OK, I'll start....
Top of my list:
Don't Crush That Dwarf - Hand Me the Pliers (Firesign Theater)
Roll 'Em, Smoke 'Em, Put Another Line Out (Patto) **
...and one that cracks me up, every time:
Hairway to Steven (Butthole Surfers)
** -- another topic buried here sometime: most amazing unknown musicians -- in this case, the late, utterly brilliant Olly Halsall....

Well, Slap, I must say this is not as easy as it seems...
Hairway to Steven (Butthole Surfers)
You beat me to that one! Interesting record. I like the cover, too.
If we're just sticking to album titles, there's only a couple that come to mind:
STUPID ALBUM TITLES:
Limp Bizkit - Chocolate Starfish and Hot Dog Flavored Water
(The band name is pretty silly, too)
Shakira - Laundry Service
(It just sounds like the producer's not interested in the music. Okay, that's nothing new.)
I've just got to mention these...
STUPID BAND NAMES:
Squirrel Nut Zippers (huh?)
Band Ohne Namen (translated: band without a name. Sorry, but such a lack of creativity ought to be punished. Harshly. Very harshly.)
and this...
STUPIDEST SONG TITLE:
"Drop kick me, Jesus, through the goalposts of life"
(Need I say more?)

The best band name is Dumpy's Rusty Nuts. They started their 20th anneverary tour 2 years ago and plan to continue until their 25th.
I like the album title "Jesus Built My Hotrod" (or was that just the song)

You'll love it: it's a way of life.

Back in 1983 - during the MX missile craze - I was in a band called The Eggplant Society. That year we did a Christmas album called "Merry MX." It featured a medley of missile-related Christmas songs, such as "We Wish You a Merry MX," "Silo Night," and a half-French/half-English version of "The Little Drummer Boy:"
"c'est soire ze bombs fell, boom boom-boom, boom boom."
I'd say it qualifies as funny, ugly, stupid and profound.....

In the UK we have had since the early 80's Now That's What I Call Music which is full of inane pop drivel. Ugly or Stupid Catergory? You fig'it out.

No Means No 0+2=1 for most profound. No Means No are a most profound band.

Mudhoney's SuperFuzzBigMuff for the stupidest catergory (in the nicest possible sense). I have always loved this title and album too.

The most appropiate album title has gotta be Lumpy Gravy.

And the funniest (for me) is Ship Arriving Too Late To Save A Drowning Witch.

I don't know if it is funny, ugly or stupid but we had a compilation series of albums advertised on TV (a sure sign of quality) called "The Guitars that Destroyed the World" I don't know who was on it, but you could guess. I'm sure Hendrix was on there. I only hope FZ was.  With Motherly Love Sabrina |
