Personally I don't find Joy Division the least bit interesting & I think that Cream is downright awful. Shit, throw the Yardbirds in there as well and everything Clapton's done sans Derek and the Dominoes.

I cut my teeth on the compilation of their early stuff which was just much more energetic and frayed, maybe you'd dig that? Still I can't imagine having gotten into them roasting in the perpetual sunlight of Texas (you can tell I've never been right?)
Until recently I'd have agreed with you on Cream and pretty much all wanky blues-rock, but I think Blue Cheer were the entry point into some of that sh*t. Power trio, stoned out, no nonsense. Not sure how that leads into Eric Clapton's gurning
There aren't really any bands I categorically hate that 'people' seem to enjoy (by people I'll take that to mean musicbanter and the smattering of 'real-life' folks who's opinion on music is informed enough to be worth a damn)... chances are if they are that adored by so many you can admire them for something, whether it be a knack for writing accessible songs or cornering the market on teenage angst.
I don't enjoy the vast majority of Pink Floyd's discography, I can't get into Porcupine Tree, I've put up a long fight against Tom Waits and most Nick Cave, and I grew up on the 'Head but they mainly just annoy me now. These could all be subject to change if I'm optimistic...
