The unapologetic childish mockery of stupidly stupid dumb band names thread

edited February 2010 in Fight Club
Ironically, the band name on the bottle to christen this thread with is...

Tapestry of Honor

Stupid fucking name, that. It would've only been funnier had they used the word 'dignity' instead.

However, it gets more ironic. They only have one single up on Amie, two on the Myspace (one which is titled 'unfinished'); and it's not bad. I bought it on Amie and threw a rec up for it.
As far as I can tell, it's some dude in Utah that probably records stuff in a spare bedroom. In my rec, I encourage him to put more music up, and it's a sincere request.
I should've also encouraged him to get a real band name.

  • Prose in Rosette - I cringe every time I seen that name pop up.

    "Tapestry of honor"=Ehrenteppich--depiction of heroism or greatness meant to have some sort of pedagogical function.

    Or it could just mean the place where celebrities or dignitaries are received and let to an event (ie, Red Carpet).
  • @frogkopf - That one popped into my head as soon as I saw this thread title. There's a lot of bad band names that popup on Amie (I'm looking at you, Crimson Razorback) but that one comes across as trying way too hard.

    - Is no longer at Amie, or at least I can't find him.
  • Maybe he signed with the majors?
  • The Music has always remained the caketaker for me. Dorky beyond my capacity to describe.
  • One cannot forget the indelible Mr Meeble
  • No eyes rolling over Japanese Wartime Radioplays? (At least they are actually German.)
  • good band, lame name: dr. dog
  • I have trouble coming up with a stupidly stupid dumb band name, because almost all of them would apply.

    I'm currently listening to Neutral Milk Hotel. Seriously, what the hell does that mean? Meanwhile, earlier today on Amie Street I purchased Malachi, Hadouken!, and Bluebrain. Again, what?

  • All three of those band names mean something in the Movie Avatar!
  • In the freshly ripped today:
    Beatlesque Band
    - Lame !
  • I've not seen Avatar. I'm the only one. (I know you aren't serious).

    This is the only Malachi I'm familiar with:

  • I presume you all know this one...

    "Dead Monkeys are to split up again, according to their manager, Lefty Goldblatt. They've been in the business now ten years, nine as other groups. Originally the Dead Salmon, they became for a while, Trout. Then Fried Trout, then Poached Trout In A White Wine Sauce, and finally, Herring. Splitting up for nearly a month, they re-formed as Red Herring, which became Dead Herring for a while, and then Dead Loss, which reflected the current state of the group. Splitting up again to get their heads together, they reformed a fortnight later as Heads Together, a tight little name which lasted them through a difficult period when their drummer was suspected of suffering from death. It turned out to be only a rumor and they became Dead Together, then Dead Gear, which led to Dead Donkeys, Lead Donkeys, and the inevitable split-up. After nearly ten days, they reformed again as Sole Marnier, then Dead Sole, Rock Cod, Turbot, Haddock, Whitebait, the Plaices, Fish, Bream, Mackerel, Salmon, Poached Salmon, Poached Salmon In A White Wine Sauce, Salmon Marnier, and Helen Shapiro. This last name, their favorite, had to be dropped following an injunction and they split up again. When they reformed after a recordbreaking two days, they ditched the fishy references and became Dead Monkeys, a name which they stuck with for the rest of their careers. Now, a fortnight later, they've finally split up."

    The only Malachi I'm familiar with is spelled different:
    Malachai - Shadow Weaver Part 2

    - Yes I know it's far fetched, but it's such a lovely album.

    Malachi Favors, jazz musician and AACM alum.

    EDIT: Offered up as another Malachi, not a stupid name.

    A good band name should be mildly amusing at first, and then less and less funny each time you hear it.
  • The Ron Jeremy Experience would be a good name for a band - especially if you used lots of wah-wah and cowbell in the music.
  • An old friend of mine once swore me to secrecy on a band name he wanted to use, but I'm pretty sure that project is not coming to fruition. He wanted to start a ska band and call it: Ska Bayo

    On the list of band names I can't tell if I love or hate: Suburban Kids With Biblical Names and Scary Kids Scaring Kids. At the least they would probably both make better album titles.

    There's some pretty stupid metal band names arriving at Amie:

    Amoebic Dysentery
    Anal Blasphemy
    Ancient Wrath
    Anal Vomit
    Being Killed
    Christ Beheaded
    Corpsefukcing Art
    Eat the Living
    Grotesque Formation
    Total Devastation

    - Just to mention a few.
  • Not to mention A.P.A....ya know, since Valentine's Day is coming up.
  • This is a retarded album title, Jesus Life For Children Under 12 Inches by Kid Loco, click the link for a semi-porn album cover for an album with Jesus and Children in the title.
  • You beat me to it. Of course we could probably just set up an automatic post for every Metalhit.com release.
  • Yup, "so proud", part doo doo. I am highly irreverent, very much not PC, and not easily offended, but this kind of stuff is just revolting, just brutally coarse and stupid.
