Editor’s note: It is possible to find “Best-Of” compilations and later-period albums in which some of these bands’ names include “the”–such as the Bangles’ 2003 comeback album Doll Revolution.
Nevertheless, the above bands (and maybe others you can name) originally chose to forego the definite article officially.
Of course, this category doesn’t include bands like Fleetwood Mac, Pink Floyd or Led Zeppelin–just those who are referred to with the “the” conversationally, but not on their official album art.
Feel free to add to our list in the comments!
