This Months Top 5 

Top 5 cheesiest band names

What's in a name? I know it must be tough to come up with a cool name for a band, but through the years some names have been used that are downright lame. There are ones like the Flying Burrito Brothers, Korn, Ben Folds Five, Better Than Ezra, Foo Fighters, Strawberry Alarm Clock, Everything but the Girl, Pet Shop Boys, Haircut 100 and  Bananarama that can easily fit into this list but since this is a top five list, I'm only including my top five choices.  I'm sure you guys can think of plenty more to add to the list, that I have overlooked.  (note: a bad name doesn't necessarily mean the band blows, it's just a name thing.)

5. Right Said Fred
4. Goo Goo Dolls
3. Barenaked Ladies
2. [insert word]-[insert number]

And the number one cheesiest band name

Limp Bizkit
 

Your turn, what do you think? What are some of the cheesiest band names?


They call you 
What do you think ?:

The Pet Shop Boys. Hello?


Posted by The One:
James "Toad the Wet Sprocket" is taken from a Monty Python sketch. It's actually funny in context if you're a Python fan. I think the band took it on simply as part of the joke. Think: Dave Barry. He comes up with great "stupid" names for bands and some bands have named themselves after his suggestions on purpose:)

Posted by AliceCooperette:
Guns N Roses used to rock. But it irks me that Axl Rose tries to pass himself off as "Guns N Roses" when Slash isn't even there. He could just as easily pass off himself as a solo act.


Posted by squat:
YeahI agree! Flickmyprick sucks! And the name is stoopid too!


Posted by bgtme:
Flickerstick is not only the stooooooooopidest name for a group, they also suck the sweat off a dead donkeys balls! Freakin goo goo dolls rip off artists! by the way, poo poo dolls suck to!


Posted by Spot on!!!:
Limpbizkit aren't sell outs! there a bunch of pussy! fred durst is the sellout and the rest are all to scared of him to stand up and do something about him money orientated mind!!! the only one with any sense of dignity is wes who atleast had the courage to not stay down and be labelled like the rest and leave!!! i hate limpbizkit they need to grow some f.u.c.k.i.n.g balls!!


Posted by Jay:
Limp Bizkit=sellout speak no more of them children they are insignificant others.


Posted by Live Era 87' 93':
I think GUNS N' ROSES, personally is the greatest hardcore rock an' roll band of all time. Through 1987 up until they split in 1994. Axl Rose, he's a demi-God. He's got talent way beyond the bands that were back then, and are here, and are beginning. Slash, he's brilliant with a guitar. The only reason why they're not there now is because of personal issues concerning the direction the band was heading in. Plus the breakups, and drug issues. None the less, the new GNR aren't quite as well, but it's good to see Axl back and doin' what he does best and that's Singing!

Posted by groovy:
limp bizkit sounds funny. But it's the music that counts. and i think "significant other" is a great record.

Limp Bizkit isnt that bad of a band name.

Oh, yeah! And the Voodoo Glow Skulls. If that's not bizarre, I don't know what is...


Posted by Greb:
Nothingface. That name is despicable. And Radiohead and Soundgarden are pathetic names, too.

Posted by sir:
to Greg, Flickerstick is a musical slang term for a flowing melody, so it fits the band well , they're heavy on melody


Posted by Hey You!!:
P.Diddy.Thats enough said.


Posted by Wylde_Cantrell:

Posted by Grille:
Right Said Fred=one hit wonder, Goo Goo Dolls are both over rated and over played, BNL sucks (from their name to their music), (insert word)-(insert number) is a crappy name, andd limp bizkit can burn in hell, I agree

Posted by suicidex:
ok dead on with the limp bizquick korn is pretty cheezy but you gotta make some room for the 80's european shiza like wham! what the f$%ks that all about?


Posted by Mercury:
I didn't think I'd ever see Gary Glitter's name and Eminem's in the same sentence STP!! WTF?! You just sat down and said to yourself "Self! I'm gonna say I think Gary Glitter (who I don't think has really recorded anything besides that Who thing a few years back, in eons!)and EMINEM suck." That's like saying "I hate lima beans, but, boy, do I really hate it when my car breaks down on me, or something.......weird!


Posted by Kayla:
yeah... those are some really bad names lol. and if any of you watch mad tv, you know that goo goo is just another name for penis. I think that three dollar special would be a cool name for a band. Different, yet fun. And band names that come from song lyrics can be fun.


Posted by Becky:
This goes out to Greg~ Hun, if you dont underdstand what the name means, then maybe you shouldnt bother at all. Obviously, if you were smart enough, you would know that those band titles have DEEP meanings. Whether you like them or not, doesnt mean you can say theyre stupid because I actually know what they mean. Even if the names mean nothing to you, they might mean a whole lot to the artist, they probably have a history. Angelfromearth@aol.com


Posted by greg:
I hate names that have no meaning, such as Buckcherry, Soulcracker, Flickerstick, names that have to words that have no menaning and sound like one of those stupid "bands on the run" bands

Let's cut to the chase: The Backstreet Boys!! Cheesy and 100% wrong!!


Posted by Blue meanie:
The cruddiest name has got to be Duran Duran. That is as lame as J-LO.


Posted by DM:
here are two: HANSON AND SPANDAU BALLET! can you say limburger cheesy?


Posted by Windegowolf:
TopBunk. My friends are in a band called TopBunk. I told them that was a bad idea...


Posted by SubXavier:
Cream refers to what the members of the band were back when it was formed: the cream of the crop in the music world.


Posted by iamsocool:
Whats wrong with 'Cream'?


Posted by Scott:
Blue Oyster Cult is one of the worst names ever. Axl Rose is a fat washed up has been. they were good 10 years ago, not any more


Posted by MF?:
Manual feedback is the WORST f**ing name I have ever heard! **CRINGE** Are you serious? It's as bad as Flange.


Posted by Wandall:
UB40, 3 Doors Down, Pantera, Jebediah and Cream are pathetic band names. I am in a band called Manual Feedback, now that is a kickass name, we used to be called The Atomic Chickens but then that crap Atomic Kitten came out.


Posted by DV:
GnR rule. Although I could never listen to november rain again cuz MTV played it to death and beyond. They did that with teen spirit an Jeremy. Grrr, not only does MTV play sh*t music, they ruin the few good songs by playing them 40 times and hour. Bastards!


Posted by iamsocool:
GnR rules....about 90% of the people who hate GnR are people who have petty much just heard Welcome to the Jungle. Metallica was alright.... they had a few catchy songs, but they couldnt be good on a consistant basis


Posted by Repsaj:
guns and roses rules, you drain-cleaner. You want to hear a gay name? Metallica.. I think thats probably the name for a womans lipstick color or something


Posted by Saliva:
That nameis just plain gay! I mean why have a band name Saliva?


Posted by DV:
Yeah, I knew a guy who was into prog-rock and he wanted to call his band 'Quartet'. I mean how f*cking boring and square is that?


Posted by RidahNY:
"Stratovarios" is a pretty sh*tty band name. "Dream Theater" is really stupid IMO along with "King Crimson" but then again almost all prog. rock bands have stupid names.


Posted by Alasandro:
Worst band name I ever heard is "Big Tits, Little Tits".


Posted by ALLCANADIAN:
Brewsky is a pretty cool name. Goo Goo Dolls should be the #1 all time cheesiest band name + the singer is a F*^K%$G FAGGET!!!.


Posted by GODEMON:
Who do you agree with the max???


Posted by BEESWAX:
Ben folds five is pretty cheesy. GNR suck ass!!!


Posted by the max:
I agree


Posted by GODEMON:
Soulfly is the greatest Fear Factory rules also. I'd have to say Matchbox 20 is the cheesiest name and band. I HATE GNR!!!..


Posted by Sir smoke alot:
Guns n' Roses are the gayest in the world + their music is even worse.


Posted by thaghettob!tch:
Band names aren't supposed to be like the coolest thing otherwise everyone wood be named after pot. Yeah cheesy ones suck, but things like where the lead person is the name of the band (SRV, Jimi Hendrix Experience) is because those are the ones carrying the band. stop and look at how stupid you are before you slam a legend.


Posted by NeverKnewThat!:
No, you don't say!


Posted by iamsocool:
rapid eye movement is a phenomenon when some people sleep. thier eyes move around very quickly when they dream


Posted by Bbmaj7#11:
I thought Buckcherry were originaly called buttcherry but there was a typo.


Posted by James:
The dumbest band name I can think of is Toad the Wet Sprocket. I read someone cutting down Lynyrd Skynyrd's name, they didn't know it came from a highschool teacher named Leonard Skinner. And Buckcherry is just an anagram of rock pioneer Chuck Berry. There's meaning there, so they're not dumb by any means.


Posted by Dm:
what does rem mean? does it have to do with rapid-eye-movement or is it something political?


Posted by brewsky:
Keanu's band blows. they're only "famous" cuz he's in it. and he's not even that good.


Posted by cris:
they'd play there most of the time. the name does sound cheesy. sounds more like a plumbing service.


Posted by cris:
i think i heard of that band. i used to work at a small club called the pelican lounge


Posted by LAlife:
heres one: Dogstar, Keanu Reeves's dumbass band. And another one is the pipefitters. maybe you're not familiar with them , but i was in la a couple of years ago. they sound so-so, but does the lead singer have to be that tool from "la bamba"?

Posted by Cletus Burger:
Limp bizkit is a corny name but wat u said about them not being a bad band even though they have a bad name i disagree with... they would be good if freddy would leave... he needs to go back to his roots and stop trying to rap


Posted by the max:
Whoever that guy was...I just have to say, anyone who say's "All y'all" shouldn't be telling other people to get a life.

I didn't post that last post. I think gay in this sense means lame or wimpy. Now what are we dissing?

Posted by SubXavier:
...If you were the only straight person on the planet, wouldn't you be considered the "gay" one? Just food for thought.


Posted by Defchild:
i think the people who come and bitch about how you guys bash a band name should go f*ck off...and you no cussing law blows my nuts


Posted by the max:
Your gay, you're all so very gay. You don't like something that I do...so you're gay. Hey, I disagree with you, so you are the gay one. Anyone who thinks differently than me is gay. Wow...everyone is gay but me. I must be the only straight person on the planet. Now if any of you dipshyt pop fans can make a post without calling somone "gay" than maybe people will be able to find a hint of intelligence in your posts. I blame Eminem for overusing that damn word. Thus influencing his fans to do the same. All you fukking sheep need to get a life.

Posted by Draco:
This sure has been going on for a while.


Posted by Tub:
Just to stick up for Supergrass, the name isn't lame and lazy like 'superchunk'etc. A supergrass is an English (british) slang word used by criminals to refer to a police informant. It's also the name of an old film. Although I'm sure the guys in the band also use it to refer to reefer.


Posted by slash:
FORGET THE WORST NAMES.........THE BEST ARE GNR AND LED ZEPPELIN!


Posted by IAA:
Any band name with numbers in it(this is an annoying trend as of late), any white band with a black-sounding name, any band too stupid to think of an original name(eg. Godsmack), any band that chooses a name that starts with the letter A(or numbers) just so their name is always first on lists and, finally, any band name with the prefix SUPER(i.e. Superchuck, Supergrass, etc).


Posted by iamsocool:
nevermind my pick last post. 'Rapid Eye Movements' is the cheesiest name for a band. Of course, you may know it better by its three initials


Posted by Brandon:
okay i didn't really feel like readin this whole thing so maybe somebody all ready said these stupid names but i think the cheesiest are Linkin Park Boyhitscar Shirly Temple's Pussy (Stone temple pilot's original name


Posted by iamsocool:

Posted by Andy:
It's funny how antiguys list doesn't include the names of the very worst type of band. The 80's sh*tty hair-glam-widdle-LAME a$$ bands. The crappiest of ALL the bands.

What's so funny about that? Most of those band names are too generic - Poison, Warrant etc. Are they lame? Sure but that's too easy. aG

There's a band called godheadSilo. No, not gODHEAD... godheadSilo.

Posted by dreadbuddy:
I hate it when bands call themselves the [insert lead singer's name] Band, like Dave Matthews Band, or Steve Miller Band, it gives no credit to the backing musicians without which the lead singer would sound like crap

Posted by LindaK.:
Superchunk - I feel like I'm gonna barf whenever I hear that name! Ridah, thanks for clarifying how GNR got its name. I knew that and everyone else needed to be informed. SubXavier, Dennis Wilson (drummer) was the only Beach Boy who surfed. I enjoyed everyone's comments!


Posted by DLT:
I think Guns N Roses is supposed to be like War and Peace, Yin and Yang, Good and Evil. That kind of thing. BBmak is the worst name I have heard , it's as bad as O-Town.


Posted by TCCBig Dumb Face!!:
Big Dumb Face - Wes Borland side project!


Posted by marshall:
D-12 !! Which is stand for Dirty-Dozen!


Posted by RidahNY:
Everyone is criticizing Guns N' Roses for a band name when they don't even know how it really came about. Everyone thinks it means some gay sh*t like Good vs. Evil or War and Peace etc. It DOESN'T. Guns N' Roses is in reference to the two bands that combined members and became GNR. Axl was the front man for a band called Hollywood Rose while Slash and Steven Adler came from L.A. Guns. Also, original guitarist, Tracii Guns, who quit 6 months before "Appetite for Destruction" was released went to L.A. Guns afterwards. The equation is (Hollywood Rose + L.A. Guns = Guns N' Roses.)


Posted by Rondogg:
The "cheesiest" names I ever heard would have to be .... Did you watch VH1's Top 40 hair metal bands? The bands from 40 to 11 reeked "dank" cheese.


Posted by pegas:
What the hell is a backstreet boy?
This is the cheesiest band names, since they are not a band they don't qualify - aG

I think guns n roses is supposed to be like war and peace, good and bad, yin and yang, positve and negative, etc, . I think a better name would have been Alien Tit Farm.


Posted by Gin:
I like their music but I would have to say Alien Ant Farm. Dog Fashion Disco is cheesy as well.


Posted by Mutcer:
Yeah, GnR kicked monkey-ass!


Posted by Rondogg:
Hey now, Don't be dissin' G'N'R, They kicked major ass back in the day! Remember it is not the name that counts, It's how much ass you kick!


Posted by john:
guns and roses' name came from the fact that two bands came together: L.A. Guns and Hollywood rose (or something like that)


Posted by anything:
Guns N' Roses is cheesy. "Guns" and "Roses" are 2 unrelated words, and they don't have any relevant meaning to it. It's very illogical and dumb. It should be like 'Guns N' Rifles' or 'Trees N' Roses', y'know what i'm sayin?

Posted by Mutcer:
What does backsteet boys mean? Is it supposed to mean that they are from the 'hood' or the 'street' or some sh*t? Skeletor rode around on a big cat and so did He-Man, does anyone remember if She-Ra rode around on a big pussy?

I believe that the cheesiest band name I can think of definately has to be "Slipknot"..I hate that band with a fu*king passion!!! After everything they have against everyone..f*ck them all, yes, I do admit that they have a couple of good songs, but they themselves suck d*ck


Posted by Rondogg:
The cheesiest band name I can think off would have to be "Nitzer's Ebb" Ever heard off them?


Posted by amazing:
Sorry guys, I spelled it wrong. It's Smashing Pumpkins, but I think you all got the point


Posted by amazing:
I don't know guys. Despite the fact that some band names flat out suck....the majority of the music rocks. For example, what's up with Smashind Pumpkins? Th name is dumb, but the music totally reeks redemption for the band. And also Pink Flloyd, a little odd, but again redeemed by the music. Keep on rockin in the free world!


Posted by on the telephone:
INXS, can't believe nobody mentioned that. And any band that their name comes from someone's last name.


Posted by steev:
Foo Fighters is a badass name. It's was what ww2 soldiers called UFOs.


Posted by Mutcer Re;me:
Jeez, calm down dude, have a spliff or something. A band name I like is 'Monkey Knife Fight'. A band name I hate is spineshank. Sh*tshank more like.


Posted by name withheld:
hands down the stupidest band name i ever heard in my life has got to be a tie between Jerk Chicken (my old high school's 'best' band) and Rainbow Butt Monkeys (Finger Eleven's original name). Those names are beyond stupid.

Ok this is off topic but what the hell is Mutcer? You like having sex with muts? Or just women that look like muts? You seem pretty obsessed with glam rock. Guys in spandex get you all hot and bothered? You shouldn't talk sh*t on Pantera little boy, Dimebag will spank you.

I like stoopid punk names.

Your names all suck! School sucks and IM never coming back here!


Posted by SubXavier:
Ok, thanks Rondogg... Stryper is pretty cheesy, too... and I know what KoRn means. *smirks* I doubt it's commentable on this board, but... go find a good KoRn page (best I can think of is www.kornweb.com) and look through the Meanings section.


Posted by KiFi62:
KoRn! Of all the names I don't understand, this is among the weirdest, I mean, does anyone know what it means?!

"edens crush" is a corny name plus they suck (all pop music does)


Posted by punk snot:
Dave Matthews Band, Creed, Eminem, Moby, no wait, they all just suck.


Posted by Mutcer:
Stryper is awful as a name and in it's spelling too. Like Enuff Z Nuff. Or even def Leppard. They remind me of tigerskin print spandex pants (SHUDDER).

Blink 182


Posted by GREENMUSE:
i think its the purple panther skelator used to ride,oooh im showing my age here.but it just came to me,stryper is a canidate for the cheesiets award


Posted by Mutcer:
What does 'Pantera' mean? Is it something to do with the Thundercats?


Posted by yoda:
all time cheesiest, The The


Posted by GREENMUSE:
i think quiot riot,white lion,any band with the word "tones" in the title.and pantera are all just cheesy,im talkin lindburger cheese,and just silly would be skankin pickle


Posted by Mutcer:
I agree with 'Me' about bands like nickleback and sh*t like that. I hate it when a band appears on mtv and then all of a sudden a sh*tload more appear with similar style cr*ppy names. And all those sh*t bandnames like buckcherry are fu*kin gay as hell. RHCP Rule. A lot of you people don't seem to have a grasp of the idea of what 'cheesy' is.


Posted by Rocky Racoon:
A big you idiot to Xander and the chessiest band name is a tie between The the and the red hot chill peppers


Posted by Rondogg:
Damn There are so many cheesy named bands out in this planet, I just wanna throw up my Hieneken! Yo subXavier, the meaning behind "Reo Speedwagon" is this, back in the day there was a company that made trucks, the company was called "Reo Speedwagon". Why a band would name itself after a truck is beyond me. Hey guys why don't we call our band "The Ford F150's"?


Posted by Josh:
I could really care less about the name, as long as it's good music.


Posted by jungle miss:
papa roach


Posted by ME:
i hate those bands with those stupid meaningless names like soulcracker, nickelback, buckcherry, flickerstick or something stupid like crackerbutt


Posted by Mutcer:
Butthole surfers is not cheesy. Psychedelic furs is cool too. Survivor, now that is ch-ch-cheesy. I would love to see a band called 'The Titties'.


Posted by SubXavier:
REO Speedwagon sounds pretty cheesy, but I don't know what it means... and what about the Psychedelic Furs?


Posted by Butt head:
(Smacks Beavis in the face) Dammit Beavis!!! That's not a real band. Huh huhuhuhuhuh...I know a stupid band name...Yanni.


Posted by Beavis:
heh hehehehehehehe...You forgot Mr. Bungholio and His Twirling Fartknockers.


Posted by Warp:
Bizkit is not the stupidest, the butthole surfers are by far the worst.


Posted by Mr T:
iron maidens trademark "font" is the ultimate in cheese

Worst name: Big King Booboo Pus. they're from Montreal, don't ya know.


Posted by Mutcer:
All glam-metal band names. And EnuffzNuff. The spelling alone is cheese-tastic.


Posted by TheAphexChin:
Helloween...Crazy Town...Any Rap Artist associated with Master P...errr....I really can't be bothered to think of any more.


Posted by Xandar:
Korn is the worst name ever. However the first two albums rocked my balls off. F*ck them for selling out. i hope it was worth it johny boy!


Posted by the max:
I think that you could probably name about every death metal band ever tied at number 6.


Posted by Mindskrew:
Is Front 242 Cheesy? or 6 feet under(i know it doesnt follow the format), or The MC5 for that matter? Just a question, but yea i would agree with the top 5, however there are some more additions you could make. Um, the largest majority of rap artists out there, CHEESY, and well yea. im not going to babble.


Posted by iamsocool:
bizkits not the cheesiest... but nevertheless cheesy
