A friend and i were talking music, and it came up that we both simply hate Linkin Park. Theres just no way in hell that thats rock, or anything resembling it.
We both change the radio station when one of their songs comes on.

Anybody else just hate/dislike/avoid/want to kill a certain band? Or is it just me?
Not trying to start something, just curious.
 
If I had to choose just one (from the vast pool of stagnant filth that is the mainstream) hip hop artist, I'd probably say Chingy. He's simply trash.

If had to choose one from rock (just rock in general), I'd go with Good Charlotte. Pop-"punk" at its absolute worst. And that's saying something.
 
As far as rock goes, I'd definately agree that U2 must die. The only thing worse than their songs are the reviewers and public sucking their dick everytime they release something.

Oh wait, plus Bono is an annoying fuck.
 
Evanescence and Avril Lavigne, both are horrible bands. Evanescence especially should die because they won Best New Group when Audioslave should've won easily.
 
I wish we could just eliminate the rap/hip-hop/pop category all together.... along with anyone with a low enough IQ to enjoy it. I hate rap...

As for 'rock' that needs to go...
Blink 182... oh wait... they are gone :twisted:
Linkin Park
everthing limp bizkit has done since their first album
good charlot
well... almost every new band in the past 5 years and EVERY 'rock' band to be played on MTV in the past 2 years.

Dillinger Escape Plan comes to mind. It's not rock, it's a bunch of guys screaming and blaring on the guitars.[/quote]

IQ has nothing to do with musical preference. Rap has inspired many a rock star.

I agree, most new rap these days is stupid, but you can't judge rap till you've listened to the old school rap. I thought the same as you till I started getting into Beastie Boys, Cypress Hill, NWA, Mobb Deep, Wu-Tang, etc.

Was Dillinger ever good?
How old is this band :eek:

Miss Machine is just a terrible album. I can't listen to it. No lyrics, just really loud screaming and hard guitar. Not even good guitar. Just really really loud.
Jimi Hendrix has loud guitars, but you can hear them.
I don't like listening to static.

EDIT: And Rap isn't horrible.
...Wait, I'm thinking of R&B,
Carry on. :eek:

But, there actually might be one or two good rappers now. Uhhh...Jay-Z? Xzibit's album isn't that horrible.
 
besides all the obvious bands that are horrible (like many of the bands mentioned in this thread), i absolutely hate bright eyes. a lot.

I think I mostly despise rap because of the fans. That, and the intentional misspelling of words and the desire to make random words up to be cool.
Fo shizzle mah nizzle? Every time I hear someone talk like that I just want to take a dictionary and smack them upside the skull with it. Also... the way mindless teenagers emulate everything. It was getting to the point where if I heard one more person say "don' be scur'd" I would kill them. I just don't see how people can repeat some of these lyrics and still feel like an inteligent human being.

i was at that show. it was fun.
 
Pop-punk isn't my favorite music genre for sure, but Good Charlotte, Simple Plan, Story of the Year, Yellowcard, etc., etc., etc., ETC., need to wiped off the face of the earth.

I have, I've just noticed that for the most part, the only people that really enjoy rap are either in HS, freshly out of HS, or should be sent back to HS.

Not that I have anything against you, but going by the people I have actually met, rap is for retards that hate enounciating and wearing clothes that fit.

Totally agree, rap now is what I call "club rap" a bunch of idiots just talking about how rich they are, how much bling they got, and all the pussy they get. People buy right into it making them richer, and richer. Rap back in the day though had a message, and it was passionate. Guys like Dre, Cube, old Snoop (he's a huge sell-out now IMO), the Beastie Boys, ect. all made music that they really cared about. It was just dumbed down radio friendly rap for "reble" teens. If was music made by people that were tired of the way things were, and they wanted to make an impact throguh thei music.

I'm not overly fond of country... but I have far more tollerance for it than todays rap.
 
nothin against linkin park or audioslave but all their songs sound the same

every song linkin park has ever put out is about wounds not healing

can't they shaq fu'ing find something else to sing about?

Audioslave is too slow, too boring..the first song i heard from them was cool..

I don't particularly care for U2 either, but beautiful day was a nice song

Blink182 is a cool band, but too bad they're done..
 
Uno! Dos! Trieze! Quatorze!

Seriously, I'm just pissed off at U2 for vertigo: every other band for best new rock song deserved the award more than they did.

I would say Avril Lavigne, but i hate pop and i refuse to believe that she is rock
 
I'd like to see all pop-punk gone, but as that's been said before...

TSOL sux

(and i'd like the time I lost seeing Big Drill Car and the SuperSuckers open for good bands returned)

That is the most narrow-minded thing I've ever read here. You should get out more.
 
It's funny, I think Linkin Park is one of the only good and original new bands to come around since the late 90s. It seems like it's the cool thing to do to hate on them (OMG they're like the backstreet boys), but anything i've heard beyond "they suck" is usually unfounded. They write their own music, and there aren't any "filler" tracks. That's admirable enough in my eyes, especially with the industry as it is today.

I think it would be alot easier to ask "what musicians would you like to keep around", as it's a much shorter list than "who would you like eliminated".

This is coming from 4 years of HS, 3 years of college, 1 year of collegiate housing and various outting with random people.

Am I the only one that read this post? This is what I'm talking about. I'm really getting sick of seeing suburban white kids in Escalades with spinners talking about how "phat deyz beez" They couldn't even drive through the ghetto, let alone grow up in one.

Met. In person. Face to face. "Real life." Also, its only a stereotype if I'm making the assumption that all people act like a certain one when I have only met one. However, I am saying that the people I meet all convey the same attitude/habits/etc. Its not a stereotype if its true.
