When I say listen...I don't mean purchase or own. I listen to chart pop, but I don't buy it. Is Beautiful South and stuff like that a genre?, because I do dispise them...So, the genre of music I hate is "bland supposedly credible rock-lite"!

http://www.melodicrock.com Melodic Rock.com covers a naff sort of rock music - mullets with poddle rock big songs choons and naff guitar solos - this music was horrid to hear. These peole still think that its (the worst of rock) 1985-1989 in their crazy world and don't realise everyone else was laughing at them then, never mind 12 years later. Music for that loser in beavis and butthead.
UK Garage - I disliked as well that scatty lite hiccup production and bleating vocals. I live in North London and this music was booming of car stereos last summer - I bloody hated it. Ghastly sounding music, the bleatings of artful dodger and craig david - were enough to ruin anyone's day.
Power Metal - is totally naff and crap to.
RNB and Swing - that slowed down languid mid tempo paced horrid crap with the production that is over baked in the studio that never changes, inane vocals and lyrics with a bleating style again. Thankfully I don't know the names of the artists of this music but can instantly recognise the sound if I have the misfortunate opportunity to hear it, on the radio, in a shop, booming out of a car stereo or on television.
and whatever music genre that Ocean Crapping Scene fit in again a plodding music style.
Sub grunge/ US corporate college rock - you know everyone from the Spin Doctors to Creed to Semisonic to Matchbox 20 and Vertical Horizon. Thankfully in Britain we don't get to much of - but I pity you folks in America - as there are whole radio stations dedicated to this muck across the states.

I quite like husker du, but I always HATE bands who sound like them for some reason. There seemed to be alot of that a couple of years ago.
Generally if steeeeve lamacq is pushing something, it's quite unlikely that I'll like it too much.

It's just that it's so fucking annoying. She has a very punchable face -- maybe it's just because she looks like a more smug and tanned version of Courtney Cox. The only amusing/entertaining thing about her or that wretched song is that a friend of mine thought it was about masturbation...

I'm sure I listed some fonts on album covers I do like in a recent thread, though I can't remember what it was called. Two I didn't mention then: Broadcast's "The Noise Made By People" and the second Tindersticks album.

I can't stand that lite-pop bull**** played on easy listening stations. There's a new station coming out called 'The Breeze', and the ads for that have been playing INCESSANTLY! It's all Corrs and Shania Twain and Michael Bolton and it's horrible horrible horrible AAAGH!

This sums up something for me. I can usually find something worthwile in any genre, but it's the derivative stuff that will drive me away. And some genres get swamped by the derivative stuff. Slick BB King/Robert Cray/SRV blues annoys me to no end; enough that it even spoils listening to my beloved Muddy Waters when he worked in this mode. Those endless string bends and soulful squinted-eye head tilts turn me off. I think the Fat Possum stuff stood out and revived (hipster) interest in contemporary blues because it avoided, or at least buried, this structure.
Likewise, drop-D grunge got painfully cliched very soon after Cobain's body cooled. But it was genuinely fresh five years earlier, and those tracks still sound good. Contemporary commerical country is dire, but a few good bits of wordplay and melody slip through.
However, post-1960 Musical Theatre is uniformly intolerable.

- Banal R'n'B other than the odd Destiny's Child track and that Blackstreet thing. Way too vapid and bleating as described in some of the posts upthread. - The majority of NME-rock that sounds like a local band except with more hype. - Emo, although once in a while a track can stand out (My Chemical Romance are cunts for making me sort of like them). It's more the vocal style I can't stand whereas the music is often quite interesting. - Chart Pop, yeh there are a couple of listenable "gems" but a lot of it is just wrong wrong wrong.
There's defunct styles I didn't like, for instance Nu-Metal, Garage, Diva-House and many other kinds of House.

And even then, there have been a couple of stray rap records that somehow made their way to my collection. But I'm still not a fan, I just happen to like those particular records. And I will likely never get it with classical music.

I don't know that I can completely write off one genre, I mean there are many genres I don't really listen to (like country) although I don't know that I wouldn't like it if I dared to explore it beyond the crap like Garth Brooks. I just haven't.
