Imagine Dragons isn't even a bad name; if anything, it's sort of soothing upon imagining it. Like, when you feel distressed, just say to yourself, "Imagine Dragons." Every one of your worries just melted away when you pretend you're flying in an ever-expanding kingdom filled with magic castles, beautiful forests and crystal skies, it harkens back to a simpler place in life: your childhood.

Replace them with Fleetwood Mac.

>Puddle of Mudd
They have one song called "Time Flies" that is actually awfully underrated:

I wouldn't call Puddle of Mudd that terrible, I could name like 4-5 of their songs that are decent. Plus their singer is super alpha.
>arrested a fuckton of times
>got into a standoff with 30 cops
>high speed chase from police
>forced a plane to emergency land because he was drunk and disorderly

The OP was talking about the worst band NAMES, not worst bands in general.

Smashing Pumpkins is not a bad band name at all.

>My Chemical Romance
>Green Day
>Nine Inch Nails
>Farmer Boys
>Have A Nice Life

I don't know how I misread that

Butthole Surfers just pisses me off a lot.
HANL is a fine name.

Still waiting for bad band names.

Crazy Town

Sugar Ray.

We Butter the Bread with Butter

>Fleetwood Mac
get the fuck out

The The

I hate "somebody would've done it eventually" band names like The The and The Band

...

death grips

The fuck is wrong with Portugal!?

my bloody valentine

I unironically love the name Portugal. The Man

>at one point a sea power with world-wide relevancy and fuckhuge territories conquered
>now literally who: the country

5. panic at the disco

>acting like an idiot manchild due to alcoholism
>alpha

He deals with bitch niggas with a titanium pimp hand. That is alpha

(You)

>The Tony Danza Tapdance Extravaganza

None of these are bad names, maybe hollywood undead but makes sense after watching the band.

>The World Is a Beautiful Place & I Am No Longer Afraid to Die

Teen Suicide changed their name just recently. They're called "American Pleasure Club" now

Not sure if bad, but Metallica and Megadeth are dumb names.

Mumford & Sons

My bloody valentine. seriously, its like they want everyone to think theyre edgy emo trash

>vaginal penetration of an amelus with a musty carrot
>mfw it's real

Yeah this one is pretty unbearable

>ctrl+f
>no king gizzard and the lizard wizard
Good. That's the way it should be.

i didnt even know they were still together

also rainbow butt monkeys changed theirs to finger eleven a long while ago

stupid bands have stupid names it's only natural and helps me filter them out

I honestly put off listening to loveless for so long since I confused them with bullet for my valentine, shitty band name

Bongripper is the winner for good music to bad name ratio. One of the best in their genre, with a name that missleads people into thinking it's B-Reals attempt at playing guitar

the singing's fucking awesome tho

Enuff Z'nuff

The Beach Boys

iLiKETRAiNS

disgusting

The Beatles
I didn't realize it was a pun for the longest time

ohno

Gay Dad aref fucking awesome dude fuck you best band of all time

t. Gay Dad members posing as Anonymous

Gay Dad is a great name

Most bands have absolutely terrible names, you're just familiar with them

How is green day a bad name?

I mean Bongripper is not that bad of a name, it's a pretty cool name for a regular stoner metal band
but the thing is, Bongripper is not actually a regular stoner metal band.

Blur
Suede
Verve
Oasis
Pulp

Eyehategod

you're a retard

winrar

good band. terrible name

>dad worked at a record label so he has a bunch of plaques from records he sold hanging in our garage
>dad cleaning the garage one day with the garage door all the way up
>random guy walks inside asking him about the plaques
>after a couple minutes the guy says he's the guitarist of hoobastank and the band lives up the street

And that's how I figured out I live on the same street as Hoobastank

lol that happened to me as well. Never understood why this band was so praised, always thought it was an emo trash band (specially because of Bullet for my Valentine).
But its not really their fault is it? Emo wasn't a thing back then, at least not like it was in the 2000s

So much like alice in chains

Have a Nice Life is a great band name

>Radiohead
>Sneaker Pimps
>The The
>Cream

>Guns and Roses

You mean war and peace?

There is a band in Brazil whose name is "Paralamas do Sucesso", which could be translated as "Fenders of Success" (a car fender, not the guitar). The story behind the name is that the members were thinking of a name and then one said: Say the worst name you could think of. And then one came up with that.

green day is ahead of sweet children

the guitar, drum, bass trio i started in elementary school with some friends and we had huge ambitions but jammed only a couple of times because we sucked and got bored easily ...

I know it's for legal reasons but the Jr in Dinosaur Jr annoys me so much

I wish I could just call them Dinosaur

Those are great names

FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH

Neutral Milk Hotel has to be the dumbest name for anything on earth.

youtube.com/watch?v=AjPau5QYtYs

easily among the worst

I don't think it's that bad of a name, I think people are biasd against it because they suck

Basically any goregrind/pornogrind band name.

Verve and Blur are the only bad ones, Oasis and Suede are just meh, and Pulp is a good name

Worst one is definitely Crywank

>Godspeed You! Black Emperor
Fucking seriously
