With arms wide open by creed is very personal to me and my family and is an amazing song this website should stop bashimg great music (minus the Beatles) and start promoting it instead of bands that should never have made music and don’t deserve to have anything to do with music and are a disgrace to the industry and the actually great artists of their time instead of these blemishes on the face of music history that don’t deserve to be called musicians. I'm sure they all tip well. Also, you might want to avoid names that manage to suggest, in some way, that your hoobas stink like shit.

The group was founded by guitarist June Millington and her sister, bassist Jean, who had been playing music together since they moved from the Philippines to California in the early 1960s. Why it's ridiculous: If you're going to pick a band name that doesn't mean shit, there's an unspoken rule it should at least sound cool (Soundgarden, etc). The story: More of a cautionary tale than anything else, bandmates Billy Corgan and co. reportedly dashed the name off quickly so they could get on with their lives, not realizing they'd be fielding lame pumpkin-based jokes about it for the rest of their lives.

The story: Because the band members apparently wanted to spend every single interview talking about their name, they came up with the stupidest one they could think of. They are very talented and have written some incredible songs. Why it's ridiculous: Not only do we get an extra "d" for no reason (these guys are the anti-Staind), we also have the privilege of getting an altogether unnecessary word. Flipboard. The problem is that Animal Collective are a special kind of unlistenable; their albums don’t reward active engagement, but they don’t make good background music, either.

Every time I hear bon jovi now I turn it off unless its bad medicine that’s the best bon jovi song out there. Italy's Raw Power, from the demos era, and The Worst are the two that I always return to in this category of pure hardcore (it's no coincidence that the influence of the Stooges is apparent for both bands, but that's another story). Wherever mediocrity meets a massive budget—Suicide Squad soundtrack, Grammy for Best Rock Performance—there they are, howling into a wind tunnel aimed directly at your face. And who in the world has so little understanding of art not to appreciate ‘Hotel California’; oh yeah, the troglodyte writing for this website.
Here are the 25 bands who, regardless of their own musical quality, have the stupidest names on record. “Waiting For A Girl Like You”?

-Elano Pizzicarola, I really wanted to like Merriweather Post Pavilion, even going far out of my way to appreciate the record as it was surely intended: super-stoned, miles from civilization in the northern California woods.
