Strangest/weirdest/ best song titles

Captain Beefheart & The Magic Band- Neon Meate Dream Of A Octafish

Sah: -I Lost My Leg In The War And All I Got Was This Stupid Muppet Foot
-Ball Gladder
-A Shiny Piece Of Skin Dick
-Inside You There's A Part Of Me Scared Shitless
 
don caballero (don't like the music but) -> details on how to get ICEMAN on your license plate / let's face it pal, you didn't need that eye surgery / fire back about your new baby's sex /
you drink a lot of coffee for a teenager / ...

no time to search, but there's a lot of stuff like this on contellation records

ex : title album for the first "a silver mount zion" -> he has left us alone but shafts of light sometimes grace the corners of our rooms


the third eye foundation -> a galaxy of scars / there's a fight at the end of the tunnel / i'm sick and tired of being sick and tired / (and quite a few others)

no time to look for them, but there's some crazy titles out there
 
Infected Mushroom - Sailing in the Sea of Mushroom

Shpongle have some amazing titles, my favourites are:

Botanical Dimensions
Circuits of the Imagination
Linguistic Mystic
Molecular Superstructure
Connoisseur of Hallucinations
 
^any gore/porncore band really.

i personally like...
"ocular penile recepticle" by cephalic carnage...
and the anal blast shirt that simply reads "suck your shit off my dick."

which makes me wonder if grindcore leads to misogyny, or misogyny to grindcore, or if i'm just somehow not getting the joke?

in terms of lengthy unwieldy song titles though, this Bal-Sagoth song has to win (and the song rules too!)

"The Dark Leige of Chaos Is Unleashed at the Ensorcelled Shrine of Azura-Kai (The Splendor of a Thousand Swords Gleaming beneath the Blazon of the Hyperborean Empire, Pt. II)." by Bal-Sagoth

...the "pt. II" is what kills me with that one, I like the fact that there was actually a part I to go off of =D
 
^Ha, yeah I forgot some of the epic Bal-Sagoth titles. Nice :)

Reminds me of a drunken conversation I had with an ex-girlfriend in high school.

"Oh hey pallida, what are you doing?"
"Listening to the most epic band ever...BAL SAGOTH!!! I'm a FUCKING VIKING!"

Hard to believe we broke up 8) lol
 
I really like the title "Searching For Psychoactive Herbs" by Koxbox, as it sounds like such a dreamy, mystical phrase.


have you heard the track? imo it captures that dreamy, mystical feeling perfectly.
"dr. mesmer" from the same album (dragon tales) is great, too...
ok, the whole album is unbelievable.
 
Nothing like acid crazed hippies for weird song titles

Edgar Broughton Band : There's no Vibrations, but Wait (whole fuckin' album that this track comes from is just plain weird, nevermind the titles)

A band with a whole collection of weird titles -

Gong: Fohat Digs Holes in Space
Wet Cheese Delerium
Squeezing Sponges over Policemen's Heads (& numerous others I can't remember at the moment from the album, 'Camembert Electrique'. In fact most of their albums have at least one silly titled track)

also

Captain Beefheart : Basically just about any song or album title from his early stuff. I mean 'Lick my decals off baby' or 'Bat Chain Puller' are among the more rational ones! My BL name comes from a bit of one of the tracks on the album 'Trout Mask Replica'
 
More Bal Sagoth- "And Lo, When the Imperium Marches Against Gul-Kothoth, Then Dark Sorceries Shall Enshroud the Citadel of the Obsidian Crown"
 
Cagney And Lacey - Your Girl Pukes All Over The Dancefloor (Jesse Rose 'Sort Your Missus Out' Remix)
 
Dead Raven Choir (harsh noise, black metal played on acoustic guitars!)- Lots of Booze and Lots of Rambling In a Sea of Steam and Poison Light Bathe in Fiery Answers and Fill the Spinning Sky Guided by the Beauty of Our Weapons

wtf
 
More Bal Sagoth- "And Lo, When the Imperium Marches Against Gul-Kothoth, Then Dark Sorceries Shall Enshroud the Citadel of the Obsidian Crown"

easily the gayest song title i've ever heard. i just get the mental image of a bunch of skinny nerds sitting around in a basement playing dungeons and dragons and coming up with a name like that.

i always liked:

the orb - A huge ever growing pulsating brain that rules from the centre of the ultraworld
