All of the above except the final option and "voice is boring." My biggest problem is that I don't like the guy. He seems fake, pompous and holier-than-thou. I don't like his solo music at all but I don't find all people who produce music I don't like annoying.
Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal.

As I don't listen to lyrics, I don't care about the content. The music is awesome, and I like his voice.

"Hey ROIN! Hey ROIN! I have this great idea! You know that song you wrote "My Cruel World", well i was thinkin' that's a bit dark. It doesn't sing well either. 'Cruuuel'. So I was thinking of adding a chorus! My new world is spnning me aroooound WOAH! yeah lets do that a few times, and cut out that depressing end part. The ending needs to be epic!"

I like the guy, but I can see how certain people might find him annoying.

"Oh by the way do you remember that song we've been working on, "Dance With The Devil"? It just doesn't seem to sing that well. So I was thinking Duel With The Devil instead. It just sings better, man. Duuuuuueeeel with the devil. Ha, man, it felt so cruel to sing it as Daaance."

Cheesy, derivative and grating are all things about him that bother me. His spiritual leanings don't affect me one way or the other.
Heaven's made a cesspool of us all.

For him to annoy me I would have to know him personally....which I don't, so he does not annoy me. I don't think he is awesome, so I picked other as I think he is very good at what he does.

This about sums it up for me too. When he posted his letter about leaving Spock's Beard on their website, I must admit it seemed a bit disingenuous to me.
