I apologize if this has already been posted, but I've been laughing hysterically at it for an hour, so I had to share. NSFW.

Atoms for Peace was on there??? :'( The highlight of my year was seeing Thom Yorke with Atoms for Peace in Chicago...

Acu-Funk-Ture is a GREAT band name hahaha

Animals as Leaders is also an amazing band. I don't think the name is that bad.

This Town Needs Guns is also a good band name... They're AMAZING musicians but the vocals kinda annoy me to the point where they're unlistenable.

HOLY ****!!! I know the vocalist of Your Mom's Pig Squeal. It's a ****ing awful band name and he is kind of a douche...

Also, they forgot Margot and the Nuclear So-and-So's for the So-and-so and the so-and-so section

Yeah, I cracked up at Acu-Funk-Ture.

Some of the names aren't that ridiculous, I think they're just on there to fill out the "categories." Noah's Ark Was a Spaceship is a local band here in Omaha that's been around a while. I've never bothered to see them, but that's just because I'm lazy.

Some of my favorites:

Sparklep*ssy Barbie (I was disappointed to find out they weren't an all-chick band)
V.A.G. ("Very Angry Girls") - Irish girl band - one of the best band names ever. I'll make a point to see them if I'm ever in Ireland.
Lightning Swords of Death - funny because my friends wanted me to call my current band "The Flaming Swords" (I figured it might give off the wrong, uh, connotation)
The Scattered Remains of a More Glorious Past - somehow it's just ridiculous yet awesome at the same time
Kill You In The Face - sounds just awful but someone pointed out this is a song lyric of some sort
Tiger! Sh*t! Tiger! Tiger! - hilarious. I guess I'd yell the same thing if I were... being attacked by a tiger.

and Arsenal of Blasphemy. Not for the band name so much, but for their hands-down most hilarious "band bio" EVER.

Just realized the link I posted started on page 3. Fixed it to page 1. There are 3 whole pages of hilarity, so make sure to read them all
