If I recall correctly SPERMA were more punk than anything but yeah pretty funny name. I think they had female vocalist even.

@BlackStele, The Knell & Avenger: I decided to delete the posts since we don't really need that kind of stuff here and less in the middle of a thread that doesn't have anything to do with it.

In combination with the music they produced, not to mention the size of the coffin they chose to pose by on the backcover, a rather eerie name I would think! Evokes images indeed and the relative non-seriousness of this illness actually helps. Robert Anthrax, Robert Aids, Robert Plague, Robert Leprocy, Robert BlackDeath now those are silly names. Robert Measles may be silly too - but with a twist.
As for silly names check out Janne Stark's encyclopedias for anglo-saxon pseudonyms. The P.Kramer, S.Tate, M.Norton and P.Ferry given song writing credits on the Lion's Share single are hillarious from (at least) a Swedish point of view...

I have the ultimate nightmare band name for you.
It's a russian band and they play Symphonic Power Metal
And they shall be called...HAMMERFORCE !!
It's only a question of time, when there will be a band named DRAGONFALL, I guess.

Surely they would also sound like Rhapsody clones too right?

Those are brilliant. Not only that, their name's rhyming slang for urination. And they had a Just Plain Silly song title - "Love and Rub".

No idea, I've never heard nor have any incentive to ever listen to these cookie-cutter, all for a buck bands.
After having read Kuntz post, I was just randomly looking for bands with any variation of the words "Hammer", "Dragon", "Fall" and "Force" in the name.
