Playlouder - Music is the Network

With the influx of cds we receive at Playlouder Towers each day, we get to see some shockingly bad band names.

But every now and then, you come across a gem... I believe the band Rhythm Method have one of the best I've heard in a while.

I never quite got over Poi Dog Pondering

the parent teacher association

extra points if the band is actually comprised of soccer moms!

nah, just NY scenesters. Great name though. Wish I'd thunkuvit

How about City Death?

spent the weekend trying to think of a new band with a decent name, and then i got it :

Ringo Deathstarr

ok, they may just be a bunch of early days Marychain wannabes, but damn, they do it in style.

Danananananananackroyd makes me chuckle.

A friend and onced thought of The U.P.P (for Underage Pregnancy Problems). We were supposed to make a top 1 dance hit in the UK to make money for the summer... We finally went camping...
