Nickelback
Hinder
One of the 2, not even got novelty value.... just geared at emotionally unstable idiots or emotionally stable buff idiots who like to look at tits.
I totally agree
Hinder and Nickleback suck balls
^^ Oh yes
Nickleback, certainement.
Without a doubt
It has to be the awful snow patrol
Snow Patrol should escape,
on the grounds of their first album being pretty good.
I can guarantee you have no idea who Snow Patrol are
beyond their last two albums.
They've been around for 14 years, yet morons lump them in with the Coldplay copycats, or just plain haven't got a clue beyond the songs that get over-played on Radio.
And you know what? Even their last two albums had plenty of merit on them, too.
Boy Kill Boy
Or to be honest probably some sort of pro fascist group. But it'd be a tight one.
Ha
They played in our local indie night last night. They were, as to be expected, boring and completely uneventful. But a surprising amount of people seemed to know the words to their songs...maybe they'd paid them.
i really hate the stereophonics,
but that's perhaps more of a personal hatred. they are just so unbelievably dull.
^
this was my gut reaction - no redeeming features.... make me want to destroy things
Word Gets Around
has some plus point to it.
Zico Chain
I keep somehow seeing them supporting people, the first time I saw them I thought they were actually some kind of ironic joke but no.
me too!
saw them supporting cave in at the zodiac, oxford - they just looked and sounded like nirvana. then i saw them with deftones at the astoria - dyed black hair, all black clothes and spitting into the crowd.
have you seen their myspace? all those fans with zico chain tattooes... mental.
yeah
the same here!
Look Look Dancing Boys
or Cooper Jones
One of the two.
you take that back about look look dancing boys!
they're mates! (although admittedly, mates in a shit band)
they did ashoot around mine once!
http://farm1.static.flickr.com/99/272678888_8e9e34bdd6.jpg
i dont know who these people are
but they are cool.
I'm sure my lot upstaged look look
tool
they just make me feel really unhappy.
I love Tool...
but their not for everybody
HAHA!
listen again.
wrong
Prinzhorn Dance School
seconded
haha
no fucking way!
listen to them
with your ears.
I love Prinzhorn Dance School!
You fool.
Hell Yeah (the band)
They have to be one of the most tasteless bands out their. One of their songs is called alcohallun' ass. COME ON!
but that's funny
HIM
without a doubt
^this
Jet
..
^YES!
I remember an NME interview where the singer proclaimed something to the tune of 'there is no musical merit or redeeming artistic quality in any electronic music', possibly in shorter words, and actually seemed to mean it. fuckwit.
^Awful
HIM do probably will this thread to be fair.
yeah they blow majorly
my girlfriend loves them though. Even though I tell her they're shit constantly.
^THIS x a million.
^ gets my vote
ooooooh yeah
them
Radiohead
No doubt at all.
Angels and Airwaves
or The Kooks.
red hot chilli peppers
</thread>
seconded
thirded
old thread
Those two girls who sung about how they'd "rather jack than Fleetwood Mac"
Yeah, them!
Scouting for Girls
obviously.
The 'rather jack/Fleetwood Mac' girls.
I'll have to agree with that one.
The Reynolds Girls, I think. Pure shite.
^True dat!
led zep
i cant stand them, they are dire
Stupid reply
not really
they are everything thats bad about popular music.. pompus, self important, boring... its more about musical virtuosity than emotion zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
i don't trust you.
Yeah sure
No emotion
Oh god, here we go again with the "it's cool to hate Zeppelin" thing.
"All My Love". Robert Plant on the verge of tears after his son died. Case closed.
^^^^^^^^^^^ wrong on every count
have you heard Since I've Been Loving You?.....enmotion right there.
That was to Aldo!
then again it's all subjective.
suede
there- i said it.
^ Ban Requast
^ Ban Request
(Spelt correctly this time)
C-C-C-C-C-C-C-C
oldplay
Coldplay
get my vote too.
Stone Roses
It's a tie: Every speed/thrash metal band
NO
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=r-lxwlgyhhA
oh my word
that is amazing
So wrong.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Even more wrong
than Aldo was about Led Zep.............you cannot deny the thrash.....................................................ever.
Bad Sandwich?
i had the misfortune to come across this pile of wankers recently
http://www.myspace.com/elliotminor
the most splendid amount of crap i've heard in a long while. highly stylised, big money backed turd marketed to an 'alternative/emo' crowd. at least with mcfly, son of dork, et al, you knew they were being cheese-y pop. but they seem to be approaching their game with the same arch pouts as 30 seconds to mar - the blind belief that their making amazing music, when it's just dull.
^ this, terrible band
I was reading a Kerrang at the dentist and there was an article about them called "Elliot Minor just want to rock, so why won't anyone let them?" It was selling their tragic sob story of not being taken seriously because they're rich. Also trying to force the opinion that girls love them.
I think they may be the ugliest band in the world.
the first time i saw an elliot minor video
I genuinely thought McFly were trying to be emo.
elliot minor
Haha, I was working on a guest list and they were on it but with no passes and were being complete morons...the closest I've ever heard anyone get to saying 'Don't You Know Who I am?' Absolutely hilarious....
i walk past a sticker of theirs
on a telegraph pole near london fields every morning (assume they did this all over hackney) and have often thought they must be crap. will keep neglecting to verify this now and take your word for it.
the black eyed peas
surely
Before Fergie got put there by the record label
they had a couple of okay songs
The Fratellis
there songs actually have the capacity to genuinely ruin my day if heard unsuspectingly.
grammar error!
but who cares
kiss are really good
you've just got to believe!
Gene Simmons
He is a gross guy who just cares about sex and money. In interviews he never talks about the music, its just about how many women he has had sex with. I saw an interview of him in a lingerie store. It's not just him, I saw an interview with the guitarist on a bed with like five girls or something just hanging all over him.
kiss aren't really about the music
just being the biggest show in rock.
they're like a cartoon fantasy of what rock stars could be like if they took their stage personas to the nth degree.
well that and making shit loads of money.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=XlW_pCr1tjU
^ That interview in the lingerie shop
and Paul Stanley on the bed is from 'The Decline of Western Civilisation.' It's a brilliant documentary about the state of rock in the late 80s and it's just possible that they're being ironic. That said, their promo videos around that time are just cringeworthy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DKXSamYcL8o - just play your fucking bass, Gene!
lick it up is the best/worst
the post-apocalyptic world inhabited only by Kiss and girls
kiss
are a joke - they're touring Europe with two unknown chaps dressed up as Peter Criss and Ace Frehley
Definetley U2
They make me wretch...seriously.
YES U2
i was reading this thinking that there was a band that i REALLY hate. Then this reminded me. U2. HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE!!
...
Stained!
Puddle of Mudd!
U2!
Red Hot Chilli Peppers!
Muse!
Nickelback
Limp Biskit
CREED
^ creed
so bad their own fans sued them for being shit live
CREED
-Panic At The Disco
-Angels & Airwaves
-The Eagles
-The Doors
-Hawthorne Heights
yeah the doors are fucking terrible
they area almost like a joke band
The Doors
I love them
no no no
they are like pretend bad boy music
Lies!
They are superb.
Yeh
Creed for sure!!
no
the doors released a couple of quite excellent albums
I like Panic At The Disco
I know I say this alot, but someone needs to defend them round these parts.
I fucking hate Creed
Pearl Jam imitating bastards. If one more person tells me Creed are like PJ...
On PJ, I'm pleased noone has said they're the worst band ever. Then again, noone can hate them that much, surely, even if people don't LIKE them...? Right? RIGHT?
I was tempted.
I really dislike Pearl Jam.
i saw puddle of mudd live once
they were really horrible
I Have to agree on
Puddle of mudd. That guy just wants to be Kurt Cobain. I just saw a video of Puddle of Mudd's where the dip shit is swining from the rafters of a barn, just like Kurt swinging from the chandelier in the Come as you are video.
