These are names of actual bands, past and present. Actively updated. There are currently 1309 band names. The return of the original Canonical List of Weird Band Names site! A few of us at Bright Lights Film Journal, along with our pals White People Lie, started the Canonical List of Weird Band Names back in 1995 as an amusing side project. A year or two later, we handed it over to a fan named Chelle, who lovingly maintained the site for a while before moving on to other things. While Googling down memory lane, we discovered that our beloved list had been mentioned or completely reproduced on hundreds of web sites. This odd success from our long-gone youth has inspired us to take up the site again. Hey, we're too old for the mosh pit now, but we're not too old to laugh. Please send real band names (with a link, if available) to:

An early (1996) review of The Canonical List of Weird Band Names appears in The Amplifier. Many of the first band names to appear on this list came from the pages of Fizz Magazine, the great alternative music zine published in the 1990s (now sadly defunct).   Elsewhere Headbands is an exhaustive listing of band names that contain the word head.
