    Pearl Jam.
    Dropkick Murphys
    Mumford and Son
    Barenaked Ladies

    Plus I'm sick of trying to convince everyone that Nickelback is actually Country. (photograph, rock star - neither would sound out of place on a country station.)

    i'm not sure how popular he is, but he seems to get a lot of play on my local station. Jack white, can't stand his voice.

    Adele and Taylor Swift. I'm sure they're very talented, but I don't need to hear their music.

    How in the FK are the Chili Peppers listed here 3 times!? I have to leave.

    Agree!

    I am pretty easy-going when comes to music and like a lot of different types, genres, and artists. I could however do without most of the stuff my husband likes, such as Slipknot, Mushroomhead, and the like. Not my thing.

    And I could do without Kings of Leon. Yup, I said it.

    Taylor Swift (without the studio, she sucks and you are over 20 years old now, stop with the teenie-bop crap!)

    U2 - I just don't get it. The only half decent song they have is One Love and even that is only just acceptable.
    I only actually like it when I hear someone else play it, like the band that play in our local at the weekends.

    Adele and the Rolling Stones are 2 others that are mega popular and not my cup of tea.
    With Adele it's her music, not her voice - she is amazing. The Rolling Stones however, there is nothing about them I find appealing.

    ETA - MADONNA!! Can't believe I forgot to put her in there first. I HATE her with a passion, everything about her is awful.

    Nirvana. Cobain is ridiculously overrated, and moving on to form Foo Fighters was the best thing Grohl could have done.

    Also, I think the only good songs The Beatles ever put out were the ones that George Harrison primarily wrote. By far the most talented and underrated member of the band, and the only one who is deserving of the kind of recognition the band now has.

    I agree on Madonna, she is the definition of overrated. Don't know how I forgot her.

    Gastric bands :laugh:

    This just made me LOL at work and I might get caught not working because of it. Too funny!

    Bash away, but Metallica. I don't like them. I have tried and tried. Can't do it. I only like one song.

    Ditto. But I think I might like 2 songs. My husband loves them. They do, however, put on a great concert, so there's that.

    Taylor Swift, for sure.

    I have a very strong hate for Nickelback, but so do most people.

    If I didn't have to listen to Bieber, Taylor Swift, Nickelback, Bob Dylan, U2, Kenya West, and Celine Dion(I know there are a few more bands/singers out there) I would be happy.
  • VOLBEAT. That guys voice makes me want to go nuts. Think Elvis combined with Sinatra combined with James Hetfield and then processed to death. It sucks which is too bad for the band because if I didn't have to listen to that guy, I might be able to tolerate the rest.

    LOL My husband says the same thing. I like Volbeat. I saw them last year at Rocklahoma, one of the best live shows I've seen and I watch a lot of live music shows.

    I could go the rest of my life without ever hearing Nicki Minaj again. lol

    The Beatles.

    JM

    Me too! I can't stand the Beatles!

    *Gasp!* The heresy!

    (I, too, think they're overrated, along with The Doors).

    Wait... I'm not the only person who can't stand Adele and thinks she rips her music off?? I got superflamed on Youtube for bashing one of her videos. haha.. this was two years ago and I still get emails from youtube of people responding that I'm stupid (just not that nice about it).

    LOL.. Biebs, Taylor Swift and Carrie Crapmypants Underware .. can not STAND her. Ughs.. the whole goody two shoes thing drives me crazy not to mention she sings as if she has straws up her nose. Toby Keith and most main stream country just blows anymore. Keep Miranda Lambert and the Chicks, send the others packing, including that orange faced Chesney. Ughs.

    I just saw them in concert over the weekend. And I said pretty much the same thing. The music itself is good, but that guys voice drives me nuts.

    I don't get this. Why do people hate on Nickelback? They have a couple good songs out there

    Can I also say how Nicki Minaj has absolutely no talent and shouldn't even be allowed to speak?
