25 bands I like. Choose a least/less liked by you

These are 25 bands I am into. It was hard narrowing this down, but I thought this quite an interesting list per my tastes.

The idea is to vote for one, just one of these bands, that you have listened to music by that did not do it for you or did it for you the least from what you know. Preferably you will have listened to at least one full album by the act, or various music across various albums by the act, but that need not be the case.

It is normal that some albums or tracks might do it more for you than others by these bands, but I don't wish it to be judged based just on the material you least like by an act (when you might already really like other material by the act), but preferably vote for an act that just did not appeal at all, or much, or least, across your listening of said band. Or approach it as best you can in regards to what you would think suits this poll.

If voting for one that seemed not to your tastes, please mention the listened to by you material if you recall. I do hope for discussion element to polls I create, and like specificity as much as possible.

If you don't want to play as requested and instead came here to complain about the poll, please just stay away. And maybe make your own awesome poll. I say this because I received such complaints before years ago for a topic with a somewhat similar theme.

And if one is to say, "None of them", or some such sentiment, I would ask to be much more specific, explain your position, and go into details about what you have heard of these.

Voted Magma - however much I've tried, I just can't get into them.

I like the debut the most by Magma, a grand double-album debut from 1970, but I could see it not being easy for many others (especially if they aren't into much jazz-rock).

I'll go with the biggest band on this list, Radiohead. Tried, but Thom Yorke just ruins it for me. Could have gone with Magma too.

I like VDGG. Own a few of their records. King Grizzard, Black Midi and Soft Machine have a fair bit of stuff I like, that pushes me into I like them as a band. Most of these bands fall into the indifference category for me.

I keep trying to get into Magma, but they just aren't taking for me...

I'd be easier to choose which ones I do like! So, I've decided to put the 👍 emoji next to the bands I like and the 🤮 emoji next to the ones I can't stand. There we go.

After thinking about it, Swans.

A couple of times and I regret ever listening to that nauseating "ambient" racket. I'm sorry.

Since you used the "ambient" descriptor, I'm going to have to assume what you heard was Zeit. If that's as far as you got, you don't know Tangerine Dream. Give Force Majeure a try.

I voted for Squid. Not that I really mind them, but to me they mostly just sound like an underwhelming imitation of more talented artists that came before.
