I have nothing against her, I just ignore her (though she IS good looking)

Are there any bands the music from which you just can't stand....
Mine I think is Aerosmith. I don't think they're completely atrocious, actually a couple of songs border on decent... |
I was so totally into Aerosmith in the mid-1970s; had their first four albums. My bubble was burst with them though when I found out that their guitarist (what is his name again?) did not do the lead solo on 'Train Kept A-rollin.' By 1977, I was much more totally into 70s prog bands and sold my Aerosmith vinyls at a garage sale.
My least favorite band is Metallica. They are commercial, glam, wanna-be-d-kind (you would say "d bomb" today) heavy metal band. Every song implicitly says "we are in this just for the money" and I can't stand that in a band...

It's a lot easier for me to list bands I hate then bands that I like...so let it commense...
Reading through the rest of the posts helped give me some ideas, but still...
Cypress Hill
Fall Out Boy/Panic! At The Disco/all other emo pop-punk
Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth,.....ok all thrash/death/black/hair/nu metal
Nickelback, 3 Doors Down, Creed, Pearl Jam, other bands that sound exactly like these
I'd list rappers, but rap is not music
Bubblegum bands of the 50s and 60s
Anything involved with Disco
Luckily I didn't get too specific, the list would be too long

Pop punk and emo bands that have based their entire careers on one Green Day album (Dookie)- I like Green Day, but they are not good enough to warrant two sub-genres worth of copycats. My Chemical Romance, Good Charlotte, etc. are slowly killing music. Why does my generation listen to such drivel?
Limp Bizkit- even nu-metal fans think they suck. Doesn't that tell you something?
Linkin Park- they make Limp Bizkit look like Yes.
U2- shut up and sing Bono. You make absolutely no difference. Live 8 raised no money. None. When you go to Africa the cameras don't focus on the poverty, they focus on you and your pretentious sunglasses. Musically I think they're pretty good however.
Axl Rose- way to kill one of the greatest hard rock bands ever, you egotistical prick. When Chinese Democracy comes out, go to the nearest church and pray, cause the end is near. Nice cornrows, by the way

I cannot speak for Pafnutij, but I'm listenning to Epica, Sirenia, After Forever, Tristania, Elis, Stream of Passion, Dreams of Sanity, Season's End, To Mera, Mercury Rain, Alas, Flowing Tears and (even) Lacuna Coil, and I'm affraid in that company the poor girl doesn't even come close - Amy Lee has a limited range, sloppy phrasing and cannot hold a note.

Compare her to famous singers like Janis Joplin and Joanie Mitchell.
Actually, I love her voice. It works well with what she is trying to accomplish.

I've spent enough time in Austin,TX to know that you have to be brave or stupid to critisize Janis, and I'm neither. But I guess Joni's up for grabs  - nah, she's a great song-writer who knows how to write songs that fit her voice and I love Blue, Miles of Aisles and Mingus.
