How did I know you'd say something like this?

I like Angelwitch too...- 'Baphomet' is a brilliant track!! Mind you, some of the reviews during the NWOBHM of their first album were pretty damning.

I'd have to nominate all of the dreadful rap/dance bands (rubbish like Faithless) that have polluted the music scene for too long, and the mind-boggingly boring indie bands like Coldplay and Athlete which we are always told are 'amazing', but are frankly, not!

Bon Jovi and all 80's Hair/Glam metal (Crue , Ratt , Wasp , T S and the likes).

All new wave bands not knowing how to play an instrument other than programming those ugly beatbox integrated synths (Human League etc...)

 Sorry about my feelings. I truly HAVE heard Agit-prop. Just the style and the associations I get from their music does it for me. I'm not a rightwinger, but the Finnish Stalinist movement disgusts me as much as their opposite forces.

Christina needs to STFU in a big way.  it's hilarious to see her prancing around in her videos like she's some skank who grew up on the mean streets of Harlem.

Shes from Wexford, PA!!!!!! 

just another rich white suburb of pittsburgh.  she went to North allegheny high school for god's sake, with 2000 other rich white kids!!!  don't act like you have any street cred, honey.  please.

She may be all that, but her voice is fantastic, and her technique is flawless. She even improvises a lot - listen to Car Wash. If you say that her singing sucks you're either an idiot or just ignorant. Remember, I'm talking about her voice/singing and not about her attitude, the songs she sings or the general way of life which she is promoting.

agreed, she has quite a set of pipes.  but what a bitch.

I connect that music with idealism less than you seem to do. I have no sympathies towards communism itself (even less towards right-wing!); I listen the music as only music. The pathos in it serves for the strong emotion in music. But honestly, they were singing generally for equality of people and against  unjustice all over the world. I don't think Stalin was anyone's hero - anyone's who KNEW anything, but what DID they know is another question. --- Anyway, I didn't mean only Agit-Prop, but also pure love songs ('Kalliolle kukkulalle, 'Sinua sinua rakastan' etc). Kaj Chydenius is a wonderful composer: he puts much more in 2-3 minutes than most 'schlager' songs have in 5 minutes. Of course you don't have to agree on a musical sense either.
