This is one of those, where its not only the music, or the song, there is something about the singer that makes me want to jump into the PC, and hit him in the face.
Prog is whatevey you want it to be. So dont diss other peoples prog, and they wont diss yours
I can only think of one "rock" band who's more annoying, and that's the Danish megahit in Asia Michael Learns To Rock ( for some reason they're HUUUGE in Asia, yet they don't go well with most Danes, me included) - and yes I could live the rest of my life without having to listen to this one again ugh

^ For the miniscule amount of sanity I have left, I do block it out most of the time. But sometimes these obnoxious little pop-stars (Katy Perry, Taylor Swift, Pink) are so 'in-yer-face' it makes my blood boil. Here's another - Nickelback. They've gone from bad to worse. Now they are aiming at the early-teen crowd......
Nickleback is terrible
NIckelback has changed? Wow.... I always had them picked for playing the same song these last 10 years - only with different words in the chorus.

Did Nickelback ever change?
To these ears it genuinely sounds like they've continued to make the same song for about 10 years.

I kinda hate you for saying this. I work in a retail store and the radio station we have to play brags about not changing its playlist while simultaneously claiming to be the most diverse music selection available.

I recall the day I was doing the grocery shopping when the Muzak system played "The Ballad of John and Yoko"...when the "The way things are going, they're gonna crucify me" section came I couldn't stop laughing

^ Sad, isn't it......
......believe me, I've thought of sabotaging the main-frame where the muzak is generated from within our shop (I'm constantly turning it right down ) but there's no way I can stuff it completely without screwing with the P.A. (which is a rather important tool in the shop for paging staff). Foiled again

- All the s$%t they play on the local 104.5 Reno's rock station, from Three Days Grace, Avenged Sevenfold, Green Day; it's sickening. And I have to listen to all this at work. Even if it's Tool.
Think this should be good for now.
Why may I ask do you have to listen to it?

Try listening to your 11 year old granddaughter's music......I have to go in the basement to avoid hearing Miley Cyrus, Demi Lovato, Katie Perry, ,,,etc.
Mine is a Taylor Swift maniac these days...before that it was "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" and the soundtrack from Grease over and over
