    Preparing to be bashed into oblivion but I cannot stand Nirvana or the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

    *leaves room slowly*
    The Red Hot Chili Peppers were great until EVERY SINGLE SONG they came out with started sounding the same.

    this is actually called vibrato and is very difficult to accomplish.

    I'm sure it is. It also sounds like **** :drinker:

    Pretty much any female singer who is celebrated as being a powerful vocalist yet can't actually hold a note without wibble-wobbling it up and down. This includes Whitney Houston, Christina Aguilera, Mariah Carey, Celine Dion and practically everyone else who the term "diva" is applied to. Wanna see a woman who can actually sing - Ruthie Henshall - nuff said.

    it's fine that you don't like them. But, holding a note isn't like lifting 200 pounds. their voices aren't buckling at the weight of the note. these are called melisma (or "runs" for the slang term) where a singer hits multiple notes in key up and down for one syllable of music.

    anyway, like i said, that doesn't mean you have to like it, it just seemed like you were equating the "wibble-wobble" with weakness (and there are plenty of men who do this as well).

    Thank you for clearing that up... you beat me to it. Those four singers are not on my favorites list, but you cannot argue that they don't have powerful voices. I'm not a huge fan of that style, either... I just wouldn't attack them for it. (Full disclosure: I am a vocalist, and I don't sing in that style. I sound more like Ann Wilson and Karen Carpenter had a love child.)

    Nickel back. Bruce Sprinstein. Avril Levigne. (sp? Oh who cares!) Katy Perry. Most crap on the radio. Anything that claims to be "death metal" ( excluding Dethklock lol)... New "country" music. Wow, I'm such a hater! Lol

    Kesha sounds like someone is strangling her every time she sings. I kind of wish it was me.

    Nickleback, Bruno Mars, Christina Perry, Katy Perry, Mumford and Sons, Rhianna.

    All of them make me want to claw off my ears... or their ears, preferably.

    Mumford & Sons?? I don't know you, but you're dead to me.


    I kid, I kid. Barely. *glares*

    The Beatles
    The Who
    Rolling Stones

    And any other stupid one hit wonders
    I surely hope you are not calling the above 3 bands "one-hit wonders"...

    I think that was the joke.

    Lil Wayne, Miley Cyrus, Britney Spears, Taylor Swift, Bruno Mars, and I don't like how every song from Mumford and Sons sounds exactly the same...

    Hate me for my choices...it's a free country! (where I live anyway)

    Ugh. Rush. And they just had a concert here. It was like torture, the radio way playing a ton of their crap.

    My wife plays 'Winter Winds' and "I Will Wait" just to watch the blood rush to my face. I'm okay with glares.

    Brian Johnson or Bon Scott?

    Better way to ask - Back in Black or Highway to Hell? Two different singers.

    Am I the only one who doesn't see the point in ranting about bands you don't like?

    In my opinion, you should always promote what you love, not bash what you don't.

    But hey, I'm just a dirty hippie, what do I know?

    If you don't like it, don't comment. No one pointed a gun to your head and forced you to click on this thread.

    I think you just answered your own question.

    My business is managing the careers of recording artists. This thread cracks me up because I always tell a new young client that's yet to find success - Hey, you'll know you're a success when millions of people claim to hate you. That's REAL success in this industry.

    I don't get the Nickelback hate...like its cooler to say you hate them than like them.

    Agreed...
