I used to think it was The Knife Feels Like Justice by Brian Setzer, but that was a long time ago, and the example you gave is surely one of thousands that has since given it a run for its money as the cancer of hipster doofism has metastasized. To think there may a "backstory" to "explain" it and make it "relevant"... just no.

God that's terrible

How about any Megadeth album?
Or this classic from George Clinton?

Then it follows that ∀ k ∈ K: K ∈ U ⇒ k ∉ D

The title is not actually on the front cover of this one, but it is an album by Marnie Stern and it is called This Is It and I Am It and You Are It and So Is That and He Is It and She Is It and It Is It and That Is That, which is pretty much the reason people now use the word "indie" as an insult.

Public Enemy rule the roost for absolute stinkers:

Muse Sick-N-Hour Mess Age - That must be the worst. I mean, what is that supposed to be?
Revolverlution
New Whirl Odor
How You Sell Soul to a Soulless People Who Sold Their Soul???
Like fast-moving clouds casting shadows against a hillside, the melody-loop shuddered with a sense of the sublime, the awful unknowable majesty of the world.

Well, yes. But puns generally only work if they parody a well-know phrase or twist the meaning of that phrase. Otherwise you just have some words that sound a bit like other words. This is just a badly scanning example of that.

Corrected that for you, so we can read the full horror.

Pete Townshend's All The Best Cowboys Have Chinese Eyes has got to be up there.
