I did a search and found nothing on this topic. What is the uglyist, worst sounding music you can think of? I don't mean because its by bad musicians or anything like that. I want to find something that will make most people say "Uhh...excuse me, would you please turn that crap off." I want to find something that will basically clear the room of life. I know someone who said this happened with U Totem's second album, and with Trout Mask Replica. All suggestions are welcomed.

Captain Beefheart is a great example. Very difficult listening. Perhaps VdGG...most people find their sound horrific. |

I second Meshuggah...they are just disgusting sounding. They're fantastic though. Also, some serious live Mars Volta will disgust many, many people. Le sigh. Any RIO band...will scare the sh*t out/weird out any mainstream listener. |

Meshuggah is actually really comforting and soothing to me.

I managed to get some people mad at me yesterday for playing Sound
Chaser by Yes at a party (some people kept repeating 'Say no to
Yes'). But really, if all they're used to is the stuff that's
popular today, then most prog will do (I've managed to get people
really pissed at me for playing Dark Side of the Moon and Aqualung).

Try "Eskimo" by the Residents. And then try to imagine they made an EP with remixes of some of the songs on it called "Diskimo", that was supposed to be played in discos. -------------  A shot of me as High Priestess of Gaia during our fall festival. Ceterum censeo principiis obsta |

| Ugly music can be very fun and entertaining or just plain ol' ugly. For the former try Beefheart or the Residents, for the latter any of the viler metal bands will do. |

the ugliest form of music, in my opinion is death metal. The first time i heard some of these bands i couldn't stop laughing. And they have ridiculous names like canibal corpse, and dying foetus! -------------

'Ugly' music rules ! All these 'ugly', extreme genres like death metal, grindcore, free jazz, RIO etc. are so tough to get into, but nearly always prove all the more rewarding in the end.------------- "In war there is no time to teach or learn Zen.

I also like "ugly" music, as I like "beutiful" music too. I once terrorized a party with a KING CRIMSON compillation I had done on casette from Wetton-Cross era. They survived it long, but during the halfway of "Providence" I heard somebody shut the stereo. Try PAT MENTHENY's "The sign of four" Knitting Factory performance. Not quite as gentle as his basic productions. |

Gorguts, especially the Obscura album...think Captain Beefheart playing metal Ruins would probably scare most people, although they do rock, and bass/drum duos seem to be quite popular |

Well.....Meshuggah is deff. not fun for the ears, but I like it. Music that would make me run screaming from any room is pop/punk. Good Charlotte, Blink 182, Simple Plan, etc. Why do you want to know? I hope you're not planning on making some hideous CD of the worst music you can get to annoy your friends at say, some poker game.............

The bands that come to mind include: Good Charlotte, Blink 182, Jimmy Eat World, Alkaline Trio etc. etc. I find the music dull and boring, and the vocals quite irritating. If you don't consider some of these bands Emo then i apologise, but they're the sort of bands that come to my mind
