Admission: When I was 14, I was in a punk band called Musically Impotent. Not the worst ever, but still...

Anvil Bitch. Not only is it stupid and non-sensical, it's merely a combination of two existing band names.

Hey man I love Jimmie's Chicken Shack!

Goblin Cock is pretty bad.

And any emo/screamo/bopperpunk/nerdcore band you can think of.

Except Goblin Cock is a joke, right? I mean, I've not listened to the album, but seeing the album art and knowing the other stuff that Absolutely Kosher puts out pretty well, I thought the band was a joke entire. A straight line, but a joke nonetheless.

I thought of a random one while walking past a bakery:

Marzipan Vagina

Think of the logo!

Thalidomide and the One-Armed Mongoloids

...either the best band name ever or the worst, kinda' hard to tell.

You'd have to wonder at the scene: "mum, dad, we've got a name for our band." "Really, son, what is it?". "Anal cnut" (Amazon link, but with the last word spelt differently, which might make it NSFW).

What's probably better is that they have an album called "Morbid Florist"

I recall seeing a record on the shelf at a store by a band called "Spooge" however, there's no way I'm going to look that up at work. I think I also found a hits compliation once called "the Best of Schlong"

Interesting, the top result on Google for 'spooge' is a Wikipedia article on, er, white wee-wee. Said article has a rather prominent picture of said substance. I've never heard the word spooge before - how on earth did that happen?
