Right:

1.

Make a fucking song that doesn't sound identical to the rest.
Stop being so cheesy, it's sickening.
Stop bringing your shit to Glasgow with Clubland. You're making my little cousins like you.

U2 - boring and/or annoying shyte! I'd honestly rather listen to Coldplay, but I won't.
Kid Rock - give me a fuckinging break.
The Killers - there's something about their sound that I've hated since the first time I heard a song. Just sounds like overproduced BS.
Bruce Springsteen - Ugh, can't stand his stuff.
ICP - I don't know if I've ever actually heard a whole song, but their image and fanbase are enough to disqualify them from my ears.
Tiesto - Fuck this egocentric prick and his trance.
Arcade Fire - I was actually given their first CD as a birthday gift once. I guess it was ok at first, but then I started to get really annoyed and pissed every time I heard one of their songs. We had a selection of albums we'd put on shuffle at the office and I noticed I hated it every time one of their songs came on. Whiney fucking bitches.
The Hold Steady - The singer sounds too much like Bruce Springsteen and he won't shut up long enough to notice their music sucks too.
Avenged Sevenfold - What the hell? Wanna be 80s glam? GTFO, and your music sucks too.

Too many others to mention...and I won't even mention all the top-40 pop divas and douche bags (well I did mention Kid Rock, but I have an especially deep hatred for him), American Idol "winners" and all that BS.

The Beatles—An average 60s pop band that gets far more credit than they deserve. They have a handful of good songs but let's face it most of their music is boring. As I type this I can hear the wailing and the gnashing of the teeth coming from their fans, "But Janszoon, have you ever really listened to them?" Yes, mofo, we're talking about the biggest pop rock band of all time, of course I've fucking listened to them. They're impossible to avoid, that's one of several reason I hate them so much.

:eek: I'm shocked! Not gonna argue of course, I'm sure you've given them a fair shot. I'm just shocked considering we have fairly similar taste and are the same age.

Van Halen - I admit I owned For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge back in the day, I guess I liked one of the singles and the album was alright. But to be honest the more "classic" David Lee Roth stuff never worked for me either. I just find it annoying for the most part. I liked Roth's solo album Skyscraper better than the Van Halen stuff. "Just Like Paradise" was fun. :D

Here on MB we like to complain about Tool's fans, but in real-life America DMB fans are easily the most annoying...

Roemilca 02-01-2010 01:23 PM

Blessthefall- Don't know why I ever liked these guys, every song sounds EXACTLY THE SAME. Fuck you blessthefall, fuck you.

Avenged Sevenfold- Annoying. Them and Escape The Fate are trying to re-do 80's glam, but seriously? Can't stand them.

Beyonce- She's got an amazing voice, but her songs have no structure what-so-ever. It's not just that, they're just boring.

Glitch Village- Thanks for making a record label solely based on noise and shit. Thanks a LOT.

Reel Big Fish- Ruining ska.

I don't know what *** means, and I would agree about DMB but I actually like their album Under the Table and Dreaming. The only reason I even heard it was because several of my friends in high school were into them, and happened to play it either in a car or a gathering or something. I bought it because I liked it, and I still like it for nostalgic reasons. But anything I've heard since then doesn't appeal to me at all. And yeah, most of the fans...facepalm.

Neutral Milk Hotel

It's hard for me to dislike music with a passion(as many of you will joyously find out in this month's themed compilation :D). But Neutral Milk Hotel found a way to bypass my tolerance and get on my every last nerve. Monotonous, grating, pretentious, annoying, and dull, ITAOTS tops my worst album of all time list.
I don't care if "IIIIIIIIIIII LOOOOOOOOOOVE YOOOU JEISUS CARIIIIIST" is supposed to be "ironic" or "symbolic", it's just plain irritating to me.
Their fans are tossers too:
Quote:

You just lack the perceptive qualities to appreciate the music. In my opinion they are one of the best bands of all time. I certainly think Jeff Magnum creates the best lyrics in the style of free floating mind conciseness more than anyone. His voice although technically imperfect provides more weight and substance than any thoroughbred school instructed vocalist I've ever heard.

Alfred 02-01-2010 04:02 PM

I like that album because I think it has nice melodies and interesting lyrics. I don't think it's necessarily "brilliant", just really well put together.

clutnuckle 02-01-2010 04:29 PM

I don't understand how somebody could go to such lengths on NMH. As it's been said, nothing about their music is inherently bad. Very simple, seldom incredible, but often kind. No songs on 'In the Aeroplane' sound alike either, unless you consider two acoustic songs to create monotony.

As stereotypical as it may be, I have to leave the room when Nickelback comes on the station, as their music legitimately causes me physical pain.

LMAO! Wow that's some hilarious stuff. :D I'm a fan of NMH (though I much prefer their first album over ITAOTS), but that's some serious BS there. They are far from being one of the best bands of all time. I mean it's fine for someone to think that, but not for them to say "You just lack the perceptive qualities to appreciate the music." :laughing: And even though I enjoy ITAOTS, it is severely overrated.

He doesn't make trance anymore sillyhead! All of his stuff always had so much house influence. I DO like his song Walking on Clouds though. It brings back lots of memories.. and the melody is great! Aside from that though I agree. Damn him.

Theory of a Deadman, Puddle of Mudd, Seether, Hinder - Around here they're the bands of choice when the Johnny Rebel CD is skipping. Not to mention the fact they all seem to make their music as predictable and forgettable as possible.

Dimmu Borgir - Grr I'm evil. Such a disgrace to Black Metal. "There's this dude that works as a priest's assistant, and after a while he just discovers that he has nothing to do with Christianity" (concept for In Sorte Diaboli). That's so antichristian dark evil godkilling satan 666 kvlt my parents are gonna die.

Evanescence and other epic metal bands with girl singers and choirs and symphonies - Simply far too melodramatic to be accessible. Like every song is about the end of the world and you have 1 minute to right the wrongs of all of mankind and everyone is counting on you as time runs out and it's raining fire as angels are flying all over the place and crazy **** like that. What the hell are you gonna do

Yeah, I had a feeling that would come up. :D I knew he was spinning a lot of progressive house too. He just gets too much praise for spinning records, no matter what it is.

Very, very true. I can't believe he's making Electro.. sometimes House.. and collaborating with Hip Hop artists. I wonder if even HE knows what the hell he's doing anymore. It seems like he's trying to do everything he can possibly do to be popular. Although Armin van Buuren is commercial he is putting interesting stuff out on his label like lounge music and "Classical Trancelations" which is a Classical music album that is filled with remakes of classic trance songs. His remixes and productions nowadays aren't my thing though.

Alfred 02-01-2010 07:17 PM

I refuse to like Refused. How they get so much praise for all that whiny, pseudo-political crap they recorded in the 90's is beyond me. The Shape Of Punk To Come is probably the most overrated album I've ever heard: an hour of nothing but pointless bitching and crappy poems, repetitive downtuned guitar riffing and horrible feedback that somehow justifies the "experimental" nature of the album. It's only the shape of punk to come if you consider punk to be the music of those awful "screamo" bands that show up on Warped Tour every year.

Ok I admit the album may be a tad overrated (though it's good) and the title misleading/egotistical, but still, wow.

Hahaa yup! Sure do! I don't think it's all bad though because it could perhaps lead some people from Hip Hop or whatever to Electro and Trance... but probably not.

Their fans are tossers too:

Conversation ca. 1998:

"Ever heard of Neutral Milk Hotel?"
"No."

Same conversation, 2005:

"Ever heard of Neutral Mil--"
"THEY ARE THE GREATEST FUCKING BAND TO EXIST, EVER!"

Engine 02-01-2010 08:10 PM

OK - here's a well-loved artist who I won't like..EVER

Stevie Ray Vaughn (and all electric guitar Blues wankers really). It's not that I don't love Blues - even guitar Blues. But the old (acoustic) Delta Blues guitarists are pretty much enough for me. I realy don't like the sound of electric guitars making Blues music in his style for some reason. It's kind of like if Joe Satriani or Yngwie Malmsteen had soul - their music would still suck. And why is it that these guys look like they're orgasming all over the backs of their guitars when they wank out a really bluesy solo?
