No, I can't stand that shitface of Gavin Rossdale and sixteen stone is so irritating...really. They brought death to grunge in my opion.

I also don't get the coldplay bashing, I like their first two allot. Yeah, it isn't rock&roll and your mom probally listens to it but it's fine music.

Speaking of bush, some friends and I analyzed the lyrics to every single one of their songs and uncovered the secret formula to their song writing.


Here is a random selection of actual Bush the Opposite Band lyrics:

i wanna live :: i wanna die you

poor on the rise :: rich on the fall

loaded on wrong :: and further from right

here comes a lie :: we will always be true

going up :: when coming down

summer is winter

love and hate get it wrong

mostly me mostly you

breathe in breathe out

now you're here now you're away

i'm never alone :: i'm alone all the time

i needed us more :: when we wanted us less

well the satellite comes and goes

do you feel the way you hate :: do you hate the way you feel

limbo this and limbo that :: you were this and you were that

i'm with everyone and yet not :: i'm with everyone and yet not :: i'm with everyone and yet not

what you save is what you lose

probably will probably won't

slave turned to master :

splinter left :: focus right


And those are just theh first two albums. I mean.... \what the fuck BUsh!? You didnt think we would figure it out?

Tell the people!

Adam, as much as I enjoy your wit and wisdom here, I'm tempted to jump in the first plane to asp-ville and come and smack your bottom for such idle commentary. Now repeat afer me: the sun is hot, the sky is blue, birds do sing and Bush suck donkeys cocks. Unwashed donkeys' cocks.

Back on topic: Paul Weller in everything he's done since the Jam split up.

EDIT: Yes, I know technically Paul Weller isn't a band when he's in solo mode, but seeing as he 1) has worked with the loathsome Ocean Colour Scene, and 2) founded the vomitorious Style Council, he's my nomination for this thread.

Queen and Deep Purple, when played by friends, got me asking to move on to something else.
And Iron Maiden.

A lot of stuff I don't like, actually.

1. Mainstream emo-pop-wuss-commercial-garbage
2. Blink-182 (most annoying band to listen to)
3. Mainstream hip-hop (what a joke)
4. Generic Butt-Rock (Nickelback, Hinder, etc.)
5. Screamo
6. Death-Metal

nickelback is the worst goddamn band of the past 10 years.

1) U2
2) Millionaires
3) Nickelback
4) Hawthorne Heights/MCR/any other emo garbage
5) Ting Tings

I imagine I've already posted in this thread but anyway:

henry rollins - boring self righteous cunt who appeared on one good album, probably by mistake.

reverend horton heat - a disgrace of unfathomable magnitude

pendulum - despicable.

the ting tings - shit pop

limp bizkit - the worst thing to happen to america since independence

midnight oil - my housemate is an australian

Even the Virgin suicides soundtrack ?

Yes, and MGMT.

most definitely

fuck face
im
mean dick wad
i mean anal shit
i mean cold fuck

inb4 Melly

Yes, and Vampire Weekend.

Yes, and Fleet Foxes.

Yes, and The Do.

Yes, and Cocoon.

Right now for me its the Dirty Projectors. What a terrible, terrible band.

I wouldn't call them terrible, there are some good tunes on the new one. Just very overrated

They are as bad or worse than Fleet Foxes and Vampire Weekend or MGMT. Fuck all that shit.

Pearl Jam
U2
Creed
MGMT

YOu've never seen them live have you? Or you just can't understand the concept of music free of pretense?

sonic youth. i really hate how they continue to rock so much after all these years...

THANK YOU

no, i've never seen them live and no, i just can't understand the concept of music free of pretense.


then cheer up, because they don't

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to demonrail666 again.

This was a particularly amusing response for two reasons: RHH are the most pretentious shite I can think of right now, and Herr Rail has (arguably) the least pretentious ears of anyone on this forum.

glice this is for you: DARLING BUDS SUCK

so does the adult net
brix was great in the fall but she clearly cannot hold her own leading a band

Ha. Fair enough. I did think you'd like them, but ne'er mind, eh? They're a bit too insignificant to get annoyed by though, I'm sure.

I'm sure everyone knows bands I hate by now. But I'll just mention that Pavement are shit here for posterity.

really? really?
yeah they are of absolutely no importance to anything at all.

jicks are my fav band of nowadays, along with deerhoof. hehe

Well, I did immediately after I wrote it, then I re-read what you'd written and realised that I'd not read it properly, but yes, in that particular moment I did. For the record, I don't really pay attention to what you listen to because I tend to like what you write (good) more than what you listen to (mostly shit).

Deerhoof are just shit though really. Not worth hating, just shit.

they are very cool people indeed, i talked to them after a concert here, friendly guys. i'm loved them after their pitchork tv performance (it is still there, quite accessible) and now i'm into their 'friend opporunity'. latest 'offend maggie' also grows on me, though first impressions were that the album sounds a bit dry... but generally their music is mind blowing!

lately i kinda hate chili peppers cause of that story with mr.bungle.

I'm like that with Led Zeppelin. I listen to them from time to time, and always with really good intentions. Convinced that I've somehow missed something on all those previous occasions. But then it always happens, about a minute in to any LZ song, where I'm once again left with that by now all too familiar realisation that, for me at least, they really are quite unlistenable.

I still could never bring myself to call them bad, I just fail to hear anything in what they do that's actually good.

I generally feel that way about them too. It's a combination of Robert Plant's voice and certain solos which not so much stretch for too long (I haven't got a problem with that, why would I listen to so much instrumental music if that was the case?), but are just plain tedious. In saying that, I've bought 'Presence' when was about 16, and it's still the only album of theirs that I can, more or less, listen to from start to finish.

from wikipedia:


Feud with Red Hot Chili Peppers

Singer Mike Patton was known to have had a bad relationship with the Red Hot Chili Peppers' frontman Anthony Kiedis, beginning when Kiedis saw Patton performing with Faith No More and accused him of imitating his style.[2] California was scheduled to be released on June 8, but Warner Bros. Records pushed it back so as not to coincide with the Red Hot Chili Peppers similarly titled album, Californication, which was to be released on the same day. Following the album release date clash, Kiedis had Mr. Bungle removed from a series of summer festivals in Europe; as the headlining act at the festivals, The Red Hot Chili Peppers, had final word on the bands that would appear.[2][28] Patton stated “Our agent was in the process of booking these festivals, and it was becoming apparent that we'd landed some pretty good ones—one in France, another one in Holland, some big-name festivals. Turns out someone's holding a grudge! We were booted off several bills, specifically because Anthony Kiedis did not want us on the bill. He threatened to pull the Chili Peppers if Mr. Bungle was on the bill. Now, rationalize that one! That's so fucking pathetic! I mean, this guy's selling a million records! We are not even a speck of dust on this guy's ass! What's the fucking problem?"[29] Trey Spruance added "We were booked, months in advance, to do eleven festival dates in Europe. Come Summer, we get a call from the three biggest of those festivals, all of them the same day, saying that we can't play, because the headlining band retains the right to hire and fire whomever they wish. We found out it was the Red Hot Chili Peppers, so our manager called their manager to find out what the hell was going on, and their manager was very apologetic, and said, 'We're really sorry, we want you to know this doesn't reflect the management's position, or the band's for that matter, it's Anthony Kiedis who wants this.'"[30]
As a result, Mr. Bungle parodied the Red Hot Chili Peppers in Detroit, Michigan on Halloween of 1999. Patton introduced each Mr. Bungle band member with the name of one of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, before covering the songs "Give It Away", "Around the World", "Under the Bridge" and "Scar Tissue", with Patton deliberately using incorrect lyrics. Mr. Bungle also satirized many of the mannerisms of the band, mocking heroin injections and on-stage antics. Kiedis responded by having them removed from the 2000 Big Day Out festival in Australia and New Zealand,[2][28] stating “I would not have given two fucks if they played with us there, but after I heard about some Halloween show where they mocked us and read another interview where Patton talked shit about us, and I was like, you know what, fuck him and fuck the whole band."[2] The feud continued with Dunn criticizing the Chili Peppers on his personal webpage, specifically their bass player Flea, stating "Flea, in all seriousness, really isn't that good. I mean c'mon Red Hot Chili Peppers were vaguely interesting in the late 80s, but Christ they fucking suck, they suck".[31]

I don't hate those names, I am left feeling like they're a bunch phonies. Plus those voices. Maybe it's because their whole package comes across to me as too stylised in an indie kind of way, sort of passive-aggressive without never being either, which has grave potential of irritating me.

porky knows.

all of those "bands" are terribly pretentious. none of them offer anything genuine.

i still fucking love led zep. they just rock. what more do people expect of a band like that?
