kittens Ablaze
• Girl Fart
• Calvin And The Shitpunks
• Bier Slüt
Album: Fuck The Superdome

The moral of this story is that I like awful band names, I guess? Or that I don't really take this shit so seriously.

Danananananananananananackroyd is still a fucking crime though.

Nuclear Power Pants are fucking amazing live, btw. Saw them open for Dan Deacon and was blown away. Also, I love Here We Go Magic.

Question: is naming your band after a lyric from a Flight of the Conchords song which is a pastiche of David Bowie the most painfully circa-2008/09 hipster move imaginable?

Reed · « **Reply #9 on:** 11 Dec 2009, 20:54 »

I really think Fuckface Unstoppable is my favorite name of the list.

David_Dovey · « **Reply #10 on:** 11 Dec 2009, 21:00 »

ALSO: Gay for Johnny Depp have been around for ages guys, fuck you.

David_Dovey · « **Reply #11 on:** 11 Dec 2009, 21:24 »

ALSO ALSO: I just found out about a band from Brisbane called Cuntscrape

I saw As I Lay Awake In Ruin last year.

They were so, so terrible, aside from a Reggie And The Full Effect cover.

I like the sense of urgency in Pants Pants Pants

Koremora · « **Reply #14 on:** 15 Dec 2009, 20:22 »

It's as if they're saying, "If we could have your attention, sir or madam, we would like to point out to you that there ARE pants. In fact, in order to emphasize this point, we will not once, not twice, but THRICE indicate the existence of these objects. Please, let our repetition drive home the point that it is imperative that you recognize that there are pants in the nearby vicinity, or, failing that, elsewhere."

AanAllein · « **Reply #15 on:** 16 Dec 2009, 00:55 »

See, that name is fundamentally flawed. The beauty of the word "pants" is in its simplicity. It's a short word, one syllable, kinda funny but also useful, and it has a strong, good sound to it. Each repetition weakens the word! I'm assuming they're only called that because both "Pants" and "Pants Pants" were taken as band names (which is only fitting).

...what about "Pants!"? I would buy an album by that artist.

Nodaisho · « **Reply #16 on:** 16 Dec 2009, 03:31 »

I was thinking more that it sounded like someone was panicking because they didn't have any pants.

I was so hoping to like pushmi-pullyu, I liked that book a lot when I was younger. They really aren't anything special, though.

greenMonkey · « **Reply #17 on:** 16 Dec 2009, 17:07 »

My good friend's father is the bassist for Put Down The Muffin. I have their CD somewhere, it's quite ridiculous.

rynne · « **Reply #18 on:** 16 Dec 2009, 17:48 »

Man, Dinowalrus list "Giorgio Morotorhead" as their influence.

This leads me to wonder, why didn't they call themselves Giorgio Morotorhead?!? That's obviously the superior name.

Inlander · « **Reply #19 on:** 16 Dec 2009, 18:56 »

There's nothing wrong with the name Dinowalrus that can't be fixed with the judicious placement of an umlaut or two.

imapiratearg · « **Reply #20 on:** 16 Dec 2009, 21:40 »

Fuckshovel is the best on this list.

Sadly absent:

Bearquarium
Torpedo Rodeo

spoon_of_grimbo · « **Reply #22 on:** 20 Dec 2009, 10:28 »

there was a band on this list last year called Piss Pisstofferson. that's gonna take some beating.

When I first heard the Rural Alberta Advantage it was on my friend's satellite radio and the name was cut off so it just said "The Rural Alber" so I thought they were called The Rural Alberts.

JD · « **Reply #24 on:** 20 Dec 2009, 20:47 »

I think that's a better name.

Zingoleb · « **Reply #25 on:** 20 Dec 2009, 23:04 »

My father was listening to a song called "I Want to Play With Your Poodle". The title was cut short to "I Want to Play With Your Poo".

ViolentDove · « **Reply #26 on:** 21 Dec 2009, 21:39 »

Some local contenders from my area (admitedly most of these have been around for a while):

Captain Kickarse and the Awesomes (actually really good live despite their terrible name)

DJ Rainbow Ejaculation BREAKCORE

Rank Sinatra black metal karaoke!? (apparently)

DJ Fuckstopper( actually a joke project from a friend of mine)

Ebolie playing with Cuntscrape, the band Dovey mentioned and some band called Grannyfist.

Ungus Ungus Ungus ...Ungus?

JD · « **Reply #27 on:** 21 Dec 2009, 21:53 »

Frog Eyes live near me. My friend got run over by Carey Mercer, no joke.

ok not run over but the car and my friend collided harder than intended.

glyphic · « **Reply #28 on:** 22 Dec 2009, 07:28 »

Superfun Yeah Yeah Rocketship is from near me. I cannot describe the awful. I get that it's ironic or whatever, but I just don't enjoy it. Harrumph!

EDIT:

I don't know if they ever made this list, but BONERSSS are from nearby and I think that they are fantastic. Maybe there's something wrong with me.
