Bands that have the same name.
 

There are at least 2 Nirvana , a lot of Big Black , New Order and The New Order , 2 Cherubs plus a band called The Cherub etc...
( this thread could be useful to avoid bad surprises when buying a record )

My Salamander:


The early 70s concept-prog Salamander, whose LP is worth a lot more money than any of ours:

mono?

i think there were 2, 1 being good (japan) & the other ass (eengland)

Dutch post-punk band Mecano:





Spanish synth-pop band Mecano:




I have only heard the Dutch Mecano, who are good (although I haven't listened to them in some time) and someone told me that the Spanish Mecano were awful (although I didn't not get the chance to verify this...)

Not really the same, but one of my friends wanted to buy an Earth album, but ended up getting an album by Skeletal Earth. Not quite the same thing...

Also, lots of bands called Resin, including one I did in highschool...

M.I.A.:





MIA. (Germany):

 

Subhumans
The Mission

"awful" doesn't beginning to describe how stomach-churning, brain-hemmorhage (sp?) causing, ear tumor they fucking are, the worst cutesy, 1 point of iq retarded piece of shit music you can ever hear.

they are pretty much at the top of the worse things i've ever heard in a my life.

believe me, everyone here worships this good for nothing crap, one of the the assholes in the band even mama mia'd their songs (they made a musical).

do yourself a favor and avoid them.


contribution:

stimulators: there's the proto hardcore power pop band and a reggae band or something.

lambsbread: the improv noise rock band and a reggae band.

there's like five bands called om.

infernal: a death metal band and an electro pop band (haven't heard neither)

skid row: the semi-hair metal band and a blues hard rock band from the 70's

thor's hammer: nsbm band and thorr's hammer: the black doom band.

there was also an 80's hardcore band called m.i.a.

there's like 3 million bands called genocide.

smegma: the genius band and a crusty punk band.

Haha... Ok, that was a clear assessment. I am curious by nature but I can't say I'm really eager to inflict myself this even for a few seconds using Youtube or else now. We shall see: do I have enough time to lose to check every awful music there is just to see how awful it really is?

skid row... irish rockers a la thin lizzy and the american poodle wankery of riffdom.....

desecration...... irish death metal band, mates of mine, they are no longer rockin out..... finnish death metal band who invited them on a tour with them...... the tour was called the two desecrations of hell.... the irsh dececreation changed their name to the disgust of the poster printers... true story!

ohh yeah, the stains, both hardcore bands, both opened for flag when henry joined, one from la, one from austin. the austin stains soon changed their name to millions of dead cops.

there's also like a million bands called dissection.

dinosaur and the the dinosaurs.... the former added the jr postfix.

irish band blink..... they forced blink to change to blink 182!

Anyone else remember when Bush had to call themselves Bush X ?

....


Actually... does anyone even remember Bush?

kate or burning?

Wasn't there some California punk band called MIA too?

There's a lot of REMs, and I think there's two bands called the Chameleons (the one from England are called the Chameleons UK in the US), two bands called the Monks

regarding smegma: there's a punk band called "mega smegma", as well, which is close.

there is scrawl, le scrawl, and another band called scrawl.

two bands called switchhitter.

there is x and another band called x (japan).

i actually looked up cherubs on youtube and found that shitty band called cherubs instead of the noise rock band and i made fun of them.

unrelated, but: there's this comic book made by the guy who made buffy and i guess it's coming out soon but the band in is naped sugar shock. ripoff.

A year and a half ago, I was planning on trying out my band skills with a group mainly of people far younger than me who couldn't play called Czar, and I recall there were about 100 other bands and artists called Czar on myspace at the time. So there y'are.
