    Then again, it could have something to do with "beat".

    'Chumbawumba' is certainly an odd name for a band; can't deny their musical contribution though.

    My country has produced a few unusual band names too: Salmonella Dub, Hello Sailor, and Stellar* (the asterisk is part of the name) come to mind. Shihad certainly rate a mention, too - named after a mis-hearing of 'Jihad' from the Dune saga. They were temporarily renamed 'Pacifier' in the interests of political correctness, but thankfully they ditched that nonsensical moniker and returned to their original one.

    Butthole Surfers still takes the cake for worst band name ever. Foo Fighters aren't too far behind. Panic! At The Disco makes me want to break something whenever I hear it, especially when it's said by an over-sensitive fan who insists on emphasising Panic because of the exclamation mark.

    I never found Fall Out Boy to be a good name, or band.

    My Guitar Hero 2 band's name is "Pink Bunnies of Doom." I think it's cool, but there are quite a few people that laugh about it.

    Herman's Hermits
    The Pigeon Detectives
    Hootie and the Blowfish
    Bowling For Soup
    As I Lay Dying (and names of that ilk)
    Selfish

    Also seconding a large number of names already in this thread, particularly Limp Bizkit and Chumbawumba.
    "The most important and recognize player in the history of the country."

    Sometimes I wonder what my life would be like if I were as great as Paulo Wanchope.
