I don't listen to their music but I've always liked the band names:
... And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of The Dead
and
Godspeed You! Black Emperor
Those names are just so ridiculous, I love them.

You should listen to their music
I've never listened to a GYBE record, but I did see them live once and it was incredible (and incredibly LOUD). I really should check out their recorded stuff, but I have this sense that it just might not match up to that night π
Yeah they're absolutely a live experience, you just can't get the same hit by listening on record
Both of those are amazing bands, and their music is fire.
I was just about to write GYBE
Butthole Surfers
And they win best documentary name for the forthcoming release: Butthole Surfers: The Hole Truth and Nothing Butt (https://metrocinema.org/event/butthole-surfers-the-hole-truth-and-nothing-butt/).
Spinal Tap
Idk, but Cherry Poppin' Daddies is definitely the worst.
Itβs only slightly better than my favorite Cherry Poppinβ Daddies tribute band The Hymen Bustinβ Fathers

The name is kinda meh, but Party Cannon wins the logo contest on every poster I've seen them on.
Yo why is that more metal than the other logos
Those completely illegible metal(?) band logos are hilarious, and the Party Cannon logo is doubly hilarious!

Gorillaz, because a collection of gorillas is called 'a band of gorillas'.
Might also be why it's the worst name.
Edit: apparently 'a troop of gorillas' is used a lot too.
