^ Please tell me you don't dislike the Beatles because they don't "rawk" hard enough......

The Beatles were the right band at the right time simple as that. I grew up with The Beatles (as did many over the age of 25) and they form such an intrinsic part of modern music especially in the U.K but I rarely listen to them anymore and they are certainly not the be all and end of all of what the 60's were about and many many bands in that era made far more experimental music than they did.

However whether you like them or not, they did further modern music more than any other band at that time. Whether that was sheer talent, luck or a combination of both is beyond doubt.

For a band that could arguably be compared to a modern day boy band and make relatively bland and safe music to becoming a band that grew with each album both musically and technically is no mean feat.

I don't like Rolling Stones all that much but I wouldn't take a swipe at their late 60's/early 70's output just because I am not a big fan. They still pushed boundaries and made an effort to extend themselves whatever the results may be and that should always be applauded in my eyes.

The Beatles don't suck.

It is definitley not "horrible music" by any means. If that's what you mean by "suck".

They are simply over played and over worshipped, much like Elvis and Sinatra.

If you're talking about "horrible music", I would go with The White Stripes. I just don't get it.

I know I'm gonna cop it for this, but I can't stand Iron Maiden.
I really don't like the vocals...

I can't stand the vocals to Judas Priest, King Diamond, or Primus, but that by no means makes a band terrible. As musicians, they are amazing at what they do. Have you heard Di'Anno Maiden or Bayley Maiden? Bayley wasn't to great but Di'Anno is one of favorite singers.

This is one of my first posts and I don't want to ruin my reputation. But I agree, they are a disaster to the music scene. I find it pathetic that Mike Portnoy is playing with them now because "The Rev" died. I don't like Dream Theater that much either though, only a few songs from them are cool.

The guy that started this thread saying that The Beatles are sh*t is completely ignorant.

Some bands/artists I hate are:
Supertramp
LL Cool J
Chris Brown
Hinder
Godsmack
Nickelback
Seether
Stone Temple Pilots
Seven Mary Three
Fuel
Creed
Tantric
Default
3 Doors Down
Days Of The New
Lifehouse
Silverchair
The Calling
Staind
Puddle Of Mudd
Blink-182
Justin Bieber
Usher
Michael Jackson (horrible person, made some catchy music, felt up the kid from Home Alone, turned white, the end)
