Fun Stuff > BAND

Musicians/bands you have an irrational hatred of

<< < (51/74) > >>

Dave Matthews - I just don't see the appeal. He's like Bob Dylan without the lyrical genius.

The Smashing Pumpkins - Freshman year college roommate listened to them nonstop.

Almost all hip-hop/rap, especially "gangsta". I see videos with this dude in a mansion with palm trees, wearing a heavy fur coat in the hot tub, surrounded by women in bikinis. Thing is, it's his first album. Where'd he get the money for that? I can't wait for that fucking genre to fall into the sea of obscurity, but I'm afraid that after it does, it'll be back in 20 years as "oldies".

Sweet pop songs: yes.
Boring MOR toss: no.

Yeah, I went out and got 'something to write home about', and that is a great album.  They can rock it out when they want to.

But when I went back to sample some other GUK's stuff, I was dissapointed.  They just kind of gave up on rocking, and took a crash course in suck.

Dance music from the 90s that I used to love...I have turned against you!


to be honest, I  like avril lavigne and Blink 182.
I'd never buy they're albums, but if it's playing, I can appreciate the music, because, for some bizarre reason, Avril's lyrics sound like they really are things she's felt/thought about, despite it all being cheesey teen drivel (but that's her audience anyway? who gives a shit?) And Blink 182 used to be awesome, then they sucked, now they're...interesting, but not good. So, I like the spirit of old Blink182, before they turned into THE BAND of 'skaters'....and while I'm ranting, what is up with skaters? They're all about grafitti and crud now, apparently, and from what I remember, grafitti was all about hiphop...the world is changing.

Kanno:
Damn, I didn't know so many people hated the smashing pumpkins.  They were my favorite band in the world when I was like 14.  I even got to meet Billy Corgan this year (I worked at the studio where he was recording his new disc).  It was rad!

Now I'll wait for some smart ass to reply with "haha".

yipjumpmusic:
I saw Zwan play...and I liked smashing pumpkins and still do but I just have found so much better music, can't even remember the last time I listened to one of their songs *shrugs*  Zwan was a great idea, it was almost a complete reversal in attitude to something positive where this icon of young people's melancholy could maybe have some influence on young people to not get further into dreariness...whether that was their goal or not you can't change the times or the angst of teenagers.  Also over all the quality fell short.  Everything I said is debatable but there's my opinion from off the top of my head.
