A friend of mine had in school an idea for a theatrical metal band called "Count Fenris".

Vulgar Skeleton Couple. From an article about a risque inflatable Halloween decoration.

quietrock. I work at a hardware store and we sell a brand of drywall called this, and it's meant to reduce sound. The actual branding uses CamelCase, but for some reason what drew me to this as a band name is that the listing of the item number used all lower case like that - since all caps is loud, no caps is quiet. They'd either actually make incredibly quiet music, or they'd be the loudest band of all time and have a sarcastic band name.

Another work related one: Toilet Family. I rang someone up for a toilet and the packaging said something silly about the company being "America's number one toilet family" or something like that- it kinda reminded me of a line from Invader Zim - "I have children. And a toilet. And toilet children."

Cannabis Collins. A mix of 1) watching Dark Shadows (which has a character named Barnabas Collins), 2) frequently passing a Marijuana dispensary on my way to work, and 3) reading an article about a trend of band/artist names that are puns on celebrities/other musicians (IRL examples mentioned in the article include Elvis Depressedly, Ringo Deathstarr, and Michael Cera Palin)

edit: Ooh, or a horror punk band called Barnabas Rollins!

The Cola Project would be a good name for an alternative pop band.

Ultra-Kill. I got it from a rather over the top brand name for wasp killer. However, it's apparently also a video game.

King Zex as a King's X tribute band, with the joke being that it'd be pronounced exactly the same way. At very least I want to write a deliberately cheesy sci-fi story or something that uses King Zex as the name of the ruler of an invading alien race (because it just sounds evil alien-y)

Just started watching Spaced, so Guacamole Window (in context this is a character using a Line-of-Sight Alias for a screenplay she's supposed to be writing). Similarly, Tortilla Avalanche, because I have a bunch of bags of tortillas and they fell on me as I opened up the cabinet.

Maybe more an album title, but What Bad Looks Like. I had to watch a safety training video at work and instead of "what not to do", they consistently showed negative examples with the caption What Bad Looks Like. If nothing else, I can imagine "This is what bad looks like" on some sort of Fun T-Shirt design?

Mega Game Mages. Or Mega Mage Games? Anyway "mega", "mage" and "game" are all anagrams of each other.
