Sex Bob-Omb, could be a candidate?
Technically a real band because of the movie

This may sound pretty normo, but Spinal Tap is a very funny faux metal band name.
I also liked Mouserat from Parks.

The Shanty Swing Band
One drunken night in a tiki bar, a bunch of my friends cooked up this idea for a band that was entirely too crazy to ever work, especially with our musical and organizational skills.
The idea was for it to be sort of a folk-metal/jazz fusion thing that played sea shanties.
I feel like it’s also worth mentioning that this idea came about well before COVID when sea shanties had a little moment.
I think by the time we all sobered up the next day we realized it wasn’t going to work, but we sure as hell left the bar that night thinking we were onto something.
Part of the concept also involved a “gun player” who would fire off some blanks from a flintlock pistol, sort of like a budget-friendly 1812 overture because something something pirates.
Regardless of the actual feasibility of this project, I still really dig the name.
Pixar’s “Buy n’ Large” and “Allinol” are pretty clever.
OP said band, not brand lol
Real fake band, like Spinal Tap, The Monkees, and Samurai, or an imaginary fake band like when you just hear a combination of words and think “that would make a great band name?” 🤔
If the latter: The Cool Side of the Pillow (which could possibly even be a real band)
The name for my imaginary band is: The Cuban Sandwich Crisis
But I’ve also got a list of names as I come up with them.
Favorite already taken band name: Youth in Asia
Edit: formatting
“Ghostwolves”
“The Ghost Wolves? That sounds dumb.”
“No ‘the’. Just ‘Ghostwolves’.”
Freckle Bitch’s in the video game Saints Row. It is a spoof on Wendy’s. Very inappropriate but that was the theme of the game.
OP said “band” not “brand”
Ahahaha. I very much missed that. :-).
