Music is something that used to be collectable, now its disposable. I hate anything that sounds like it is sung by a constipated pubescent robot.

resmoplus says: Jul 7, 2011. 7:09 PM
Super Junior, SHINee, Big Bang, 2ne1, SNSD, Wonder Girls, Sistar19, and all those manufactured Korean pop music.
ElvenChild in reply to resmoplusMar 22, 2012. 9:32 AM
I disagree I think that SNSD have actual talent, Super Junior on the other hand... Well I would have to say I agree with you about them...

Any rappers
Any women aho are barely covered on stage.
Any aongs that are about terrible things
Any singers who lip sing at concerts
Any singers who have no talent and everything is special effects
Almost anyone after 1989
monsterlego in reply to nurdee1Jan 27, 2012. 10:42 AM
+infinity. I couldn't agree more, auto tuning ruins music, if you every hear anyone live (mostly Ke$ha & Nicky Minaj) it sounds terrible. how does this happen?
nurdee1 in reply to monsterlegoJan 27, 2012. 10:58 AM
I know isn't it awfull. I haven't heard a ton of newer music but what I have heard is just so blah. It doesn't even sound real. I think the best way to test if a song is good is to listen to a live recording of it. A great song will sound just as good live with one singer some drums and a guitar as it does in a studio recording. In a way I prefer rock songs that have just a couple guitars a lead singer and a drum kit instead of a whole ten member band.
monsterlego in reply to nurdee1Jan 27, 2012. 11:11 AM
the second, third and fourth are the worst aside from that.
monsterlego in reply to nurdee1Jan 27, 2012. 11:08 AM
Absolutely.

Camisado says: Jun 29, 2009. 10:51 AM
Disney bands/artists (Miley Cyrus/Hannah Montana, Jonas Brothers, etc.) and Naked Brothers Band (Nickelodeon) GOOD bands (IMO): (First and foremost, Weird Al Yankovic is GOD.) Metallica (Enter The Sandman FTW) Blink 182 (Fav) Fall Out Boy (Second fav) Panic! At The Disco The Beatles Three Days Grace (Third fav) Led Zeppelin Akon Lee Brotherton Rolling Stones GOOD Foreign Bands: Orange Lounge (Japan) SPLAY (Japan) Pee Wee Gaskins (Indonesian)
lemonie in reply to CamisadoJun 29, 2009. 12:36 PM
What do you mean by "Foreign Bands" - non-English-language? L
Camisado in reply to lemonieJun 29, 2009. 8:32 PM
Yup. Orange Lounge is a Japanese band, SPLAY is a Japanese band, and Pee Wee Gaskins is an Indonesian band, although they're very fluent at English and 80% of their songs are in English.
Camisado in reply to CamisadoJun 29, 2009. 10:58 AM
Oh and here's another awesome band: Nirvana. Seriously. Nirvana FTW!
Rock Soldier says: Jun 27, 2009. 11:54 AM
Where to start, where to start...

Every rapper
Every country band/singer
Every band that only plays songs from other bands
Almost every band from this decade
Miley Cryus(Not Hannah Montanna because she's the same #@!$&# person with a #@!$&# wig! Gah!)
The Jonas Brothers
The naked brothers band
Bands that every other verse in every song is the same
Bands that think they're all that, wait... I already said Miley Cryus and the Jonas Brothers.
Bands that think rock and roll is evil(and people who think the same thing)
Bands that lip sync
Boy bands(goes under the catagory of bands who lip sync)
Hippie bands
Bands that have like, four back up singers and eight back up dancers
Bands that act like they're the coolest band ever, and anyone who doesn't dress like them, or like there music is *anti-social and a fashion reject*
Bands that are aren't who they say they are (Surprisinly, not the Jonas brothers, they really do suck)
There is most likely a lot more that I don't even know about...

Do I win for longest rant comment?
Sunbanks in reply to Rock SoldierJun 29, 2009. 12:42 PM
I agree with most of that, except for the hippie bands :P
skunkbait (author) in reply to Rock SoldierJun 27, 2009. 8:09 PM
I agree with your list 90%. All Pop-country is crap, but you need to check out some of the older (and newer) outlaw country. Go to youtube and check out Hank III ( Crazed Country Rebel), Johnny Cash (Cocaine Blues), Old Crow Medicine Show (Tell it to Me), and David Allen Coe (If that Ain't Country).
Doctor What says: Jan 7, 2009. 7:31 PM
Blink 182 Good Charlotte Ashlee Simpson Nick Lachey
Camisado in reply to Doctor WhatJun 29, 2009. 10:43 AM
Blink 182 is awesome. The rest I agree.
skunkbait (author) in reply to Doctor WhatJan 7, 2009. 7:46 PM
No arguement with those, except I think Blink 182's OK, if you don't take them seriously.
tarzioo says: Mar 13, 2009. 10:52 PM
nickelback is just terrible! I will sit in the car in silence before i hear his terrible terrible voice! uch! it just makes me angry >=|
thematthatter in reply to tarziooMar 14, 2009. 8:31 PM
he sounds like a meth addict that smoked kool menthol cigarettes for 20 years. and he looks like a tool.
tarzioo in reply to thematthatterMar 14, 2009. 10:28 PM
that's because he is a tool
skunkbait (author) in reply to tarziooMar 15, 2009. 12:50 AM
I think you're giving him a little too much credit.
CapnTac in reply to skunkbaitJun 27, 2009. 11:15 AM
I think that everyone bashing NickelBack simply has TERRIBLE taste in music. I agree, it can get annoying. But it is a million times better than rap.
skunkbait (author) in reply to CapnTacJun 27, 2009. 7:54 PM
I essentially agree, but comparing Nickleback to rap is like comparing dried dog crap to wet dog crap.
tarzioo in reply to CapnTacJun 27, 2009. 11:18 AM
agreed
Rock Soldier in reply to tarziooJun 27, 2009. 11:31 AM

NachoMahma in reply to skunkbaitMar 15, 2009. 4:04 AM
. Repetitive after a while, but I like to hear an occasional Nickelback song. I even bought the "Silver Side Up" CD. No accounting for taste, huh?
teaaddict314 says: Jun 27, 2009. 5:36 PM
worst kind of music is the music that barely has any artistic value at all

Well, I figure it's not specifically aimed at anyone, but in my experience people very rarely have a matching music taste. So it's more saying, music tastes are different.
NachoMahma in reply to skunkbaitJan 6, 2009. 12:47 AM

skunkbait (author) in reply to NachoMahmaJan 6, 2009. 7:42 AM
;-( Moldy Oldies? That stuff wasn't even Classic Rock when I was listening to it! BTW- When I was 16, I had a job at McD.s. All we had was an 8-track player in the back, which we cranked up after hours. I bet I listened to Back In Black 1000 (seriously) times .

Nickelback. I win. I can't believe no one mentioned them yet. Three Doors Down is right behind them, though. Mediocre "rock" is truly the worst thing in the world as far as music goes. It honestly makes me a little sick to my stomach.
JuCo in reply to jessyratfinkMar 1, 2009. 11:23 PM
jessy wins... they're jerkoff frauds, too
skunkbait (author) in reply to jessyratfinkJan 6, 2009. 6:50 AM
I agree about Nickelback. They aren't exactly "bad", but I don't see what all the fuss is about.
Rock Soldier in reply to skunkbaitJun 27, 2009. 11:34 AM
I honestly didn't know there was ever a fuss...

Lithium Rain says: Jan 4, 2009. 10:37 AM
Prince and Mariah Carey. Just shoot me now.
JuCo in reply to Lithium RainMar 1, 2009. 11:17 PM
prince is the man! plus, you practically named yourself after one of his songs... (mostly joking... diff'rent strokes and all that)
skunkbait (author) in reply to Lithium RainJan 4, 2009. 7:49 PM
Prince is talented, and Mariah was cute, but yeah- I still don't care for their music.
Goodhart in reply to skunkbaitFeb 2, 2009. 6:16 PM
I did like Prince's song: When Doves Cry
skunkbait (author) in reply to GoodhartFeb 4, 2009. 7:42 AM
A lot of Prince's tunes are rather infectious, but then again so coldsores.
Goodhart in reply to skunkbaitFeb 4, 2009. 10:33 AM
Well, I like songs normally, rather then Artists. I like the song by reason of some connection made at the time I first heard it (first marriage).
skunkbait (author) in reply to GoodhartFeb 4, 2009. 11:51 AM
That makes sense. There are some songs I like because of what I associate them with, even when I dislike the artist overall.
ItsTheHobbs says: Feb 22, 2009. 11:38 AM
Anybody who has ever been mentioned on disney channel, I absolutely hate the rolling stones, any "gangsta" rappers, and all country.
skunkbait (author) in reply to ItsTheHobbsFeb 22, 2009. 8:05 PM
Hate the Stones???? Well, I'll admit they peaked by '70. Agree with the gangsta rap. I suspect you just haven't heard the right country. I liked most of the outlaw stuff, and there has been a lot of underground and alternative country over the years that's awesome, but the stuff that gets the airplay today...... ****gags***, ***gags again****, ****pukes****!!!!
JuCo in reply to skunkbaitMar 1, 2009. 11:15 PM
i concur... most people that listen to the radio have never heard country music before.
lemonie in reply to ItsTheHobbsFeb 22, 2009. 12:58 PM
The Rolling Stones aren't bad, they're just not your taste. Anything coming out of Disney these days is bad - good point!

(Did you ever see the Pinky & the Brain episode - Bubba-Bo-Bob-Brain?)

knoxarama in reply to lemonieJun 11, 2009. 2:13 PM
i have a disney death list: naked brothers band (god, what a horrible name): bomb in the bus jonas brothers (again... 'brothers'): slowly start to snipe them out one by one miley cyrus: mingle with the crowd, and pull out a magnum with a silencer if i missed any disney bands,just assume they'll be in an 'accident' later.
ItsTheHobbs in reply to lemonieFeb 24, 2009. 4:38 PM
Pinky and brain? Is that "before my time"?
knoxarama in reply to ItsTheHobbsJun 11, 2009. 2:13 PM
well, how old are you? we must know your time to asses that.
lemonie in reply to ItsTheHobbsFeb 25, 2009. 10:45 AM
Probably not, but then again...
This episode is somewhat unkind to Country music

L
ItsTheHobbs in reply to lemonieFeb 25, 2009. 12:49 PM
That was pretty funny. Yeah I've never heard of Pinky and Brain before...
lemonie in reply to ItsTheHobbsFeb 25, 2009. 3:57 PM
This was part of a Warner Bros revival. They created a show called "Animaniacs" Pinky and the Brain being about the only one that had potential of surviving. And Warner Bros stores did stock a lot of merchandise for a while. It's a bit sad when you consider that most of the best old-skool cartoons (Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Porky Pig (?) Yosemtie Sam, Foghorn Leghorn, Roadrunner etc.) were Warner, and a lot of the crap ones that no one watches like M Mouse, Goofy etc are propping-up several; theme parks.... L
lemonie says: Feb 22, 2009. 10:54 AM
Some 'actors' from TV soaps can be overrated before they even open their mouths. UK soaps aside there was Craig McLachlan (Sons and Daughters, Neighbours and Home and Away) And Natalie Imbruglia can't sing properly (unless she's had lessons since last I heard her...) L

I don't think Kylie is that much overrated. L
skunkbait (author) in reply to lemonieFeb 23, 2009. 12:36 AM
I dunno. I greatly preferred her as an actress. Although her take on "The Locomotion" was quite infectious. But then again, so are the Measles.
