Exit Clov! :p

I also hate all these single syllable names that have become the rage with the 15 minute crowd.

I guess also would come into play, those names that either are too close to a famous band (Smashing Orange), or all too similar such as:

Superdrag
Supergrass
Superjesus
Supersuckers
Superdiamond

Screaming Cheetah Wheelies

Those two always come immediately to mind; I'm sure I'll think of dozens more later.

I didn't see this post till just now, and after seeing the author, I knew immediately what your choice was. Maybe you should come out on the 16th and see them play.

Honorable mentions,

String Cheese Incident


Phish (spell it right for God's sake)

All those other mis-spelled names like Mystikal or whatever it is.

Good bands, bad names

The New Deal
Broken Social Scene
…And You Will Know Us By The Trail of Dead
James Taylor Quartet
The Sea And Cake
(people always confuse it as two bands, The Sea, which they've never heard of, and Cake)

Perhaps the all time worst: Insane Clown Posse
