'cliche'_one_word_band_names

These are the bands who have one word for their band name, usually one syllable long, but doesn't have to of course. these names appear to not have much thought put into them, are just named for lack of anything better, and are perhaps somewhat obvious if you really don't think very long.
Bands like:
Nirvana
Hole
Tool
Fuel
Filter
Bush
Live
Apathy
Sponge
Ash
Wax
cure
cult
belly
sublime?
snot
tilt
cell
rancid?
vision?
refused?
pulley, maybe
All
Kiss
This of course does not necessarily reflect on the creative integrity of their band, it just kind of shows a "Baby-boom" of sorts of these kinds of bands.
What more can you think of, you mortals? you watery little didgits?

No, no one is talking shit about any of these bands. it's just that i notice lots of bands have like...random words as their name. but i decided to take nirvana off the list.

a lot of those weren't cliche though, like how often do you hear Aerosmith when its not in reference to the band? something that didn't take a lot of thought. i'm sure Aerosmith didn't take a HUGE amount of thought, but i wouldn't consider it a cliche

I'm sorry S'Bob, but although you titled the blather "cliche" one word band names, the tone and your list suggested that you were really looking for band names that required little or no thought to come up with. I tried to oblige.
