Psycho Circus

I was listening to an album the other day by an 80s rock band called Snatch. They had an EP in 1985 called (I kid you not), "If The Party's In Your Mouth...We're Comin'" and I was just thinking about stupid band names and really bad titles for records. The ones that immediately sprung to mind were early 90s grunge bands; Dracula Milk Toast and Cat Butt.

Cat Butt's album was called "Journey To The Centre Of Cat Butt":bouncegiggle:


Can anyone think of any others?

This isn't going to make it past the censoring software, but:

Anal C**t

From Wikipedia: "The name Anal C**t came from Seth Putnam's attempt 'to get the most offensive, stupid, dumb, etc. name possible'."

I would say they succeeded in that goal.

I don't know anything about the band, I gather they were an attempt to be deliberately awful and offensive, and yet they produced music for two decades until the singer's recent death. I don't own any of their music. The only reason I know about it is because a guy came into the library wearing a t-shirt with the band's name.
Every dead body that is not exterminated becomes one of them. It gets up and kills. The people it kills, get up and kill.

I'd heard the name years ago, gave them a listen about a week ago...Terrible. 1-2min long songs with jaw-droppingly offensive lyrics and every song sounds exactly the same. Probably the worst band I've ever heard.

Ruby Slippers. A hair band from L.A., one of those dime a dozen hair bands from the mid to late 80's. I never saw them, I just remember seeing ads for their shows, which they marketed heavily, and seeing their super quaffed hair band regalia. I didn't need to see them to know what that show would be like. Not that I hate all hair bands, some were okay, but Ruby Slippers (just the name alone makes me shudder) just epitomized the worst hair bands, the guys that just removed all the grit from rock and roll.

These kids in my high school had a worst band name contest. My memory is a little hazy about why or how they came up with the winner but it was Farm Farm.

Victory - You Bought It, You Name It

I own that album. I don't actually think that's a bad title.

Amazing! I have no idea what they sound like, I just could never get past the ultra quaffed regalia to give them a chance.

Wow. That picture accompanying the song is even more androgeny-filled than what I remember from their show ads. That's a lot of women's clothing going on. Not that I'm judging. And a cover of These Boots Are Made For Walking. Priceless.
