Both the Bleu Chunks and the Durocs were names I hated because they were so stupid, but I ended up sort of enjoying when I got over the bad Pun.
(A Duroc is a large brick colored breed of pig)

OH, how could I forget 'The String Cheese incident'
Whatever the 'incident' was, I hope it was more exciting than their music.

Here's a bad album title - Gang Green's "Older, Budweiser." Combining that title with their name makes for ick.

I don't know why, but the three word band trend drives me nuts
My Chemical Romance
My Morning Jacket
Big Drill Car
Death Cab for Cutie (ok, that's 4)
I haven't heard these bands because I can't get past the names...

I always thought that the Actionslacks was a pretty lame name. Great band, bad name.

B.R.M.C. - anybody can name their band after a fictional motorcycle club from a 1950's Brando movie. If you guys REALLY wanna impress me call your band The Hells Angels.
Death Cab For Cutie - probably copped this name from the Beatles' "Magical Mystery Tour" movie. If asked to name the Bonzo Dog Band album this song appeared on I'm sure the silence would be deafening.
Flock of Seagulls - this band took off like a herd o' birds.

Captain Beyond. Stupid name, great band. At least the first two albums.

I agree, the 'Beatles' is totally lame.

"And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead". Geezuz, it takes a week just to say their name. Kinda makes "INXS" & "U2" look pretty good. At lease there's time to say their name before you go to bed.
And how do they shorten that? "I know", says the pretentious singer who's annoyed that we all don't think he's clever, "let's go by AYWKUBTTOD! That's much shorter and easier to remember".
