Florida Georgia line is so bad they don't even get an "unranked" rating.

He listed Berlin. I think he was going for places with strictly geographical names, not those that referenced them. There are a lot more if that were the case.

That's exactly the era I was thinking of when I made the ranking. Those horns can GTFO.

New York Dolls
Trans Siberian Orchestra

Not sure if that's what the OP had in mind, but if the name can only have a geographical place and nothing else, this will be a short thread.

Those rankings are just terrible. Europe alone makes the list ridiculous.

I wouldn't recognize one of their songs for anything, so I wouldn't attempt to rank them, but the concept of naming a band "Sugarland" is as bad as selling bottled water labelled "Deer Park".
