Flipp in Terror Firmer (they play at the frathouse kegger, when Chadster get's off'd)
Thorn in Tromeo & Juliet
KISS in Detroit Rock City (another given)
GWAR in Empire Records (although that's more a video, but a scene was shot solely for the movie)

Well, a lesser-known band by the name of Helmet was in the Jerky Boys movie.  Although the movie itself was pretty bad, but the band is good.  And wasn't Offspring in the movie Idle Hands?  Maybe I'm losing it, but I could've sworn that they were.  That's all that I know of off-hand, though.

yup, the Offspring were in Idle Hands, doing Blitz Kreig Bop, Blink 182 was in American Pie(2/3 of the band), Sugar Ray was in Fathers Day,Reel Big Fish were in BASEketball.  RUN DMC were in Krush Groove, as was LL cool J. That's all I can remember for now.

[Brother Ragnarok]

What the hell?  No one mentioned the fact that Lemmy from Motorhead was the narrator in Tromeo and Juliet, and the cab driver in Hardware.
Also, Guitar Wolf, one of the COOLEST GODDAMN BANDS IN THE WORLD!!! starred in two movies.  Wild Zero and Sore Losers.  Both are a trip to watch, especially Sore Losers.
Everyone talks about White Zombie in Airheads, but no one ever talks about one of my favorite bands, the Galactic Cowboys, who play the Sons of Thunder.

The vandals and guttermouth are in That Darn Punk

Or how about Autograph in "Like Father, Like Son" with Dudley Moore and Kirk Cameron??

Remember Autograph?

They sang "Turn Up The Radio" which was released in 1984.

They are also the ONLY rock band I have ever met.

They were signing autographs here in town back in 1984 when I was 10 years old.  

I remember I had on a pair of black parachute pants with all those zippers and my grandpa took me there.  

They were doing autographs at a place called The Record Bar which is now a Sam Goody store.

I had bought their cassette tape "Sign In Please" and had all of them sign the inside paper part of it!

I still have it.

It's faded to a dull yellow after all these years but all of their signatures are intact!

(and by the way.....Cannibal Corpse was in the first Ace Ventura film!!.....not the 2nd!)

[Deej]

Holy Balls! ASH! What color were your parachute pants? I had a blue pair, a red pair, a gray pair, and a black pair that had zippers down the legs which you could unzip to show a silver stripe! I also had the Thriller jacket! Yep, I said it, I had the thriller jacket, thankfully my mom wouldn't buy me the spangly glove or let me get a perm. I'm also thankful that I discovered the Ramones shortly after this period! whew! What might have happened?

[Sam]

The Circle Jerks were in Repo Man, and T.S.O.L., D.I., and The Vandals were in Suburbia.

[Ash]

They were black parachute pants.

And I also had my hair feathered!!

LOL!!!

HAHA!!

[Vermin Boy]

Not really a band, but my favorite musician cameo is Jello Biafra as the FBI agent in Tapeheads. Busting them for distributing pornography, no less.

[Pete B6K]

Skunk Anansie were in 'Strange Days', playing the big millenium party at the end.

Letters from Clio appear at the end of 10 things I hate about you on the top of the school during the ending credits.
Also the Offspring appear in Idle hand(s?).
Also theres a damn good band in from Dusk Till Dawn although unfortunately they aren't famous...yet!

[Evan3]

Some obvious ones are
Alice Cooper in Wayne's World (we're not worthy)
Smashmouth in Rat Race (the kid says "whoah its smashmouth")
Rammstein in XXX (the best part of the movie)

[Fearless Freep]

WASP in "Dungeonmaster"
The Tritones in "Rock and Roll Nightmare"
