I`m not a huge fan of garage rock but I think the guitar lines and vocals of Jack White to be pretty amazing and make the albums "White Blood Cells" and "Elephant" to be two of the best albums of the current millenium. Elephant is impressive from its use of both blues and folk influences to stunning effect.

i disagree and in my opinion jack white isn't the innovator people make him out to be, nor is he very original.

Whether he is considered to be an innovator or an original, this is another topic which I`m sure would be debated upon. I think he fits into the category of somebody that genuinely loves the blues and has just interpreted them in his own shape, as so many have done before. For the record, I think he`s pretty original.

There are a lot of bands that suck, although some people here mentioned some of the bands that I really like. Anyway, I'm going to say one thing, but I'm going to repeat it a few times, so you could all see how right I am, and that thing is TOKIO HOTEL. TOKIO HOTEL!!! The worst band in history of music. Whoever likes them should commit suicide without hesitation. And if anyone doubts my claims that there is no worse band on the planet, I'll post two of their videos to prove I'm right.






If you have heard and liked this, go find the highest building and jump off of it. Believe me, it will make things easier.

Can someone please explain to me why Coldplay gets so much hatred? I really enjoy their sound, and I don't see what's to hate...

It's because that their sound has been done in some shape or form years earlier and those bands didn't get the recognition that Coldplay now get.

It's partially sour grapes and partially a bugbear that many music fans have dug similar sounds for years beforehand.

Bands such as these were so damn good but never got decent acclaim:

Going back a few posts I have to say I completely agree with Hip Hop Bunny’s sentiments in regards to artists such as In Flames, Soilwork, Dark Tranquility, Arch Enemy etc.
While these artists receive boatloads of praise, everything I’ve heard by them has just seemed absolutely putrid to me (the same can be said for the metalcore, melodic thrashcore etc. that many of these albums helped spawn).
On the other hand I quite enjoy lots of other artists (Sacramentum, Dawn, Unanimated) who may not have that same Gothenburg sound but have found a way to be melodic without completely bastardizing their death/black metal roots in the name of wishy washy hooks and 'catchiness'.
Grotesque and earlier ATG is killer too.

As for other artists, there are so many unoriginal, rehashed artists and albums coming out these days that the list is too long to even touch on.
