    Come on, man. I think that one is quite comical. I think another band should form as a tribute to Dinosaur Jr and go on a double bill tour together.

    Or completely accurate. Always took it as in the death metal community they'd be considered The Eagles.

    i think many people would see 'death metal' in the name and would be automatically turned off from giving them a chance. there is zero death metal about them. i know it was a joke, but honestly, if you want people to check you out, having that name is a horrible way to do it.
    new album "Cigarettes" out Spring 2025!

    Mother Love Bone isn't so great.

    Butthole Surfers.
    Right up there with Hoobastank.

    Guns n roses is pretty cheesy, could be a song by Bret Michaels.

    Furley's Prize Roses

    that was the name of a '90's band. They never released anything. I guess if you like the name, you can use it.
    I know I was born and I know that I'll die. The in between is mine.

    .........Or a hell of a way for potential fans to remember the band's name.

    Ha, it's actually the band name my old college buddies and I come up with. We hang out and jam every couple of months or so. We are terrible but the name makes us laugh.

    Tapeworm - Hyped supergroup that never ended up releasing any material. Terrible name though.

    Ha! Liked their song, "High". Brings back memories of listening to Hard Drive with Lou Brutus late nights my senior year in HS.
