The Amazing Stroopwafels…
aural sects, an '80s group from Toronto.
Joey Hemlock, where did you get the name Elvis Hitler? I’ve actually heard it in a song.
Hoobastank. The name is so bad I hate just reading it. Typing it was worse. 
For that matter, Limp Bizkit sucks. The name is bad too.
I hired a band in Utah that consisted of the following:
[ul]
[li]2 lawyers[/li][li]A doctor[/li][li]An accountant[/li][li]The regional VP of Sealy Mattress[/li][/ul] Their name?
The Disgusting Brothers
Apparently they got their name at their first rehearsal. After going through several songs, none of which all of them knew, one of the lawyers stopped the “music” and proclaimed, “That was disgusting, brothers!”
Actually a very good cover bar band. I hired them for several events that KDLX put on in Southern Utah. And one time their opening act was a campy “Andrews Sisters” type act consisting of five women. They were:
The Saliva Sisters
Just try to promote a concert where the performers are “The Disgusting Brothers with special guests The Saliva Sisters.”
Actually had a good turn out for that one - over 1500 people!
A band around here was called Ackbar and the Howling Hindus.
The Disgusting Brothers story made me giggle out loud. 
Um, I actually remember these. Strawberry Alarm Clock played at a big-deal frat dance I went to. They sucked. (A one-hit wonder.)
At the same time, a local college band (actually, very good) called itself (themselves?) “Starvation.” Imagine the poster: “Dance to the sounds of Starvation.” Would that be–retching? Moaning? Great big tummy rumbles?
I just watched an episode of Aqua Teen Hunger Force (a very stupid cartoon) and somehow a character resembling Abe Lincoln holding a samurai sword came into play.
Samurai Lincoln. Now there’s a band name.
I always liked My Dog Has Hitler’s Brain.
Here’s a few…
Revolting Cocks
1000 Homo Dj’s.
My life with the Thrill Kill Kult.
Pig Destroyer.
Enjoy!!!
From Madison, WI circa 1984:
Phil Gnarly and the Tough Guys
Couch Flambeau
I found “JFKFC” very amusing. Is it a real band? Dave Eggers mentions it (I think as a fictional name) in A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius.
I kinda like Jack Lord’s Hair
Men with Chairs Up Their Noses actually weren’t bad.
There was a bar band in Iowa City ~1988 called Marsha Brady’s tits
Me First & The Gimme Gimmes
One of my favorite bands, one of my favorite band names. 
Ah hah! Found it…it took awhile of searching my old bookmarks, but this is relevantly amusing.
“Honest Bob and the Factory to Dealer Incentives”…hehehehe…love it…

I get “Bad request - no address for www. (etc)”. Could you maybe tell us what used to be there?
No that it’s a bad name, but I’m pretty sure STP stands for ( or stood for) Shirley Temple’s Pussy
Hurm…Odd, I just tested the link and got the site.
Anywho, it’s Absurd Notions, an online comic strip. The link goes to one where the characters discuss and ultimately reject the idea of starting a band, but still enjoy coming up with possible band names: Explodaphone, What By What, Touch The Pan, Anycheese, Death By Carob, etc.
Guess you had to be there.
Always thought that Hootie and The Blowfish was an appropriately stupid name for that band.
As for ridiculous band names, some friends of mine were in a band called Lorne Green’s Wet Nipple… apparently it was based upon a real incident.
