Worst metal band name ever

[Zephyrus]

I remember seeing Death on the original headbanger's ball, and yeah...I thought it was a corny name too even at the time. Actually, at the time, I thought Slayer was a dumb name too....right up there with Killer.

Slayer was originally named Dragonslayer, if that makes you feel better.

Imagine if it was Vampire Slayer... I would just think of buffy the vampire slayer everytime while listening to slayer. If Slayer would have kept Dragonslayer they could have influenced power metal!

 

[cookiecutter]

"FUCKING DRAGONSLAYER!!!!!" just doesn't sound right

too power metal like name for them

 

[skeptik]

Considering they started off as a sort of Punk/NWOBHM hybrid, it's not all that shocking.

 

[skeptik]

I was gonna say that but then again it's a little more than that so no.

 

[TheVaine]

Fist - For all those who had the chance to watch an episode of "SuperGroup"..

 

[skeptik]

There were two bands called Fist well before that stupid ass show.

 

[TheVaine]

Now I feel like I took a bullet here.. I apologize for the uninformed information.. (WTF Am I saying..)

.. I still dislike the name though.

 

[Ender Rises]

It's still a horibile name.

 

[Kreator/Destroyer]

not a metal band but they are called Supagroup not to be confused wit the show and also Mastodon is so unoriginal it's like calling your band Mammoth or Rhino

 

[Killbot]

I think Mammoth would be a good metal band name, sounds epic.

 

[SheisMySin]

I thought Savatage was a pretty dumb name the first time I heard it....one of my favorite bands now.

[The Heartbreak Kid]

Savatage are great!

 

[The Heartbreak Kid]

Eh. OK.
I hate the name Damageplan. So cheesy.

yep, band sucked as well, waste of Dime's talent. Legend

 

[CF87]

What else kind of name would you expect from rednecks.

 

[SheisMySin]

Better than NOLA....that was a shitty band name.

I am war, I am pain
I am all you've ever slain
I am tears in your eyes
I am grief, I am lies
I am pure, I am true
I am all over you
I am laugh, I am smile
I am the earth defiled
I am the cosmic storms
I am the tiny worms
I am fear in the night
I am bringer of light"
