Honestly, for me is very difficult to choose among most of these...
But what is SADDER than "(American Idol style)" and more distant from ART ?

Please do not put Slipknot in Death Metal, they are crappy Nu-Metal. Death metal involves bands such as Dimmu Borgir, Emperor etc which most of you will still hate but are not as bad as Slipknot.

Oh I hate all of them so much! LOL And "Slipknot=Death metal"? What a joke. As Hatters said, Slipknot is nu metal, and nu metal is crap! By the way...

The bands you mentioned are actually BLACK METAL, whereas death metal is more like Death, Deicide, Morbid Angel etc.
And the sand-castle virtues are all swept away
in the tidal destruction the moral melee.

What about country (Garth Brooks style)? That would have to rate as low as rap.

No they don't, it's pre programmed drums. And also, concerning Nickelback: http://www.thewebsh*te.net/nickelback.htm

As for the poll, I HATE RAP!!!!!!!! Otherwise, I can Tolerate the others. The closest genre I might have some level of respect for is the Pop thing, because damn, Christina Aguilera has a good voice, although, horribly misused.

I may not care for his music much, but I rather like Garth Brooks.  I thought he pulled off his Chris Gaines persona rather well, and it did show some versatility.


I vote for rap in many forms (subgenres): from Gangsta Rap to Emo Rap (the worst of both worlds Dead) to Booty Music to Crunk.

Now I like booty as much as the next buttaneer (and what guy with a  Spinal Tap avatar wouldn't enjoy "Big Bottom"?) but Booty Music (a subgenre of rap that relies on very heavy bass) is just terrible.  Has anyone heard the Monster Booty rap compilation?  Now be honest. Even the brilliantly titled song off it "Da Butt" fails to deliver (Das Booty rip-off!).

And then there's Crunk (deriving from chronic -- i.e high -- and drunk or from the words "crack" and "drunk")... Now this is a brand of rap that rappers call talentless, generic, derivative, repetitive, and rhythmically dull .  From wikipedia: "In the hip hop world, crunk rappers have been criticized for lacking lyrical content, creativity, and using essentially the same beats and styles. Rapper MC Lars satirized the genre in his song "Generic Crunk Rap," in which he commented on its decided unoriginality and consumeristic undertones. While agreeing that the subject of the lyrics are all more or less identical, others say that the music is specifically designed for the rowdy clubs in which this style thrives."

Crunk it up! "Ow we got the crunk, give up the crunk."

Yup, I for one cant stand the so called "EMO" style, i think that this "famous" style isn´t anything worth hearing.

i dislike all of those genres, however i'd say pop is the worst one. i like some death metal (children of bodom, mercenary). i don't care for rap but some of the non commercial rap isn't as bad. at least even though i don't care for it some of them do it for love of music and not to make money.
i think country should be on there as well

As much as I hate rap, I'm going to have to vote for Pop/Punk, just because it's all I ever hear, and it's bloody awful.

Me being a musician, hate people that stop making the music they love to play to get a hit mainstream record, it just infuriates meCensored. Thats why I chose pop punk because eventually when they do get the hit song and get radio airplay, they wright the exact same stuff on theyre next album, not out of inspiration which is basically what prog is all about.

EMO...so sad, RAP actually has very few catchy things, everything EMO stands for is terrible.

Rap is not music, but by far the worst choice. The only choice I can put up with is modern rock but gangsta rap...just no. Oh and for those who said it, I link Reggaeton with rap as being absoluetly awful.
