I just realised that a number of bands are named after ejaculating, semen etc (gives new meaning to the phrase 'cock rock').
For example
Lovin' Spoonful
10CC
Pearl Jam
And of course Frankie Goes To Hollywood's 'Relax' was all about delaying the 'little death'.
Do you know any more?
star for enthusiasm, fail for attention to detail
Is that you or Lemmy in your avatar MiE?
10cc is akin to lovin spoonful. same meaning!
yep. it's Lemmy! good call.
But Hinge mentioned that in the first post
Not a band, but a song
Pearl Necklace - ZZ Top
That band with Lauryn Hill. The Sploogies.

woops. pppfffffffffffffffftttttttttttt.
Limp bizkit (sp?)
Not a group, but a song: 'Turning Japanese' (about onanism, I believe)
Lemmy says he sings The Eight of Spades and no-one notices...

Before I read the thread, I thought it was referring to the fact that certain music can produce an orgasm in some people.
I have encountered that phenomenon while listening to the last movement of Tchaikovsky's 4th Symphony, and the March to the Scaffold in Berlioz' Symphanie Fantastique.
Way to go, Phoenix!

Creme Brulee?
(Brit joke - League of Gentlemen?)
not named for the product but the act
the circle jerks
jack off jill
the famous buzzcocks tune "orgasm addict" is all about the deed, as is cindy lauper's tune "she bop"
The "Lovin' Spoonful" was named after a common southern phrase regarding a spoonful of medicine according to frequently stated band publicity in the 60s.
Itchycoo Mark - The Small Facials.
Rosie - by Jackson Browne
Jane's Addiction was named after a local prostitute.
Pearl Jam is not named after ejaculate. And not after some acid laced dessert.
They originally wanted the word "Pearl" in the band name. After seeing Neil Young play, they added the second part, "Jam."
Well if we're broadening it out to onanism...
How about
Pictures of Lily - The Who
All I have to do is dream - The Everly Brothers
She Bop - Cyndi Lauper
And my even weirder list of love with inanimate objects and robots.
Polyester Girl - Regurgitator
Be my girl, Sally - The Police
In Every Dream Home a Heartache - Roxy Music
Sy Borg - Frank Zappa
Spirit of the age - Hawkwind
