maybe it's only my fixation

Zeno, Thursday, 3 January 2008 00:43 (sixteen years ago) link

i don't know almost anything from bluski's list, so i guess im saved

Zeno, Thursday, 3 January 2008 00:44 (sixteen years ago) link

Blueski has more or less saved me from having to think of a list! Except I'd throw the Black-Eyed Peas, the Red-Hot Chili Peppers and Paolo Nutini onto the wreckpile too.

What about Biffy Clyro?

Zeno, Thursday, 3 January 2008 00:52 (sixteen years ago) link

i would've put Nutini down but that song he did about buying some new shoes wasn't completely horrendous

blueski, Thursday, 3 January 2008 00:54 (sixteen years ago) link

i mean we've all been there right?

blueski, Thursday, 3 January 2008 00:54 (sixteen years ago) link

The correct answer is Nelly.

Geir Hongro, Thursday, 3 January 2008 01:00 (sixteen years ago) link

Biffy Clyro aren't in the same league of badness as some of this stuff. Besides, the Oceansize singer/guitarist/songwriter/hero absolutely loves them, and I have respect for what he says. I don't like what I've heard, but shit like The Fratellis or Dream Theater actually enrages me.

My own moment of weakness: Mika's "Grace Kelly" is kinda pretty good. Well, the tune at any rate. Anyone? Anyone? *tumbles into blackness*

Just got offed, Thursday, 3 January 2008 01:01 (sixteen years ago) link

i was in a taxi and one of the dudes i was out with made the driver turn the radio on and 'Grace Kelly' and said dude cranked it right up and i was drunk enough to find this hilarious and awesome

Santana, late Eric clapton...

Zeno, Thursday, 3 January 2008 17:29 (sixteen years ago) link

I save most of my hatred for NME "indie" bands, probably because I am/was corny indie fuxor myself. Most other music I dislike I just don't like. Bands like a lot of the ones blueski listed I do actually really HATE. The last one was the Hoosiers after seeing their shitty advert on the telly.

Colonel Poo, Thursday, 3 January 2008 17:33 (sixteen years ago) link

I don't see what is so particularly offensive about those. The Hoosiers are actually brilliant. I'm not so big on Mika and Scissor Sisters, but at least they have proper songs, and good, clean production values. Much better than the R&B and hip-hop crap that way too many kids are into these days.

Geir Hongro, Thursday, 3 January 2008 17:42 (sixteen years ago) link

The Fray are much much worse than anything ever.

Curt1s Stephens, Thursday, 3 January 2008 17:44 (sixteen years ago) link

I actually haven't heard The Fray, but if they are anything like The Hoosiers or The Feeling, I'll probably love them.

Geir Hongro, Thursday, 3 January 2008 17:45 (sixteen years ago) link

But I guess some people find it so provocative when 40 year-olds get into actual new music made by new acts, that they start hating those acts and that genre.

Geir Hongro, Thursday, 3 January 2008 17:46 (sixteen years ago) link

Yes, that's exactly why.

Colonel Poo, Thursday, 3 January 2008 17:56 (sixteen years ago) link

Phoebe from Friends

Ismael Klata, Thursday, 3 January 2008 18:00 (sixteen years ago) link

Razorlight. Die die die. Not the band with that name, just someone kill Borrell.

Geir, Nelly's style is actually a lot more melodic than a lot of other rappers. pls explain.

M@tt He1ges0n, Friday, 4 January 2008 00:18 (sixteen years ago) link

Nelly=zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Bo Jackson Overdrive, Friday, 4 January 2008 00:18 (sixteen years ago) link

Geir, trust me, you wouldn't like the Fray.

Curt1s Stephens, Friday, 4 January 2008 03:21 (sixteen years ago) link

The last one was the Hoosiers after seeing their shitty advert on the telly.

They are the biggest bunch of twats I've ever seen. And their music's fucking irritating.

chap, Friday, 4 January 2008 03:24 (sixteen years ago) link

i REALLY don't like Creed. are they still around?

Surmounter, Friday, 4 January 2008 03:31 (sixteen years ago) link

Nelly's style is actually a lot more melodic than a lot of other rappers. pls explain.

Hardly melodic as in hitting the notes. Plus singing some random notes doesn't count as "melodic". You need precomposed highly melodic songs for that.

Geir Hongro, Friday, 4 January 2008 03:56 (sixteen years ago) link

Trans-Siberian Orchestra

Ugh.

our work is never over, Saturday, 5 January 2008 03:07 (sixteen years ago) link

I think Fountains of Wayne are the only band to actively annoy me in anything like recent memory, though they're on their way down and out anyway so I guess that leaves nobody, as it should be.

xpost: But. . but. . . Ride With Me. . .

Tough call for this one, I've always said Limp Bizkit, but that's probably just talk. Nah, I just thought about it and Limp Bizkit is definitely the one. (What ever happened with that Fred Durst running someone over with his car incident, is he in jail now or something?)

mehlt, Saturday, 5 January 2008 03:27 (sixteen years ago) link

xpost: But. . but. . . Ride With Me. . .

"Dilemma" was more melodic. Although he didn't sing the melodic parts.

Geir Hongro, Saturday, 5 January 2008 03:28 (sixteen years ago) link

Puddle of Mudd is a band I'd like to kill.

Also Sarah McLaughlin, The Offspring, and The Rapture all make me pretty sick for some reason.

Sting/Police
U2
Smiths
Talking Heads/David Byrne

milo z, Saturday, 5 January 2008 04:50 (sixteen years ago) link

There really isn't enough bandwidth in the universe to encapsulate it all.

At the moment, I'd say Akon is pretty much the worst offender. And I'll join the hate-chorus against The Fray. And all that "American Idol" bullshit. And about 99.9999% of contemporary Hip Hop.

Alex in NYC, Saturday, 5 January 2008 19:38 (sixteen years ago) link

one year passes...

Gary Puckett and the Union Gap are definitely eligible for my personal Lifetime Achievement Most Hated Band Ever award. (and I've always hated "Black Is Black" by Los Bravos mostly because I thought it was GP and the UG, guilty by sonic association).

Goddamn do I hate hearing "Young Girl" and it's ALWAYS played on oldies radio and in the supermarket. Jesus Christ I hate that song . . .

I mean, the idea of writing the lyrics "with all the charms of a WO-MAN, you're just a BAY-BEE in disguise" is so fucking creepy and stupid. It's not even pedophilic in some kind of interestingly transgressive TG/Brainbombs/Whitehouse kind of way, nor in a classic sexually frustrated "You've Never Been This Far Before"/American Beauty suburban everydad sort of way either. It's just bad. A baby in disguise? Seriously? Fuck you.

Seriously though has anyone heard of The Script? I can't/can (sadly) believe how shallow and hollow this stuff is. They are one of the Coldplay sound-exactly-likes. Except they sometimes rap...

Evan, Saturday, 5 September 2009 05:27 (fifteen years ago) link

Aren't they opening for U2 or something?

have also always hated "Young Girl" but do not think that the we're-from-the-subculture-so-our-version's-cool version(s) favored by whitehouse/tg/etc are even a tiny smidge less icky
