    I do have a sense of humour!! But I think chris cornells band names are very deep and thoughtful, soundgarden and audioslave could have several meanings , I can't believe some people believe AC/DC stands for anti Christ devil children! Angus youngs sister actually saw it on the back of a sowing machine!! And yes zodiac mind warp Is pretty cool!

    I don't know if Diarrhea Planet has been mentioned, but(t) they are a band of youngsters playing some catchy party rock tunes. Imagining a whole planet covered in diarrhea is pretty disturbing.

    A friend of mine plays bass in a London-based hardcore/sludge/dirge band called Fuckjar. I always liked that name!
    They played a gig recently with a band called Casual Nun.

    Pearl Jam.

    I mean come on. They inspired the too-common phrase "I love Pearl Jam".

    They must secretly laugh there asses off about their name.

    Honorable mentions:

    The Fuckers
    Solar Bears
    Supersuckers
