Fake Band Names


I was just a guest on the Heroes of Noise Podcast with Dan and Steve (so you should really go listen to Episode 108 and then stay around and listen to all 107 episodes that came before it. Steve brought up the oddball named bands I go to see. And he mentioned The Laptop Junkies in particular. Now, I don't know if The Laptop Junkies actually exist, but, in my humble opinion, that's a hella good name for an indie pop band. 
Which, reminds me...
Every time I see a ridiculous or interesting grouping of words in the news or on social media, I’ll immediately try to figure out if it could be a band name and what genre that band would be. Here are some of my favorites from the last few years.
