Fuck you level of bad: SHXCXCHCXSH

What are your thoughts on 999999999?

Bad: Stereophonics

Yeah, it is so flipping dull, not unlike the band's music. In a similar vein:

Good - Radiohead

Bad - Audioslave

 

[floatyhippyflower]

Also, I hate to say it, but...

Good - The Rolling Stones

Bad - The Beatles

I call them 81

Shit/bad DJ names are all the rage atm - Ross from Freinds, DJ Fuckshimself, & of course Shitmat.

One of my current favourites in this vein is Meryl Streek & Bob Vylan:



makes his own soap apparently

Cradle of filth. Shit name

Sex pistols. Shit name

Psysex. Shit name

Dead Kennedys . Good name

Clive from Accounts. Good name

DgoHn. Good name

Roy of the Ravers. Good name

 

[RYKANSLOPE]

Oh and "Shpongle" is fucking horrendous.

Literally anything psytrance with psy- in the title is shit. There are sooo many of them too, especially DJs. I was gonna ask, albeit rhetorically, if these people have any imagination, but this being psytrance and all, the question pretty much answers itself.

I am totally with you on Clive from Accounts and nominated dgoHn in my first reply - awesome monikers.

 

[floatyhippyflower]

Meryl Streek reminds me a bunch of synthwave artists that bastardised celebrity names, such as Com Truise and Buspin Jeiber. I agree they are shit, but must admit it still make me laugh sometimes.

 

[Torsion Jim]

Psysex is particularly awful though

 

[2much2young]

I thought Babara Psystrand was pretty tenuous

 

[Torsion Jim]

2cbeebies is a shit name too. But might be a dj

 

[RYKANSLOPE]

Simple Minds, I CAN TELL.

And tbh:
Wham!, stupid.
A-ah , stupid.
Yazoo, stupid.
Duran Duran, stupid.
Frankie Goes to Hollywood, perfect.

 

[2much2young]

Oasis - you weren’t

Britpop was a bottomless pit of banality. Shed Seven ffs.

 

[2much2young]

The Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band - now there‘s a name

 

[RYKANSLOPE]

To my chagrin, Dead Can Dance understood the assignment.

 

[floatyhippyflower]

Britpop was a bottomless pit of banality. Shed Seven ffs.

Salad.

Duran Duran, stupid.
Frankie Goes to Hollywood, perfect.

Depeche Mode, though....

 

[floatyhippyflower]

In fact, Menswear and Salad pretty much sum up the yawn of most Britpop for me, though Pulp and Blur are both decent band names, and both released some half-decent music as well, so we must allow for the odd exception.

Must admit, that actually made me laff, though if this is a trance act, then surely Baba Psystrand would have been more appropriate?
