Bad Band Names


One of my favorite hobbies is creating bad band names.


Its also fun to imagine what these bands would sound/look like. Usually pretty goddamn terrible.

A sampling:


1. Hungry Burp.

The first bad band name. I have been known to say, "WE'RE HUNGRY BURP AND WE'RE HERE TO ROCK YOUR FACE OFF." This name was inspired by hungry burps (what a surprise). You know, when you're so hungry, you burp. It has a very specific taste and feel. Empty.

Hungry Burp would be a bro band. A band made up of men exactly like this :

They would be very bad at playing their instruments. Their songs would all sound the same, and the hooks would be made up of only a few words. Perhaps they would have a song titled, "Poop!" However, they would feel like complete, swaggering rock stars. They'd probably develop a coke habit and disintegrate. Too bad.



2. Fence of Melancholy

This band is "conceptual." Their singer has a voice that makes you question, "Is that a man or a woman??" Their songs usually have the words "blood" or "eternal" in them.

They'd probably look a lot like...

SHUDDER. I know. Pretty bad. This band's fanbase is made up of tweeny scene kids who dye their hair many colors and complain that their parents don't understand them. Avoid this band at all costs.


3. Cardiac Combustion

This band sounds like a heart attack. The lead singer is a girl, but she's backed by all guys. These guys are pale, and all want to bone the lead singer. She's thin, pale, and has eyeliner like a raccoon. Her haircut is bad, yet all the guys have the same haircut.

They sound like a girl sitting in her room that was decorated by her parents writing sad songs on her acoustic guitar. They've sold millions of albums.



Bad band names usually = bad bands. Not always. But usually.
