I submit Anal Cunt
!!! (Chk Chk Chk)
I love them as a band and the name makes sense once you know what it’s representing, but it’s terrible for searching or recommending to people.
Invisible Boyfriend. They later restyled themselves as Reptar
Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs. Such a pain in the arse when you have to refer to them.
Do you just say “seven pigs” or “Pigs 7”? Or do you literally say “pigs” seven times?
Are there seven of them?
(Looked it up, there are five of them and they abbreviate it to “Pigs x7”.)
There was a band called Pigface for a bit who were actually good
Cherry Poppin’ Daddies
They’re still touring, too!
But they played at the Super Bowl halftime show once so they are okay /s
Did they really? That may have been peak 90s
Relevant Todd in the Shadows that came out just a few days ago.
I remember when I was a pre teen and I wanted a Limp Bizkit CD for Christmas, my mother said that the name of the band sounded vulgar and she wouldn’t get it for me. Instead she got me a Cherry Poppin’ Daddies CD… Smh
I’m sure it was never about the band name. She probably heard Limp Bizkit on the radio and later in the day heard “Zoot Suit Riot” and was like “I know what will make my son fit in at Middle School. Big band swing music”
Sigh…
I like the Cherry Poppin’ Daddies tribute band, the Hymen Bustin Fathers
Nickelback
That’s the one i was thinking of - for anybody who hasn’t heard of them: that’s not the band name. That’s the acronym of the band name. Each one of those letters belongs to a word
Good old Xavleg
The Beatles
Cmon this is a great pun
The Oneders?
Or The Band.
Amazing band though
Honestly one of the best! An excellent lyricist and songwriter as well - although a little heavy handed on the harmonica.
Jimmy Eat World should be part of the conversation due to their acronym.

Who ever called them J.E.W.? Or when did they ever use that acronym themselves?
Perhaps tried to and then realised
Piss Bath.
Imagine Dragons
No, Imagine Dragons is kind of cool… if you believe them when they say it’s not their real band name. They originally came up with a phrase that meant something special to all of them, but they didn’t think it would work as a band name, so they anagrammed it into Imagine Dragons (I assume some letters were reused or left off somehow). So there’s this big mystery over what their real name is.
And that kind of plays into some dragon lore where if you know a dragon’s true name, you have control over it. You don’t know Imagine Dragons’ true name — no one does. Perfectly acceptable if you think a band having a secret name is lame. They’ve said at some point they may reveal it, but they’re afraid people will be disappointing, because as they originally said, it wouldn’t make for a cool name.
if you know a dragon’s true name, you have control over it.
I thought that was Devils??
This sounds even more dumber and pretentious.

Hoobastank
Keyboard drumset fucking werewolf
Not technically a band but I have always thought the DJ called ‘Breakfast’ was a terrible choice
