    I can't believe how many folks hate Radiohead.. Kind of eye opening

    If I ever hear that John Mayer song that was played every 5 minutes last year again I'll probably throw up. Same with Train. I hate them both so much.

    Besides the obvious nickeleback,creed, my chemical romance crap. (those shouldnt even be mentioned) Im very open minded with music. I like alot of different stuff, I even go to MTV for new music (some of their shows play great indie music). But there is one band that bores me.

    Arcade Fire.

    they are BORING. Ive listened to 2 of their albums and its just boring crap. They dont have any high energy heavy songs, its all just laid back vocals and boring guitars.

    Muse - They SUCK!
    Hallelujah! I can't believe it took until the 4th page for them to get a mention! Within a split second of reading the thread title, the words "FUCKING MUSE!!!" were already on their way out of my mouth. I can't think of another singer in any form of music whose voice I find more irritating than Matt Bellamy. Fuck, it makes me angry just typing this!

    Oh well, best to get it out in the open sooner rather than later I suppose. Let the controversy begin....

    The Beatles - so overrated it's a little scary, time to move on people...anyway I've already said on here about my feelings for them, so no point keep repeating it.

    Coldplay - One of those bands that it seems it is fashionable to like them. Bollocks to that idea...

    Radiohead (Hail To The Thief onwards) - completely lost their way and, in their current format, they are horrendous.

    Foo Fighters - Same, same, same, same, same etc.

    Dead Weather - I just don't get it. Jack White is wasted in this band.

    Bruce Springsteen - Can't see what all the fuss is about.

    Jack Johnson - Sexy, sexy, plexy, hexy, FUCK OFF!! Shite.

    Simply Red. Oh. don't even get me started on those.

    Bob Marley - nope.

    Kiss - They were geniuses. They invented a way of making millions of dollars from making the most dreadful music imaginable.

    The Beach Boys - ???

    Nirvana - Four or five decent tunes does not equal genius. Sorry.

    Sex Pistols - ooh weren't they controversial? Erm, actually, no they were just some mouthy dickheads who couldn't make a decent tune if their lives had depended on it.

    Bob Dylan - As aurally pleasant as your average air raid siren.

    hmm the whole punk scene and boy band stuff from the mid to late 90's like offspring, limp biscuit, 5, nsync and whatever....the shit from the early 2000's like My Chemical Romance, simple plan, good charlotte or as people may sometimes call it the "emo" phase....green day... something weird about a guy that uses as much make-up as some girls...fall out boy, generic undertalented studio band that clearly cant perform live.... 30 seconds to mars... Jared Leto does more talking then singing (which i dont think he does very well) but because he's like johnny depp or something thats ok and people can turn around and say they are the greatest live act in the world???? and muse...i cant be bothered with them but they annoy the crap out of me to....bon jovi as a front man irks the hell out of me aswell....over the top nut case...in my opinion their best "album" is the one that sold the least amount of copies and got hammered by the critics. I am also aware that some of those bands i mentioned have been around and are still around but in my life thats when i noticed them the most.

    I agree with: Sex Pistols, Kiss, Simply Red (but really...no need to include in this thread to begin with), and maybe a couple others.

    But MAN you've got issues. The Beatles? Beach Boys? Dylan? Nirvana? Bob Marley?

    I'm with this guy. Although I'm not a big fan of the direction they took on their latest album. One of the best live acts I've ever seen.

    I'm surprised how many people hate bands that I really love, like the Beatles & Arcade Fire.

    I'm worried I'll see Death Cab here - I think they get considered to be an "emo" band, right? Whatever, they're fucking awesome. :D

    Issues? No I don't have any issues, it's just the bands/artists that I have mentioned do absolutely nothing for me musically. I fail to see how anyone can not accept that there are people, like myself, who can say quite honestly that they do not like bands such as The Beatles. It's all subjective.

    Billy Talent

    I'm sure there's more but I'd rather not give it too much thought... :lol:

    Oh yeah, right - include them with the aforementioned Kings of Leon...

    Edit: In the same category, unfortunately, is Bruce Springsteen. I really tried, on multiple occasions, but just couldn't get into him (no puns needed). I guess he'll get over it, though.

    There's not a problem with naming bands you can't stand. That's the point of the whole thread

    The problem lies in saying the Beatles are overrated. That's simply not true. It's not a matter of like and dislike.

    If you're gonna use the "different stroke for different folks" argument you really can't say thinks like that.

    Who is doing all this so called overrating?


    EDIT: PS Hail To The Thief is the 3rd best Radiohead album behind The Bends and OKC
