Reading too much into bands names

Just had a laugh to one of the threads on the Terrorizer magazine forum about reading too much into band names, and I wondered if anyone could think of any others? Admittedly I did nick these ones
Cradle Of Filth. Who keeps pornography in a child's cot?
Bestial Mockery - taking the p*ss out of animals? "Haha, you furry wankers, you can't even read a book!"
Darkwoods My Bethrothed - marrying trees
Velvet Revolver- Not much use in a duel
...And Oceans: WHAT and oceans? Just tell us.
Apocryphal Voice: "Did you hear a voice?" "Nah, a lot of people claim they did but in fact there never was a voice at all."
Arise From Thorns: Surely this refers to a sort of shocked whooping noise followed by the sound of someone going s**t as they pluck thorns out of their arse.
Dark Funeral: "Where did you put the f**king coffin?" "I dunno, was it over here?" *CLONK* "Ouch"
The Embraced: Go on, give us a cuddle.
Funeral Mist: "Where did you put the f**king coffin?" Sorry, I've done this.
Naer Mataron: As loved by Kenneth Williams.
astral doors - oooh, doors that go into space!
current 93 - what, the 93rd current you ate?
alkaline trio - calcium carbonate, potassium hydroxide & sodium hydroxide?
Vader - Seriously did they get their name from Darth Vader?
Blind Guardian - Wouldn't be a very good Guardian if they were blind!

Here's two more:
Paradise Lost - I'm sure I left it around here somewhere...
Fields of the Nephilim - it's amazing what you can grow with good soil and the right fertilizer

I can't help myself. I won't allow anyone to be more LOTR anal than me
Black Metal is just Lotr fanboy noise. Varg Vikkerness had a 6 meter map of middle earth of his wall and Burzum means darkness in the black language. Don't get me started on Summoning.

one of my bestest mates used to play in the German death Metal hopefuls (back in the 90s at least
) Morgoth.

Morgoth - blacker than thou
Strapping Young Lad - pish name for a metal band or fit farm hand
Celtic Frost - a cold day in the Jungle*
Voivod - you were trying to spell voided,
yeah?
Nine Inch Nails - Home Improvement
Revolting Cocks - scabby chickens
I think I'll stop now

Of course, that's the whole POINT of 'Summoning'
Its a bit like saying that Goff is just 'Nosferatu: the movie' and Theda Bara fanboy noise...
I can't be having with flogging off Black Metal!
