I am hoping that posters understand the delineation between general dislike of bands and bands that fit into your usual listening realm but that you don't like (which is the threads purpose I hope) and don't go on a rant as we have threads for that already.

I usually revert to form regarding music and heavy guitar music is usually my default setting if push comes to shove but I don't really like Led Zeppelin, The Who or Deep Purple.

I will post more in depth why I don't like those bands much but I find all overrated and barely interesting.

Yeah but I feel like these same complaints can be levied against a whole bunch of other classic rock bands that I don't hate.

I know that...that's why my post didn't include any bands.

:o @jackhammer I really want an explanation for those!

Now, I don't hate this band, but this is a band I just don't like. No matter how much I listen to them, I cannot get into them. I simply don't like their music. The Velvet Underground. I have listened, listened, and listened, and the only song I like is "Pale Blue Eyes"...so that's a band that I dislike and everyone loves, which I could remember there was a thread around here like that but I figured i'll post it here.

Now, a band I hate...
The Sex Pistols. I just do not like anything about this band. They influenced most punk bands...yeah yeah...but this band I just despise. Their music hurts my ears, not because it's loud, but because it's rotten. (no pun intended) There is always that band that you just hate, this is mine. Sorry if my reason is lame, I just hate this band.

I have a general disliking for Deep Purple (although there are a couple of songs that are okay) most likely due to my mother's incessant playing of their records when I was growing up. I have a lot of memories that come back when I hear some of their songs, but they just never grew on me. Thankfully she balanced it out by also playing the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, Elton John, and a lot of 90's music like Smashing Pumpkins and Nirvana.

Whaaaaaaat?
I believe it is referencing the 1975 relationship between Steven and Julia Holcomb, the 14 year old groupie he was with for 3 years (he was 27 when they met). Though that is not pedophilia, that would be Hebephilia. Pedophilia is a sexual attraction to pre-pubescent children. The term Pedophile has become used to describe any relation with a partner who is under the age of consent, but only applies to those who are attacted to pre-pubecents.

But anyways. getting off topic.

I will add Led Zeppelin to my list actually. Do not get the appeal to them, and also can't stand how much they ripped off folk artists and wouldnt even give them credit. Tons of info out there on that though, won't get into that one.

One other.. Bob Marley. I do not hate him I guess, but think he is really overrated. The guy in my mind just rewrote the same album over and over and over and over. Much like say AC/DC did in hard rock.

AC/DC is another one I can't be bothered with anymore. Heard one album, you have heard them all. I guess that is somewhat of their success, they are like the old blanket you can always go back to cause you know it is always there for you and will never change.

I hate Muse, cannot stand that whiny drone of a voice!

I would agree on Sex Pistols up the stage but I am not really into punk at all.
