I always thought TV On the Radio was an terrible band name. And I agree with that verb-the-noun thing.

[zeb]

I think I like TV On The Radio as a band name.

[bodysnatcher]

[BurtReynolds]

Band of Skulls
Band of Horses

Goatwhore

[William Bloke]

Paul Kelly's band was once called "The Coloured Girls" but you guys didn't like that very much in the U S of A (and not just because of the superfluous 'u" apparently), so they changed it to "The Messengers". From good to lame, but at least they were pc.

[Will]

We Were Promised Jet Packs.

No, you weren't! If you were, you were misinformed, and its unreasonable to expect them in your lifetime or that you'd fucking know how to operate one without harming yourself.

[Heathen]

bwerst: Kiss the Anus of a Black Cat

[Dscans]

The Shitty Beatles

[stip]

I always liked Soundgarden and Alice in Chains as band names.

[BurtReynolds]

oh yeah, i hate Vampire Weekend.

[Gods' Die]

!!!

This is it...unless you count Prince's unpronounceable phase.

Also any band that is difficult to google with discernible results relating to said band you were googling:

The The, The National, The Band, Television...though to be fair a couple of these probably didn't have the foresight of the power of an internet search browser when they came up with their name.

[LetMeSleep]

oh yeah, i hate Vampire Weekend.

And their name is terrible
