OK, I admit it. They are all bands that I've formed. But if you're THAT clever, can you work out where all the names came from?

Heh, I'm not clever, I just used to own some real shite albums! :) You'll have to divulge.

Metal Climbing Frame, I like that one... I'm going to pinch most of these for vearious pet projects, I think!

That was on Mark Radcliffe's show about five years ago in an item on crap band names. Coincidence?

>The Donald Tosh

Not much more than a drunken idea while planning a libellous Doctor Who fanzine in a crowded pub. But I liked it.

>Dalek Death Ray

Shouty punky rantings. Best song 'Bob Cryer (Bert's Revenge)'. Record 'albums' every couple of years: 'Please Cryer Don't Bert 'Em', 'Emergency On Planet Bert', 'Bertpop NOW!', 'Big Bert Boutique', and the forthcoming 'Bert Of Prey'...

>Nick Mason's Fictitous Sports

Space Acid Jazz noodlings that came last in 1995 LJMU Battle Of The Bands

>Fun In Space

Early psychedelic pop project. Stole name from Roger taylor album with silly sleeve.

>Victoria Rinck Is A Stupid Ignorant Bitch

A protest band. Protesting against duckface Rinck.

>The Invisible Trumpton Fire Brigade Band

A later incarnation of Fun In Space. Very Kinks-like.

>The Beth Buchanans

Jangly indiepop

>Metal Climbing Frame

Thrash metal spoof, songs included 'Web Of Death', 'Mind Of Fire', 'Satanic Mowing Of The Lawn' etc etc

>Wallid Jumblatt And The Blues Militia

'Hilarious' schoolkid pun on Drouze Militia.

>DJ Berty Bert featuring MC Englebert

Rap parody. Did rap about Blake's 7 being boring.

Nope.

Mark & Lard and Stuart Maconie were playing around with a "Band name generator" on the internet, I think. There a few others mentioned, but this one seemed to stick in people's heads for some reason.
