The Dead Kennedys
It blew my mind the first time I read it because it was so much more intrinsically offensive than anything I had heard before. Even most conservatives won't talk shit about JFK. The Dead Kennedys is a name that hits Americans in a really sore place. It manages to be more offensive than something like Anal Cunt because it's so much more intimately offensive.
