What are you listening to?

  • Downplayed with BABYMETAL, the album BABYMETAL and the song "BABYMETAL DEATH".
  • "Bad Company", Bad Company, Bad Company.

    • Lyrics: "Bang! Camarooooooo..." (repeats)
  • The Beatles, tenth album by The Beatles, which ever since its release has been called The White Album
  • "Black Sabbath", etc., etc.
  • Averted by Blue Öyster Cult, whose self-titled song was not on their self-titled album, and was actually a retitling of their earlier song "Astronomy".

  • "Iron Savior"
  • Barely averted by King Crimson, with "In the Court of the Crimson King" from In the Court of the Crimson King.

  • "Living in a Box" from the album Living in a Box by the band ... wait for it ... Living in a Box .
  • "Motörhead".
  • Miyavi's 2013 album, Miyavi.
  • For a particularly hellish example, "The Good, The Bad, And The Queen". According to the band's frontman, Damon Albarn, the band was nameless and TGTB&TQ was just the title of the album, but everyone ended up calling the band by the album's name for the sake of sanity.
  • "Wilco (The Song)", Wilco, Wilco (The Album).
  • "Buena Vista Social Club"... rinse and repeat.
 
Part 2:

  • Hey, Hey! The Monkees, The Monkees, (Theme From) The Monkees.
  • Double slightly averted? Slightly double averted? "Killer Queen" from Sheer Heart Attack, as well as "White Queen" and "March Of The Black Queen" from "Queen II".

  • Amesoeurs, from the album Amesoeurs, by the now broken up French shoegaze-black metal band Amesoeurs.
  • Queensrÿche come close with the song Queen of the Reich on their first, self-titled, EP. ("Rÿche" isn't a real word in any language, but is pronounced roughly the same as the German "reich".)

  • White Dynomite, etc. For extra redundancy, the self-titled album makes Book-Ends of the title song, starting with the song itself and ending with a short reprise of it.
  • Before Green Day was Green Day, they were Sweet Children. Somehow it's become a bit debatable when it was recorded and released, but they do have an EP called Sweet Children with a song called Sweet Children. It was released under the name Green Day, but it may have been recorded when they were still called Sweet Children. Even still, on one of their other first few EPs they have a song called "Green Day".
