What's your most hated band?
For me it's The Smiths.
|
U2. Don't get it. Never will.
|
Dream Theater, The Mars Volta, or Opeth. Absolutely no redeeming qualities whatsoever.
Oh, and Guns 'n' Roses, but I could somewhat understand why people like them. |
|
Mars Volta and ... one other band who I've sworn not to mention by name.
Opeth have some good stuff, as do the Smiths. Guns N Roses are one of the best bands of all time. I feel like we've had this thread before. |
We have. ![]() ![]() ![]() |
1)Smashing Pumpkins/Billy Corgan
2)Metallica 3)The Smiths 4)Captain Beefheart 5)Vampire Weekend Even though I don't hate them, I really don't see the big deal about Radiohead at all..... ~Jeremy~ |
i used to hate opeth when i talked to metalheads alot, now i think they're not bad
|
Animal Collective, although their new album is better than the previous.
|
Yeah, Radiohead are just making music that has a sad mood, that's all. I guess I just dislike them so much because of their fans, that want to tell you that they are THE shit. I really loved Greendwoods Solostuff like BodySongs. But Radiohead is nothing special and their music doesn't reach me at all.
|
If we're just basing this on most obnoxious fans it's a toss up between dream theater mars volta and tool

Exactly why I'm afraid to admit Tool is one of my favorite bands |
AC/DC, Lynrd Skyrnd, and their ilk.
I can understand and even sympathize with some of the Mars Volta hate, but The Smiths? I just don't get it. How can someone hate the Smiths? |
What's the point in hating a band? Surely there's much more worthwhile things at which to direct negative emotions.
If someone from a band slept with my girlfriend, or killed one of my friends, then maybe that might influence my feelings towards them, but otherwise, I either like or don't like. And if I don't like, I ignore. |

for me, it's the mars volta i guess or simple plan |
Either Metallica or Red Hot Chilli Peppers, with a slight bigger portion of hate towards Red Hot Chilli Peppers.

*Faints* They're probably one of the few actually brilliant metal bands out there! Anyway for me it's Foo Fighters. Their first couple of albums were pretty cool, but then after that they bacame bland, just stupidly bland. You listen to it on the radio and you think "people really must thing this stuff is really heavy" Why? cos he screams (badly) and has a guitar tone where you can't tell the different notes? YOU'RE JUST SHIT. MTV thrash at its highest. |
Guns 'n' Roses and U2! And also shit Glam Rock bands from the '80s!!!
|
i don't really see the point of hating a band either, however there are many bands whose music, if i'm unlucky enough to hear it, can induce acute feelings of alientation, misanthropy, and/or psychic pain. likewise such feelings can be aroused by people saying they hate an amzing band, like the contemptable person above saying they hate AC/DC.
|
I don't know, I've never really gotten around to hating a band, except for Metallica, which was mainly because of people at school. That was until I bought Master of Puppets.
I hate generic death metal, the kind that most people at school seem to listen to, but I can't name names. |
Muse.
Also Metallica, Tool, Live, The Killers and a bunch of lame British hypes a la Kaiser Chiefs who get way too much praise & airplay over here. |
Oh and Nickelback.

I hate AC/DC, and I'm Aussie. |
Metallica are amazing. 90% of their work is great. Tool is also mostly great. Sure you guys don't just hate their fanbase and not the actual music those great bands create? I'm sorry, I just can't imagine someone sitting down and listening to a whole record from those bands, with unbiased ears, and walking away saying, "Yeah this band is AWFUL. I HATE them." There are tons of shitty, untalented bands making SHIT music. Sure, Metallica and Tool might be shitty to your ears, no matter what I say, but come on... really, the most HATED bands you can THINK of?! Quotes like "get way too much praise & airplay over here" make me really stop and think... I guess there should be a distinction made here. A person's most hated band isn't necassarily the worst music they've ever heard. So, it makes sense now. I answered my own question.
Also, to whoever mentioned Captain Beefheart, I hope you're kidding. Beefheart's a genius. |
Quote:
YES! Whoever it was, you suck. |
Of course it isn't, even the likes of Muse at their worst are superiour to Katy Perry, Limp Bizkit or the local schlager-queens in every way. But mentioning bands or persons that suck by consensus wouldn't make a very interesting topic, woudn't it? So yeah, these kind of threads in the end always come down to the classical 'most overrated bands'-kind of answers.
|
Haha/
LOCAL SCHLAGER-QUEENS would definitely be my real answer every time. |
Why do SY fans seem most enthused with hating bands? I don't understand it. Beefheart? Seriously?
|
What do you expect it's the internet!
|
It's sometimes fun having a token hate figure, so long as it doesn't lead to spending too much time thinking about them.
I do utterly despise Henry Rollins, and get a strange sense of satisfaction in doing so. |
muse are the second or third worst band ever. dream theatre being the worst, queen being the other contender for second place.
with metallica i find kirk hamnest's guitar playing hard to enjoy. |
what's a schlager queen?

Sacrilage! |
both Muse and Dream Theather have a couple of good songs.
I don't hate any band.. generally I just go 'this band has got nothing to offer me' and stop listening to it. When all the media wanks about one band, hailing them as the kings of alternative music, top 1 album of the year, most influential band at the moment, etc, and all that shit that's got nothing to do with music makes people hate a band it's really a shame. u2 for example. I hate that they get so much attention from doing what they do. But I don't hate their music.. it's just fucking boring to me and it's got nothing to offer me. but I actually can't be arsed hating the myth around one little boring band. |

Continental European females singing annoyingly sentimental and overly simplistic pop ballads, usually sung in their own respective languages. For some reason a lot of people actually dig that shit. For instance: |
hating bands can be fun, being apathetic to music you don't like makes alot more sense but whatever
