Now The Darkness are persona non grata it’s up to The Datsuns to take up the zany hair-rock mantle, and party like it’s 1969

It'll take a strong contender to beat that wonderful passage.

Ha, I've got to review that Datsuns album this evening. They'd never know if I... would they...?

There was a group called The Wee Men From Dumbarton. Cut two singles for Pop:Aural in 1981. The bass player was Duncan Bannantyne Out Of Dragons Den.

You're fucking kidding me?

― Sick Mouthy (Nick Southall), Tuesday, 10 October 2006 12:41 (nineteen years ago)

Do I look like I'm kidding?

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Tuesday, 10 October 2006 12:43 (nineteen years ago)

Very rarely.

Actaully that art hospital name sounded horrifyingly familiar so I googled it and found three even worse ones. Say hello to Magnolia Electric Co., Ad Astra Per Aspera and, um, Say Hi To Your Mom. Jesus God.

I don't recall Jesus God.

"North Korean Bike Association" isn't a indie band name, it's a Matthew Friedberger song title.

― Eppy (Eppy), Tuesday, 10 October 2006 13:48 (nineteen years ago)

But The Flim-Flam Band is totally plausible.

― Eppy (Eppy), Tuesday, 10 October 2006 13:51 (nineteen years ago)

The list needs more animals. It's gotta be like the band names were made up by kids naming a team for kickball. Newts are a good start though.
