Hi metalstormers,

The title is clear. Please remember and reply with the weirdest or funniest metal band names that you have come accross during your life in the scene.
It is in fact almost impossible to name a metal band nowadays that is not being used already, above all, if you want to give it a metalrelated name involving words like Hell, Warrior, Doom, Death, Thrash, Black, Red, Heavy, Pink...SORRY slip of the tongue, Steel, Fire and the like.
Last time I was in a band we were thinking in having the most strange name as possible so as to attract attention and, at the same time, not to be sued by another band with already that name. We thought about choosing: "Where is Bin Laden?" and translated from Spanish: 600 mb of Porno or Anita's great belches -Anita is a friend of mine with body of a model, face of an angel, not metalhead but a bit posh... and that belches like a drunk truckdriver-. Whenever she belches, everybody looks at me or another boy in the group.

The weirdest names I have heard from established bands are "Cadáveres de Tortugas" that means "Turtle corpses" that it is really twisted and weird and the best one: "Bodies in the gears of the apparatus" Fuck, that's a name. Complex and re-twisted.

I remember as well a discussion with a friend of mine that liked that musical genre that was called "Noise" 10 years ago. There were very strange band names in that label. Once he was naming some of them and we were laughing, then he said something that I did not understood. I said: what? Vaginal stone? -In Spanish: piedra vaginal.
He said: NO, weird, you are twisted. That name makes nonsense. PERA, Pera vaginal! -IN English: Vaginal pear. The real name was even more strange that the one I understood.

Well. Please tell me the weirdest names you have come accross during your life and we will laugh or even fear the twisted minds of their members.
S.O.D. Stormtroopers of Death is one to fear.

Bye.

I will say Ufomammut and Electric Wizard...really crazy names but fits perfectly with the music [stoner/doom metal]

Two goddamn good bands btw. Ufomammut is an incrdibly overrated band from Italy!

To stay on Topic....Creamface


Overrated? I suppose you mean underrated or overlooked?

I've always thought Nekrogoblikon was a quite odd choice for a name. But then again it's a quite odd band overall.

Then we almays have Sunn 0)) who named themselves after Sunn amps' logo, which can be read that way.

!T.O.O.H.! is supposed to be an acronym for The Obliteration Of Humanity so it's not as weird as you might think.

Nanowar of steel is a weird one if ya ask me.

However the weirdest name for a band was my friends old band, They were called "The Radioactive Vaginas"

If you can come up with a worse name then that you have problems.

Goblin Cock was a really good ring to it, really rolls off the tongue.

Rumpelstiltskin Grinder is a strange one, it doesn't sound too crazy, but try and think of how someone would come up with that name.

Didn't say they weren't. They got quite a strange (and maybe a little laughable) name is all.

From MA:

The band's name is taken from the last words of a man in the H.P. Lovecraft story "The Rats In The Walls".

They appearently play drone/noise/ambient so I'm not surprised if they have all fucked up names and shit.

Meh, I thought about editing my post to write this, but you were quicker.
Still, as I haven't read anything from H. P. Lovecraft, I can't get it - what does it mean. It's definitely not a regular word or name, that's all I know. I bet this is directly related with those rats.

I haven't read that particular one really. I don't know if it's Cthulhu-related. If it is, it's probably the name of some ancient ultra-god that's gonna destroy mankind in a great ocean of corrosive sludge or something. Otherwise, knowing Lovecraft, it could be absolutely anything....

I really like the Lovecraft stories though.

I have read that story, but there is not much info given on the 'meaning' of these words. They were the last 'words' of "Delapore" or "De La Poer", the main character of the story (first name is not given), who goes completely insane at the end of the story.

It's a pretty good one. If I recall correctly it's not Cthulhu mythos-related per se (some entities mentioned?). Don't remember where "Ungl'unl'rrlh'chchch" come up tho, and now it's bugging me.

It's not related to the Chtulhu mythos, although there is a wall with paintings on it (or something like that), which supposedly looks like one of the gods (?) in the Chtulhu mythos. Haven't read the Chtulhu stories (yet), so I can't tell exactly.

But as far as I know, there really is no meaning to these words. I'm more curious to the meaning of the latin (?), real (?) he speaks before the gibberish. Magna Mater and some other stuff.

Definitely Latin, at least that Magna Mater. But I'm sure you knew that.
