The Worst Bands Ever

[Ham_authority95]

OT: Steel Panther. Oh dear lord. Death To All But Metal? They aren't metal. They're just shameful.

You do know that Steel Panther is a parody band, right?

Anything that is or has ever been popular. After all, if it's popular, that means it was dumbed down for the masses to like. If almost no one has heard of them, it's because the music is just too deep.


OK, on a serious note, I didn't watch any of the videos, as I like my eardrums. So my vote is Justin Bieber. I want to find that kid and...wait, I can't remove what he doesn't have.

Least favorites:
Rush
Queen
Disturbed
Megadeth
A7X

IMO, these bands "suck," and my viewpoints are valid because "sucking" is purely subjective.

On the other hand, I love Lady Gaga, 3DG, Boston, Cascada, and Armin van Buuren. I can see that modern pop is not very much appreciated around these parts...

You are one sick, strange individual.

Shine on, you crazy diamond.

I'm aware.

They aren't even funny.
If they're trying to be, they're failing.

1.Avenged Sevenfold
2.Coheed and Cambria
3.Linkin Park
4.System of a Down
5.Any other generic bands that suck.

I'd happily slap you, son.
System of a Down? Generic? Please go and listen to their discography then come back and try and tell me, hand on heart, that you think they're generic. You may think they suck, but they're not generic.

Coheed & Cambria aren't really that generic either. I've never heard any band with their kind of style pull off having a vocalist like Claudio Sanchez.

Also, your name is a Motley Crue song, so I'm guessing you like them. They sound a fair bit like bands from that sort of time. I do like them, but they aren't the most unique band in the world either.

 

[Limzz]

This is the only song I've ever heard from this band, but one is enough. If you don't laugh at 0:59 or 1:18, you have no soul, or more inexplicably, you like this band.

I love me some crabcore.

 

[Limzz]

I'm gonna have to go with this artist:

Oh, and I hate AC/DC.

4. Linkin Park-whiney, over-produced

I really don't like when people say this. They are one of the most original bands out there. And saying they are whiny is a tad redundant, seeing howw pretty much every single band ever is whiny. Thats basically what a song is.

That said,

this.

Brokencyde and their partners in crime 3OH!3.

Thank you and good night.

 

[Ldude893]

Queen

What in the world do you have against them?

Your saying System of a Down is generic? You have listened to them right?

Exactly, one of the few original bands out there.

I know this thread has been done a thousand times before but I just found out Nickleback is coming to my city and it made me think of this topic. So I'll start:

5. Nickleback-obviously
4. Linkin Park-whiney, over-produced
3. Limp Bizkit-Durst killed Woodstock..........that's all I need to say!
2. Puddle of Mudd-Nirvana wannabees
1. Brockncyde-One listen & you'll understand!

These are my bands, I would like to see other opinions.

****I orginally had Red @ #2, but after hearing some of their music at the suggestion of another poster, I have changed my opinion.

Your list makes perfect sense, just add My Chemical Romance and Boys like Girls.

 

[Your once and future Fanboy]

Wow, i just read through all the post again, and i think most of us can now officially declare that this topic will forever be Renemaed to: "Dr.Feelgood and the SOAD haters got Owned"

I'm not trying to troll, but..shit! One post lead everyone with some knowledge about music to go on a blitzkrieg.

 

[andeve3]

This may be controversial.

Nirvana - Just my least favourite massive band in the genre ever. Cannot stand any of their albums. I've tried, I really have.

Nirvana is the worst band you can think of? You lucky bastard ;D Nirvana may not be my cup of tea, but there are far worse bands out there.

 

[Fatalistic]

I really don't like The Devil Wears Prada. They sound like the apocalypse, and it sounds completely synthesized.

Justin Bieber goes without saying.

In my not-so-humble opinion, rap sucks. I'm positive it was good at some point, and I know there are some good rappers out there, but I believe they're overshadowed by rappers who have too many teenage fans or rappers who everybody likes, but are "beating a dead horse" with their careers.
I believe it takes talent to be spewing out five sentences in five seconds, having them *sound* like they rhyme and be able to say the words accurately.

 

[Shock and Awe]

So I know this band called Streetlight Manifesto. Even with all of these helpful music-repellent posts above, these guys are my winners for the title prize.

They definitely have an admirable style of uniqueness mixing certain instrument patterns, quick-changing time singatures and slight placement changes of their same chords, never have I before defined a band's style as "noise". I couldn't follow along, it hurts my ears. Make it stop.

Listen for yourself, daring post reader.

Spoiler

Spoiler

But I love Streetlight Manifesto.....

 

[FullMetalTrenchcoat]

Cannot stand Linkin Park, same goes for Fall Out Boy. I honestly did try to like them as well. Though I will say Patrick Stump's solo work looks interesting.

Yeahhhh.... I don't think you're allowed to call bands generic when you've got a Metallica avatar.

L-O-L pwnd.

OT: I guess these guys dont count, but 'Complete' win it for me, PLESE LISTEN TO THEIR GENIOUS: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ukjnrXTTvPY

Metallica is the greatest band in the world, the harbingers of trash metal. They revived the genre and made heavy metal what it is today. Furthermore, they are most certainly not generic. Their songs are all original, so there are definitely not generic.

There. Fixed it for you.

Wow. We should really thank Metallica for reviving the genre. The genre that has given us such incredible gems like Chelsea Grin, Seether, Avenged Sevenfold, Linkin Park and Killswitch Engage.
Yeah, they all revere Metallica.

So if any bad/mediocre band lists another group as one of their influences, or inspirations, or what have you, then that group is just as bad or worse? That's the worst logic I've seen since someone I met five years ago said "If someone calls you gay, then you automatically become gay."

Your argument would've been at least semi-valid if the bands you listed actually sounded similar to Metallica, but even then the only people who would've agreed with you would've been the ones did before you posted anyway.

Why I don't like metallica:

1. They have the word "Metal" in their name. If any other band did that they'd get lynched for being posers.

2. Their songs are incredibly long. They're not incredibly long journeys of sound like Pink Floyd's songs or Rhapsody of Fire's songs, they're just really long. They take a 2 minute song, tack on a guitar solo and repeat the song twice to make a 6 minute song which is just repetition.
*Side note*
I was at a friend's house playing Guitar Hero. It was my friend's turn to play and he chose "Master of Puppets" and started playing. The song was droning on for what seemed like ages so I went to the kitchen to have a soda. I suddenly heard the song again and asked him if he re-started the song to weasel me out of a turn. He said that the song was like that. Naturally, I didn't believe him so when my turn came I did Master of Puppets too. I quickly realized that he was telling the truth; the song really is this long and repetitive.

3. Their songs are repetitive. The same few guitar chords over and over in the song and the drummer having an aneurysm on the drums while the lead singer does his best "Cat getting his scrotum rubbed against a cheese grater" impression.

4. Their fans. I hate their fans. Most of them are annoying neckbearded men in their 20's or 30's that will defend Metallica with their heart and soul as the "OMG TEH GRETEST BAND EVUHR!" and claim that it's "real rock" and that anything after it is just shite. Same goes for its 12-15 year old fans who think they're rebellious and rock hard just because they know a few Metallica songs from Guitar Hero. It's basically the smug and annoying attitude they have that bugs the living crap out of me.

I hope these 4 points explain why I don't like the band much. I don't think you or anyone is going to read the whole thing, but I took my time to explain why I don't like them instead of just going for "I don't like them cus they're gay".

PS:
I've never felt pumped up while listening to Metallica.

Now this changes things. You actually give reasons that make sense, one of which is true, but I don't necessarily find to be a bad thing, one of which is true of every modern band, and two of which I agree are bad things, and one of those two is actually my reason for hating a popular computer/electronics brand.

It seems like you could've said that stuff originally, but at least you did eventually give a valid argument, and for that I salute you (not that you should care about what I think, I'm just some anonymous prick on the internet, right?)
