Bands can earn their rep by playing really good music, putting on an amazing live performance, or they can scam their way into the spotlight with a gimmick.
Now, that’s not to say that all gimmicky bands are bad, or that all bands with offensive names lack talent, but there's something special about a band that manages to offend and delight at the same time.
Diffuser has put together a list of 27 Of The Most Offensive Band Names Ever, a list that includes great bands like the Butthole Surfers, Dead Kennedys and The Jesus Lizard, and a bunch of bands with extremely NSFW names.
But don't worry- the names are all edited, so your mind can remained unsullied, although the same cannot be said if you decide to listen to any of these bands!

Cycle Sluts from Hell
Cherry Poppin' Daddies (think about it)
