    Gorillaz, because a collection of gorillas is called ‘a band of gorillas’.

    Might also be why it’s the worst name.

    Edit: apparently ‘a troop of gorillas’ is used a lot too.

    The name is kinda meh, but Party Cannon wins the logo contest on every poster I’ve seen them on.

        Those completely illegible metal(?) band logos are hilarious, and the Party Cannon logo is doubly hilarious!

    I don’t listen to their music but I’ve always liked the band names:

    … And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of The Dead

    and

    Godspeed You! Black Emperor

    Those names are just so ridiculous, I love them.

      I’ve never listened to a GYBE record, but I did see them live once and it was incredible (and incredibly LOUD). I really should check out their recorded stuff, but I have this sense that it just might not match up to that night 😁

        Yeah they’re absolutely a live experience, you just can’t get the same hit by listening on record
