Bands you HATE

Creed

U2

This, again? Madonna. Duh.

Matchbox Twenty

For OP:

Is smash mouth still together???

ABBA, because they gave us M in overalls.

"In May 2016, Smash Mouth released their first live album titled Playlist: The Very Best of Smash Mouth through Sony Music. The recordings were harvested from shows in Rapid City, South Dakota and Manila.

2016 saw the band gain a new member in Sam Eigen and the return of Cooke . Eigen is a long-time friend of both Steve Harwell and Paul De Lisle, and has played with Alanis Morissette, Janet Jackson, and John Fogerty. He can also be heard playing guitar on several of Harwell’s solo recordings over the years.

Greg Camp rejoined Smash Mouth in early 2018. An acoustic re-recording of Smash Mouth's first album, Fush Yu Mang, funded through PledgeMusic was released in 2018 for the album's 20th anniversary.

On November 1st, 2018, Smash Mouth released the single "Unity". It features hip-hop artists Kool Keith and Darryl McDaniels of Run-DMC. They then toured Australia in the same year during November to sell out crowds around the country, which consisted of a mix of theater, festival and pub shows. During the Arlie Beach Festival of Music in Queensland, Steve Harwell became ill and had to leave the stage. However, Nicky Bomba, Frankie J Holden, Wilbur Wilde from Melbourne Ska Orchestra and the remainder of Smash Mouth continued the set without him. A statement was made the following day; "[Harwell] was thrilled to be in Airlie Beach with us all tonight and we are grateful he was able to perform two songs. Paramedics have now examined him and while we are pleased to say he is on the road to recovery and would have wanted to continue the performance, we must unfortunately reiterate he is not able to return to the stage" Thankfully, Harwell became better the next day and the Australian tour continued without any further incidents.

In February 2019 Smash Mouth announced that they are working on new music on their Instagram page."

Nickelback

AC/DC

That is more info about smash mouth than I ever wanted to know. God...

The Rolling Stones. Not the music, the band itself.

Y’all must be a little old.

Just like you are r12

Great start for this thread, OP.

Nickelback

Sorry, OP, what R12 said.

I was born in 1994. I have no idea who most of these "bands" are.

Nirvana. They were ok but the slathering accolades around them is not warranted

R15 just makes you look stupid. Not desirable like you think it does! lol

R15 is fine. Circle of life. I find new stuff that I like so accidentally these days, it's a joke.

I now have LHey now, you’re an All Star” in my head. Thank you so very fucking much, OP.

R15, you're gay and 23, and you can't find ANYTHING better to do than hang out on DL?

R20 for the win, lol.

If it was Grunge, I hated it.

As for the 21st century, I liked Radiohead and Goldfrapp. I'm not impressed with about 98% of the rest.

Bon Jovi

Motley Crue

Oasis

Metallica

RUSH

What, no Vampire Weekend?

“Six Pence None The Richer” for their name alone.

The Smiths

Train and their frau music.

The Chainsmokers. That fucking 'backseat of your rover' song makes me want to stab kittens.

[quote] they are working on new music on their Instagram page

working on new music on their Instagram page?

Is r15 Sentinelese? How is it possible to be so completely ignorant of popular culture? I'm 30 and I recognize every artist mentioned, even though I don't listen to most of them. r15, you heard that awful "All Star" song practically every day for like a year when you were like six, trust me. You must have repressed the memory.

Limp Bizkit

You hate Oasis, R23? How DARE you?

Maroon 5. John Mayer (not a band but truly awful ). That terrible band that sung the atrocious "Gives you Hell " song (I've forgotten their name already ). Green Day m

I ❤️ Maroon 5!

Are you a frau, r35?

Cheap Trick

For some reason, I HATE their songs.

No I sure as hell am not!

U2 and The Smiths

The Smiths broke up in the 80s. I bet you’re glad.

Linkin Park

Journey

The Eagles

"Fun," the band that has Lena Dunham's ex (Jack Antonoff) as its guitarist and drummer. "We Are Young" is one of the most annoying songs of the past decade.

Coldplay

A three-way tie between Huey Lewis and the News, Hootie and the Blowfish, and Genesis in the 80s, after Peter Gabriel quit the band.

[quote]What, no Vampire Weekend?

I love Vampire Weekend.

[quote]"Fun," the band that has Lena Dunham's ex (Jack Antonoff) as its guitarist and drummer. "We Are Young" is one of the most annoying songs of the past decade.

Love that album. One of the best of the decade.

Vampire Weekend, Arcade Fire. Hate ‘em!

So much shitty music. Where to begin?

Cake!

Any jam band — Phish, Widespread Panic, etc.

And I like Americana music, but for the life of me I don't know what people hear in Wilco.

Damn you OP. Now I have that stupid Walking on the Sun song in my head and I haven't thought of it in years.

FAT guys should never be the frontman to a band. Awful.

Imagine Dragons. Every song sounds like a commercial for a new cell phone.

Imagine Dragons are shitty versions of Foster The People.

Fleetwood Mac. Why are so many people my age (39) and younger into that terrible band?

R55 = obvious troll

[quote]Fleetwood Mac. Why are so many people my age (39) and younger into that terrible band?

Because of the incredible STEVIE NICKS!

(39 looks 23?)

Stevie looks like my grandma in that video.

Your grandma should look that good at any age.

Almost 71-year old Stevie taken a few weeks ago.

Your grandma don't look near that good.

Michelle Branch

My grandma is dead, bitch!

Why does everyone hate Nickelback?

Maroon 5.

The Chainsmokers.

American Authors ("This is gonna be the best day of my l-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-fe")

Not a band but probably just as vile as the ones already listed: Andy fucking Grammer

Nickelback owns this thread. I had to sit through one of their shitty concerts because my partner loves them. It was enough to keep my ears from bleeding.

This is AWESOME!!!!!

^^^^ Worst band EVER.

I used to hate The Calling but I love them now!

Aren't they Jesus Freaks???

R65, I can't believe your partner loves Nickelback.

In 2003, there was a talk show DJ here in Dallas who played both "How You Remind Me" and Nickelback's new single "Someday" at the same time, and then just mixed back and forth between them.

They were the same fucking song. Same buildup, same "solos", same everything.

R66 at least he has nice teeth.

[quote]Why does everyone hate Nickelback?

There's nothing to explain. It's self-evident.

Lifehouse!

More hot Jesus Rockers!

R56 and R57 are triggered.

R55, I will gut you like a carp.

I fucking hate Train

^I admit to liking "Drops of Jupiter" but that's about it.

I like "Drops of Jupiter" too. "Meet Virginia" too.

I'll admit that I like Nickelback's "Rock Star'.

Michael Jackson

I don't like Train, but whenever I see the lead singer in a video, I want to fuck him. "Hey, Soul Sister" is the only song I know I know.

Oh God, r80.

Dave Fucking Matthews Band

Barenaked Ladies. Eck. Third Eye Blind. Oasis.

Hootie AND the Blowfish

Leave Hootie alone!

/sob

Green Day and imitators Blink 182. I hate pop-punk.

I do not know the names of most groups I hate, just as I do not know the names of the perfumes and colognes I find most obnoxious.

Evanescence

Some horrific Canadian bands from the 90s that received airplay / videoplay because of our country's CanCon laws and regulations (that's "Canadian content" for those not in the know, where programmers had to dedicate a certain percentage of their broadcasts to Canadian artists):

Our Lady Peace I Mother Earth The Tea Party 54-40

There are more, but these specific bands used to drive me into a paroxysm of rage whenever I had to hear their shit. Also, The Tragically Hip were tragically, tragically overrated. However, they knew which side their bread was buttered on; their tracks would constantly refer to towns in Ontario (I live on the West Coast, so it was all lost on me), hockey, ice storms, aboriginal people, any sort of Canadiana that would make their audiences sing along and beat their chests with pride.

I don't know why they weren't in the list form in which I typed them so I will number them for clarity. 1. Our Lady Peace 2. I Mother Earth 3. The Tea Party 4. 54-40

Boyz ll Men were always corny as hell

Maroon 5

Sublime. I consistently meet trashy people with Sublime themed tattoos when I go to the downtown bars as well.

Springsteen. So insufferably smug.

The National. Overrated pretentious rock.

Phish, Weezer, Beyonce, any boy or girl band (not of the 1960s), any rap or hiphop post 1992, EDM but not electronica
