Band That Angers You Most

I live in the Emerald City...we do not consider him the 2nd coming of Christ...that came from outside Seattle, probably NY critics or MTV. Agree you have to dig deep to get the sound and where it came from, some old neighborhood garages, visited by Mudhoney , Melvins  and others...before Nirvana.

Nirvana is good and I agree you have to dig deep. I'm not gonna dive into where the sound came from here, but it came from the lush green forests we have here....but take a listen to Mudhoney.

Oooooh! It makes my brain feel all weird when I try to think of Oasis like that!

Actually, Oasis are pretty pretentious, I knew the Blur versus Oasis war in 90's Britain. What bollocks it was! Back then it was all about "we're better than Blur, our album's gonna be out before Blur's album, we'll sell more copies than they ever will, no stone roses no oasis!" and all that crap.Then when they were finished fighting Blur regarding band superiority the two brothers started on each other!

Yeah, getting out aggression is good. I mean when I'm going to see a band I'm going to see the band, not to go nuts. But if the opportunity comes along to shove someone about that you don't know... well I personally wouldn't turn that down

I must admit though, I do enjoy the music from the back. It's a lot clearer I find. Slipknot? Ah man I couldn't go nuts for them... Not after seeing Decapitated and also Suffocation last year as well Just wouldn't feel right...

Two that really get on my nerves:

The Ramones -- "Hey look everybody, we f**king suck at everything, can't write music, can't play our instruments, and we should be rich a f**king famous!" Poppycock.

Nickelback -- Talk about formulaic.

I find it useful how all you people single out yourselves with your bad tastes

Like I said earlier, I was just havin' a bit of fun when I thought of these. There are some REM tracks I really like e.g. Don't Go back to Rockville ? Everybody Hurts, It's the End of the World as We know It and that Chinese Brothers one ? (forget the names) It's really just that 'wetter than a flapping halibut' singer Stipe who rips my knitting. He must surely be the patron saint of Weird for Weird's Sake.
