Worst band name ever?

[Joey Shabadoo]

I had friends in a band called Summerfield Blues. Whilst touring they regularly saw builder's vans emblazoned with the trades they covered on the side. From that came the idea. At one gig, they scheduled an intermission and went offstage, returning seconds later with binbags over their heads and played thirty seconds of manic thrash metal before screaming in unison "We are Slater, Tiler and Roughcaster - goodnight!" before running offstage again.

 

[Slick]

Chumbawumba

 

[Drago]

Depeche Mode. Even they can't agree how to pronounce it.

[Mr Celine]

Disco Tex and the Sex-o-Lettes had a name as dire as their music.

 

[Glow worm]

Apparently, the composer Handel is back, and thinking of linking up with Hinge and Bracket to re- form The Doors.
IGMC.

I'd add Dumpy's Rusty Nuts as a questionable band name. Though I quite like it.

Edit - and Pigbag

 

[winjim]

The Beatles.

A bloody awful pun. Honestly, people beatify John Lennon but he just liked really shitty wordplay and came up with that terrible name.

But First Aid Kit is worse.

 

[Seevio]

My first band was called Mel 'n' Corpse back in the 90s. Not particularly tasteful, or indeed, accurate but it was what it was.

Wasn’t that the band Noel Redding formed after he left Hendrix?
