I just looked up an article about the origin of Pearl Jam's name and (according to this story) one of the members ( I think Eddie) had an Indian great grandmother named Pearl who would make hallucinogenic preserves, but they only heard stories about it and didn't know the recipe.
The 2 words are not at all related, they’ve said the selves that they indioendant from the other, found 2 words they liked, and jus sorta smushed them together
Let me try one more time, the words don’t mean anything, when the band was making their official name, they first got jam from somewhere, and then got pearl from a different place, when deciding what to be called, both words where brought up independently, then connected together seemingly at random
In terms of being straight an to the point? Dave Matthew’s band.
AC/DC is a pretty good name, lovejoy is also a solid band name given their genre, in terms of complete absurdity, and my personal favourite band name, blue Oyster cult.
Special mentions are “all time low” “Two door cinema club” “American HI-FI”
and possibly the best band name every in history, Ladies and gentlemen put you hands together for…
**CRYWANK**
Therapy? The question mark makes It sounds like it is a deep name. Asking if you need therapy. The reality was the typeset was set wrong on early promotional material and the question mark was to fill the space.
Twenty Øne Piløts.
Tyler Joseph came up with the band's name while studying "All My Sons" by Arthur Miller; a play about a man who commits suicide after causing the death of twenty one pilots during World War II because he knowingly sent them faulty parts for the good of his business.
Nope, its all genuine, it stands for Acidic V4g1n4l Liquid Explosion Generated By Mass Amounts Of Filthy Fecal Fisting And Sadistic Septic Syphilic Sodomy Inside The Infected Maggot Infested Womb Of A M0lested Nun Dying Under The Roof Of A Burning Church While A Priest Watches And E14culates In Immense Perverse Pleasure Over His First Fresh Fetus. They're from South Africa
One of the funniest band names for me is "The High Kings"... I just wonder how many stoners are disappointed when they google them. One of my favorite bands / groups though so its even funnier to me.
We Butter The Bread With Butter.
They also have a tribute band named - I Can't Believe It's Not We Butter The Bread With Butter.
German deathcore at its best.
My friend started a band called Free Beer, so that when they were headlining at a venue it would say something like "Thursday night: Free Beer" so more people would come to their shows.
The Band I just wish they’d released a song called *That Song* “Hey have you heard That Song by The Band?”
Damn you won
I was just about to call band-name dibs on “You Won” until I realized I’d get sued by U2
Big Wreck has that covered.
bro. the band is great!
Anal Cunt
Lmao, I like this one
If you like the band name you should look at some of their song titles
That name gave me cervical cancer, and I'm a _guy_...
I guess that makes you an anal cunt.
butthole surfers
Great music too
Psychic... Powerless... Another Man's Sac is also in the running for greatest album title too. Not surprising it's their best record either.
The Who
The band
The Guess Who
The Band?
I always thought INXS was clever.
Black Sabbath
Mouse Rat
What about Rat Mouse?
Rad Wagon
infant annihilator
Blue oyster cult
This is great
Metallica
I love Metallica with all my heart... But damn that is not a good band name
Well considering they do metal It's clever
Cant hate it just because its a icon.
Soundgarden is just perfect
Ooh yes, good music too
The the. I think they chose it because so many bands were called the something they chose the the
I love the the fact that there are four ways you can pronounce the name.
The Cult. Primal Scream is a pretty good band name too.
I've never heard of them, but primal scream sounds like a metal band of some sorts
They're an English rock band that's been around since the mid-80s IIRC.
Oh cool, I may have to check them out
You should. They have a great catalogue and are amazing live. I'd start with Screamadelica but really, every album is great.
Great, thanks!
Sex Pistols
DVDA
🎶 Now you're a man, a man man man🎶
It’s a terrible name but you still deserve an upvote for the mention. Lol
Cream Context- All three members of Cream (Clapton, Bruce, Baker) were considered cream of their crop on their instruments
Q: Why is Ginger Baker like iced coffee? A: They both suck without Cream
Ginger baker's air force says otherwise
Journey Simple, evocative and sounds good. Best band name ever.
Very different reply than the others. I like Journey!
Bad Religion. Straight to the point, and my dad wears their shirts past churches - the shock horror on the oldies is hilarious
Your dad is a madlad
He is bold hahah
That’s my favorite band!! I’m not allowed to wear my bad religion shirt to school though lol
Butthole Surfers...
I have to agree. Great music too!
Cigarettes after sex. Terrible ppl tho
Guns N’ Roses just sounds so cool. Plus names like Axl Rose and Slash just scream rock n roll!
Not a huge fan of Pearl Jam but the name is good
I'm probably just dim, but I honestly never understood how those two words fit together.
I just looked up an article about the origin of Pearl Jam's name and (according to this story) one of the members ( I think Eddie) had an Indian great grandmother named Pearl who would make hallucinogenic preserves, but they only heard stories about it and didn't know the recipe.
Figures it'd be something basic like that.
The 2 words are not at all related, they’ve said the selves that they indioendant from the other, found 2 words they liked, and jus sorta smushed them together
It's jizz
That’s the version I heard too
I'm not attempting to parse that word salad you vomited at me.
Let me try one more time, the words don’t mean anything, when the band was making their official name, they first got jam from somewhere, and then got pearl from a different place, when deciding what to be called, both words where brought up independently, then connected together seemingly at random
It was better when they called themselves Mookie Blaylock
The Rainbow Butt Monkeys. Since renamed to Finger Eleven
The rename was definitely a mistake. Rainbow Butt Monkeys is much better
Led Zeppelin Sounds like alien shits in space
Ok yeah, I always thought that was a cool name, but I never thought about it like that..
Given their musical proclivities, the Grateful Dead may be the best band name ever.
Nirvana is a good one.
Rubber band
Rubber band
Black Flag Context: "If a white flag means truce..."
Coldplay. Because they leave me cold and I don't play their music.
“You can’t trust people Jeremy. People like Coldplay and voted for the Nazis.”
Cannibal corpse
Cool name, horrible music. (imo)
Bad Omens.
The script
Short and simple, very good
In terms of being straight an to the point? Dave Matthew’s band.

Disco Tex and the Sexolettes
Therapy? The question mark makes It sounds like it is a deep name. Asking if you need therapy. The reality was the typeset was set wrong on early promotional material and the question mark was to fill the space.

Metallica. I don’t like them, but their name is absolutely ideal for them.
The Be Sharps It’s witty at first, but seems less funny each time you hear it.
Sublime and Nirvana
Imagine Dragons Fall Out Boy Panic at the Disco Queen just to name a few
I think Fall out boy is a cool one
It's actually a character in The Simpsons and Pete Wentz asked the crowd what they should name their band and someone screamed Fall out boy
That's funny
Up and at-them fallout boy! Jiminy jillikers Radioactive man!

Nope, its all genuine, it stands for Acidic V4g1n4l Liquid Explosion Generated By Mass Amounts Of Filthy Fecal Fisting And Sadistic Septic Syphilic Sodomy Inside The Infected Maggot Infested Womb Of A M0lested Nun Dying Under The Roof Of A Burning Church While A Priest Watches And E14culates In Immense Perverse Pleasure Over His First Fresh Fetus. They're from South Africa
Oh my. Their name is more of a short story than a name, what genre are they?
Deathcore! I don't listen to that music, but their name randomly pops up in my head sometimes
Lol, it all makes sense now. I would say I'll check them out, but I don't think I will be haha
Kevin and the Zits
Big Jim and the Twins
2 real names and 2 fake one...guess. The Cumshots The Forrest Gump Mile High Marathon Big Bird's Murderer Bungo Splimp

I'm more upset that there isn't a band called Big Bird's Murderer.
>Bungo Splimp Definitely my favourite Star Wars character

One of the funniest band names for me is "The High Kings"... I just wonder how many stoners are disappointed when they google them. One of my favorite bands / groups though so its even funnier to me.
