Sometimes, the title of an album precedes the music that is actually on it. Such is the case with the strange monikers that made this list- some are long, some are dirty, and others just make you say "... huh?". Feel free to add your own by clicking the "add to this wiki" button!
| | Limp Bizkit "Chocolate Star Fish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water": Who names an album after an anal sex joke? |
| | Fiona Apple "When the Pawn Hits the Conflicts He Thinks like a King What He Knows Throws the Blows When He Goes to the Fight and He'll Win the Whole Thing Fore He Enters the Ring There's No Body to Batter When Your Mind Is Your Might So When You Go Solo, You Hold Your Own Hand and Remember That Depth Is the Greatest of Heights and If You Know Where You Stand, Then You'll Know Where to Land and If You Fall It Won't Matter, Cuz You Know That You're Right": A great album, but at more than 90 words, the title is enough to scare anyone away. |
| | The White Stripes "Icky Thump": Gross, yet intriguing. |
| | The Smashing Pumpkins "Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness": How tragically romantic of them. |
| | Elton John "Fantastic Captain and the Brown Dirt Cowboy": An autobiographical album, named after Elton's sometimes alter-ego and collaborator Bernie Taupin, and their inevitable breakup. |
| | Britney Spears "Omg is Like Lindsay Lohan Like Okay Like": It's one of five titles up for consideration for her next album... but even so, it made the list. Is it supposed to be a joke? Because no one gets it. |
| | The Legendary Pink Dots "Your Children Placate You From Premature Graves": Beautiful album. Straaaaange title. |
| | Tom Waits "Swordfishtrombone": Sounds like a painful instrument to play. |
| | Aerosmith "Honkin' On Bobo": Wait... what? |
