Bands you severely regret having ever liked
a pack of wolves:
I think Blur dated rather badly. And interesting evolution... well, not to me. They changed their sound, sure, but not in particularly innovative or compelling ways. And Albarn's voice is, let's face it, pretty weak.
captainawesome:
I used to know every single Dashboard Confessional song by heart.
I listened to a LOT of Linkin Park as well.
Besides those; MxPx, Creed, and Blink 182.
*sigh*

I'll start this post by saying that I don't really regret liking anything. I wouldn't get rid of my old CDs now, hey maybe I'll even get back into them someday. This is just about what I was into at some time in the past, and am not into now.
One of my friends back when I was much younger and lived in Canada was a really massive Aerosmith fan, so I bought their Big Ones compilation. For the most part I was not enthusiastic about music until I was about thirteen or fourteen, so they were quite frankly almost the only rock band I knew and I listened to that one CD in a fairly dedicated fashion for quite a few years. I'll give them credit for that. The only other rock bands that I exposed myself to until I was fourteen were The Beatles and Green Day - I still enjoy a couple of Beatles albums and Dookie. Anyone among us who still likes Dookie should check out the first two albums, particularly Kerplunk which reminds me of Dookie but with a more solemn attitude and a slightly wider variety of music and musical ideas.
If I could go back in time, I would have gone to meet me at the age of fourteen (when I got into the Quake Soundtrack) and told him to buy whatever Coil and Nurse With Wound was available while he still could instead of sticking with the rock that I grew familiar with when I started listening to other Nine Inch Nails music. Instead I decided to "branch out" into other rock music as well as Nine Inch Nails and as a result I have heard every album from Foo Fighters, Coldplay, and System Of A Down despite never really getting into most of their music. I also feel that if I had got into Coil and Nurse With Wound quickly I wouldn't have gone for Foetus before then, who grew stale very quickly apart from the rather quirky first album.
Another band that I went for in an uninformed way was Godspeed You! Black Emperor. At first I thought that they were beyond criticism but the more instrumental music I heard, the more shallow they sounded to me.

Why do you guys have these regrets? You liked them at one point, you moved on. That's it. Why should you regret that?
