Electric Banana - The Band With Appeal

I have a CD of a SF hardcore band named FKFACE, although I think for this band, the name really suits them. I would also have to agree that ANL CNT is the #1 worst band name in my book, How in the hell do you get a gig with a name like that? When I was a kid I thought that the Butthole Surfers was the coolest name ever!!!!

I just started up a band called The Butts. I think it's awesome, some others don't agree.

Science friction burns my fingers.

Who? Them. Love? Yes.
Strawberry Alarm Clock?

Ever heard of "The Disco Biscuits" ? Jam band psychedelic techno funk rock hybrid. That name bugs me.

Don't know how old you are, but in the 70s, "Disco Biscuit" was the nickname for Quaaludes. But you're right, not a great name for a band.

Enjoy every minute

The name is fitting then. There is also a band called Gorilla Biscuits - late 80's early 90's New York Hardcore Punk band. Their name is also derived from a NYC slang term for a Quaalude. By the way, I am 25.

Psychefunkapus...I loved those guys. The Swimming Pool Ques...not so much.

Splodgenessabounds and an early 1977 french punk band called the Stinky Toys.

There's plenty out there right now - like The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus.

There are a bunch of "bad" band name when you think about it, but when the music is good you just sort of forget and it fits. Like Echo and the Bunnymen or Mission of Burma (which actually is kinda cool.). Etc . . .

I approve of this band name. If I make my way out west, I want to join.

Tired of not getting gigs?
Record producers not returning your calls?

Maybe your band name needs re-energizing. Try the amazing new Pappa Surf approved rebranding formula. How much does this cost you ask? Well, for a limited time only this amazing offer is not $399.99, not $199.99, not even 99.99, if you call now this proven system will cost you only $19.99. But don't just take our word for it, see some of these amazing transformations for yourself:

Take your old name, let's say The Penetrators, apply the proven formula, 1) spell the first name incorrectly, and 2) replace C with K, S with Z, PH with F, etc. and viola, you have the hip new name:

Da Penetrataz

But Papa, does it work with any name? YES YES

The Treblemakers (oh man, I feel a Zak flame coming) becomes Dee Treblemacaz

Don't delay, operators are standing by now.

I was in a punk band called the Human Beings. Man, that's a crappy name.

There was in a band in the 60's called the "Human Beinz". They remained obscure and unknown too. Confused

http://www.thecalicowall.com/rev60s/garage.html

I wouldn't call thethe Human Beinz obscure and unknown. They had a top 40 hit that was all over the airwaves: "Nobody But Me". One-hit wonders, sure, but not unknown and obscure.

I always thought Borax would be a good name for a band.. (or first son) Very Happy

Two of my previous bands:
"The Cretins" (rock) and "Subversion" (punk).
"oestmann" isn't much better... Confused

My nomination for bands (there are at least two) least likely to tour Japan. Enola Gay.

This is Noel. Reverb's at maximum an' I'm givin' 'er all she's got.
