Korn. It isn't so much that the bad, but there music doesn't do it for me. That being said, the name reminds me of MK, so it makes me smile.

The first album was good, second album was pretty good, third album had a song or two, then I lost interest with the remix album. I listened to about 3/4 of it then all my cds got stolen.

My Life With the Thrill Kill Cult, I listened to a song or 2 and wondered how they got a contract.

A guy I work with has a band called Flirting with Disaster, and he actsl ike this hard core screamo metal kid, I thought it was a hilarious name, it's that awful.

It's also the name of an excessively wicked song by Molly Hatchet.

Godsmack. I was so hopeful when these guys came out, then my hopes were quickly shot down by their suckiness.

Pere Ubu is a case of both a weird name and music. I think there are only two songs by them i like "Heart of Darkness" and "My Dark Age". The rest of their stuff is just . . . weird . . . think michael jackson, the zombies . . . umm . . . novelty songs for halloween . . . just trust me on the weirdness factor Pere Ubu has. Some songs are down right creepy like "Codex" . . . creepiest song ever Confused

Really? I knew how to say it from the begining, i saw it spelled with the accent dots though, their music is solid but i only liek a few songs though, as far as I know it is queensRIKE, think bike but with an "R".

Godsmack always struck me as syper generic, which is werid because when I hear them I imediately know it's Godsmack right off the bat. Confused

Hatebreed has a cool name, but I swear they do the same song over and over and over album after album, the guitarist speed palm mutes the lowest riff he can find in drop d, and the "singer" shouts about self respect and anger and honor. Blech.

I always thought the coolest name ever for a band would be Moneyshot.

Yeah, that's right. They had a song called "Queen of the Reich" which was a play on that or something.

Anal Cunt... I'm sure they know they suck as a band, but their name and song titles are hilarious.

Posted: May 27 2008 03:41 pm

The Meatshits. They're name is hilarious and their songs have titles like "Dismembered then Raped" and "Sniper at the Fag Parade". Every song is just 12 seconds of some obscure movies quote, then about three death metal drum beats and a death metal scream of some word...actually, their music is fucking awesome too.

Do yourself a favor and don't actually buy any Anal Cunt albums. The music is garbage. But the lyrics and songtitles are hilarious, even if there's a possibility Seth Putnam (mainman behind AC) really is a racist, sexist asshole.
Impaled Northern Moonforest is a cool name, but the music is all right, given how its Acoustic Black Metal. Another Seth Putnam project.
