Hate a band? Let's talk about it.

Post by Telliot » Fri Oct 28, 2016 10:30 am

You don't even need to explain.

I'll start.

I hate:

Oasis
The Alabama Shakes
Dinosaur Jr
Smashing Pumpkins
The Jayhawks
The Replacements
The Strokes
The Avett Brothers
Interpol
Modern country music, as a general rule.

Some of these are kind of low hanging fruit. I've been told over and over again how amazing The Alabama Shakes are, and I just can't fucking stand them.
The cool thing about fretless is you can hit a note...and then renegotiate.

Too many new bands to list.
And quite a few old ones too.

Contemporary pop-country? No thanks.
Mumford and Sons? NOPE. BIG F*CKIN NOPE.
Other suspender-clad, bearded bands brandishing folk instruments who appear to shop the same civil war reenactment boutiques? REAL BIG NO.

I'm sure there are many many others but I'll stick with these at the top my list.

Ugh. Mumford and Sons anger me to no end.

Also: Coldplay.

I don't know, it's funny, I'm so cut off from media that the things that used to terrorize me seem distant and unimportant. Like, I used to resent the shit out of having to hear the Eagles, I'd wonder how that was forced on me, but now I never hear them, and they are just a footnote in history, unimportant and who cares.

I feel that way about a lot of stuff.
Back in those days, everyone knew that if you were talking about Destiny's Child, you were talking about Beyonce, LaTavia, LeToya, and Larry.

THAT'S NOT THE POINT, LARRY! The Eagles should provoke a visceral response inside you so potent that it wells up and overflows into a virtual hate lava, scorching the earth and taking no prisoners.

Phoenix Thunderstone was probably worse.

Grimple was a disappointment because they changed their sound a lot.

Yeah, Live, Sound Garden, those both suck horribly. All grunge did. Alice and Chains? Terrible. Pearl Jam? Awful.
