Hinder - The only reason I know who they are is because they play the awful "lips like an angel" in my exercise class and everyone is always like "oh, who is that? it's really good".  Meanwhile I want to pull my hair out by the follicles!  I'm here to exercise, not to be tortured.
 
Billy Joel- he drives me nuts.
 
Kid Rock - I think.  I've never really heard much from him other than that "I want to *bleep* you like I'm never going to see you again" - plus, he's a sleeze.
 
And pretty much anything Rick Rubin has been involved in.

Thanks for proving my point by mentioning Freebird.

Yes, Lynard Skynard is an abomination. They have no redeeming value whatsoever.

All my friends get pissed at me for admitting my dislike for Skynyrd. I had the style to begin, but objectively, they didn't do anything overly interesting or unique. And they talked bad about Neil Young, to boot. Those dicks. Angry
 
Yeah, I agree. When I say I'm sick of Free Bird, people ask me how, because as we all know 'IT HAS THE BEST GUITAR SOLO EVAR".
 
Neil Young is awesome too. Canada FTW!

The nice thing about prog is if really can't stand an artist you don't have to listen to one, and if don't listen to radio, no artists will be forced on to you to the point of detesting them.
Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

YES!!!!Dead I have even heard THEM... A song my 12-year-old niece (who of course is mad about them) inflicted that to me a couple of months ago. It seems she's going to see them live in January when they 'play' here in Rome. The singer not only looks like a woman, he sounds like oneDead...

As to the original question, in prog there is little I really can't stand as such. I don't particularly like Dream Theater, but I will occasionally listen to one or two of their albums, and I'm willing to give anything at least a chance. However, I have always loathed all kinds of melodic pop, especially the Italian variety - and that in spite of the stereotype according to which women love 'romantic' music.

Queen,  I am sorry for saying this they are not my cup of tea. They were to bombastic for me. They overplay and oversing everything  they did. There is no balance in their music. The one reason I like Floyd is they are experimental but they have the right balance of progressive and pop rock in there music.

I wish my brother didn't listen to Lamb of God, I can't tolerate them at all.  Their music is excessively heavy (in my view), the vocals sound terrible, and the lyrics are very vulgar.

T said that it has to be a rock band
after reading all the pages of this thread and after a long thought (<1 minLOL) I came to the conclusion:

U2 (even if I have some respect for the Joshua Tree)
I can't stand listening to them... sorry

I can't stand pretty much any rock band formed in the last 20 years: espeically emo bands. Something about rich teenagers complaining about their lives infuriates me.

Working at a place that plays "classic rock" all day can ruin lots of former favorite songs. Familiarity not only breeds contempt, it is contempt.

I went through buying 15 of their albums before it hit me. Now I can't listen to them at all. I just can't. I find myself pulling my hair out everytime I hear mr. anderson torturing the cat on the records. Fragile is still in my top 10 album list, but I just can't listen to it.
I have a similar problem with both Genesis and Yes, the music always sounds good while i'm litening to it, but i just never feel the urge to do so, and whenever i hear of Genesis i get a bitter taste in my mouth. I must have really overplayed them.

Frusciante is a superb guitarist. Check this out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q43hsCIBSnQ
Psychedelic Funk, I tell you.

RHCP is a great band. Too much hype around it, though.
