Minus the Bear
Grizzy Bear
Animal Collective
Band of Horses
Deerhoof
Horse the Band
Sparklehorse
Cat Power
Arctic Monkeys
Modest Mouse
The Mountain Goats
Super Furry Animals

etc...

It's sort of interesting. I guess it's simliar to the trend a few years back where every band was "The" something. The Strokes, The Shins, The White Stripes, The Eels, The Doves, The yada yada yada.
I contend that The Eels and The Doves are leaders of the animal band name trend not followers of the "The" something band name trend.
