Why lump AC/DC with all that crap? I don't think they're like any of the others at all...

agreed...i had an ac/dc phase. their stuff gets a little tired after a while, but they did one thing well and they stuck to it. and guns n' roses isn't that bad, either. i don't listen to them anymore, really, but i did at some point and appetite for destruction still holds up. that album was also very refreshing when you think about the era it came out in...hair metal sound familiar?

if you are wondering...no i haven't listened to chinese democracy and i doubt i ever will.

I've never really liked Guns and Roses before, but they do have some good songs here and there. I agree with AC/DC getting a little tired. Whenever a band finds what it's comfortable with doing it's okay to perfect it but after a while you long for something new and refreshing. But yeah they aren't anything like those other bands there.

I like AC/DC best out of the aforementioned bands, but I think the running theme with all of them is that they stuck to one thing and did it over and over until the world stopped caring. And considering how silly the subject matter of the songs were, I find it funny that bands like Guns 'N' Roses took themselves so seriously (remember their music videos?!). I grew up in a white trash neighborhood where these bands were playing non-stop, and the atmosphere was pretty farcical, like something out of Spinal Tap. Imagine tons of mullet-prone 30-something single males with a beat up trucks and a beer guts listening to music about drugs and hot chicks and perhaps you'll see why I can't take it seriously.

I refuse to like anyone that comes off American Idol. Sorry, but it's true.

Also Taylor Swift, Miley Cryus and Colbie Caillat

Oh and Nickleback and Creed....awful

And the best for last: The Dave Matthews Band and John Mayer I hate them with a passion of 10 thousand burning suns.

No apology required, I feel the same way. I don't care how well you can sing, you're commercial shit I'm not interested in. If I was more into singer/songwriter types, I might feel differently and give these people a chance. Maybe. But I'm more into bands and/or producers, so I'm not interested in a solo vocalist trying to make it. Form a band, do your work.

AC/DC is in my top least favorite bands/artists of all-time. Absolutely horrendous, and the fact that I used to like them haunts me daily. I mean, sure, I used to like Green Day, but looking back on my Green Day phase, I remember their music wasn't always drenched in mediocrity -- AC/DC literally made me waste several months on not growing as a musician/person at all.
