The Beatles They were once named the worst-named band in history (although I disagree with that assessment, pun names suck) John Cafferty and the Beaver Brown Band
Hoobastank (don't like their music that much, though) Korn (just sounds weird) A band with music I like and with an awesome name is 'Orgy'. =D Funny. I know.
[QUOTE="pvtdonut54"]Queen, for my favorite band that IS a very girly name ( yes Freddie Mercury was gay )YourOldFriend
Freddie Mercury was not gay at best he was bi.
i don't think no one knows for sure if he was gay or bi, I just think was gay.
From Wikipedia:
Â
Sexual orientation
While some critics have suggested that Mercury hid his sexual orientation from the public, other sources refer to the singer as having been "openly gay".In fact, Mercury referred to himself as gay in a 1974 interview with NME magazine On the other hand, he would often distance himself from partner Jim Hutton during public events in the 1980s. A writer for a gay online newspaper felt that audiences may have been overly naïve about the matter: "While in many respects he was overtly queer his whole career ('I am as gay as a daffodil, my dear' being one of his most famous quotes), his sexual orientation seemed to pass over the heads of scrutinising audiences and pundits (both gay and straight) for decades." John Marshall of Gay Times expressed the following opinion in 1992: "He [Mercury] was a 'scene-queen', not afraid to publicly express his gayness but unwilling to analyse or justify his life ...It was as if Freddie Mercury was saying to the world, 'I am what I am. So what?' And that in itself was a statement."

[QUOTE="Yagr_Zero"]But as for cool named bands, how about Death Cab for Cutie.CrazyKilljoy117
You got to be joking :| haha...yea. That is, imo, NOT a good name :P However, to be fair, i did hear a song (acoustic) by them through my girlfriend, and can't say i hated it :) To answer the question though...I'd say probably Cunninlynguists. Sounds cool as first, but once trying to say the name in public you do get some dirty looks :lol:. Ah well. Still some of the best hip-hop has to offer.
death cab for cutie ( the name is like wtf?.. when you think about it ) megadeth... love them, but if you think of the name seriously.. its kinda corny.... although megadeath is a real world meaning 1000 deaths from an atomic bomb.
rainbow - cmon richie blackmoore you gotta make a more many name for your band than that ... right? i swear him and dio just loved them rainbows.. rainbow in the dark, rainbow rising.... catch the rainbow... exc... alice in chains .. what is this a fetish movie? blue oyster cult .. couldnt you make a cult about something cooler? dragonforce - no need for explanation rage against the machine - what machine are we talking about and why are you raging against it? system of a down... what does that even mean?
I like them well enough, but they're a pop rock band called... The Killers? Its a strange fitting name. Well, they got it from a New Order video, and New order is great.
Bowling for Soup...I mean where did they even get that... The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus is rather interesting as well :P Both of the bands are amazing though
[QUOTE="tri-edge99"]Tool A*** C*** Buzzov*en My Bloody Valentine Yndi Halda Fly Pan Am Trans Am Wormphlegm Edit: Oh, and Meanwhile, Back In Communist Russia... Tool is my favorite band and if you know what it means, it's a pretty cool name. But I agree with the rest, even though I don't know any of them. But for my choice... Minus the Bear - awesome band, bad name.
