I despise Eminem. If he's not being all-around immature or down-right stupid, he's rapping about himself. He gives me a headache every time he's even mentioned.

Such an easy answer but Lady Gaga. I can't stand her, she's very annoying and I don't know how to put it but it seems to me she tries too hard to be weird. The worst thing is people buy it and eat it up.

She probably has a few fans here though so I'll leave it at that.

I don't listen to the radio at all, because I hate most Top 40 music. I get annoyed too when I hear some crappy song from 2001 that still gets air time.

I don't know, Nickelback grosses me out. Angels and Airwaves has a special seating on my chart of dislike too.

I loved Blink 182 when I was a kid. I think that's why I hate it so much, maybe.

I actually had to see Angels and Airwaves in concert once, because a friend and I really wanted to see the opener for one of their shows, and instead of leaving we stuck around for a bit. Tom was doing some awkward dance the entire time and crap was coming out of his mouth about being young and in love and how it's like being tied to rockets.

It was embarassing.

I would say Lady Gaga, but the biggest reason I hate her is she truly has amazing talent, but it's wasted on that tripe she constantly releases, and she has an amazing voice she insists on making sound terrible, so I hate her mostly on that merit.

The band that most legitamitely deserves hate for the shear level of horrid that is their music though, I nominate Brokencyde. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N8F5YSA1Oz0)

At the moment it would probably be Owl City. I was subjected to that :bou::bou::bou::bou: constantly at work for about two months and I haven’t really recovered. His “music,” if one can call it that, makes a compelling case for the use of auto-tune being made a capital offence.

Objectively he’s not as bad as Brokencyde, but I don’t know of anyone who actually likes Brokencyde, so I don’t hate them as much.

Phil Collins.

COLDPLAY.

There are plenty of artists I dislike (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_-agl0pOQfs), plenty I think are hugely (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONXp-vpE9eU) overrated (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JiOw0chwxTk), and some I downright hate (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r8OipmKFDeM&feature=channel).

But nothing compares to my feelings towards Coldplay. It is beyond words. It is beyond mortal comprehension. I feel like Muhammed or Moses must have felt in their divine inspiration, only I have experienced a revelation of sheer, pure hatred, of a kind that would make Satan recoil.

He would just go on and on about how awesome he is because he plays tennis and he's dating some girl who's 22 and he listens to Coldplay and is concerned about the environment and has this awesome job at the aquarium. He'd make my friend and I feel like :bou::bou::bou::bou: because we didn't pay attention or do much work during class. It was high school, nobody cares :nonono:

You know, I recall seeing this years ago and I thought "Thanks Captain Obvious!" You could do this with thousands of songs and playing them together they'll have a main beat pattern or tempo that's the same.

According to this logic 90% of all the music ever produced SOUNDS EXACTLY THE SAME OMGRIPOFFARTISTSAMECRAPOVERAGAINBAWW!

But I agree that most of Nickleback's stuff is pretty unpleasant (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BB0DU4DoPP4).

06-27-2010, 05:32 AM
It's a bit rarer when the chord patterns turn out not to be terribly dissonant when superimposed over one another as well, though. Plus, at least most artists I listen to change up the tempo from time to time in their songs.

Also in BarelySeeAtAll's defence I don't think he was trying to imply that all of the artists he mentioned were whiny, just MCR. It's still a pretty dumb list though, because, as already mentioned, Oasis, Gorillaz and Muse are legions better than MCR.

I agree completely. I remember seeing that years ago as well, and had the exact same thought. There are tons of more legitimate reasons to hate Nickelback. The music does tend to sound the same, but that's because they're just a bland and crappy band rather than them actually copying themselves.

The Man

Yeah, I don't think they're actually intentionally copying themselves; it just goes to show they have a lack of musical imagination which results in all their songs sounding the same.

And I'm not going to lie. I love Owl City, Ke$ha and some of the other stuff that's been listed. I can cope with Brokencyde to a point, after the first couple of songs I'm practically dying inside. Same with Family Force 5. I currently have Dance Or Die stuck in my head, and it's depressing.

As far as hating goes, Nickleback tops the list. There's also spots for Metro Station, Lil Wayne, Kanye West, Tinchy Stryder, N Dubz, Chipmunk and so on and so forth.

Can't say I hate any musicians really. I even get sick enjoyment out of how terrible Brokencyde are. Not that I would go out of my way to listen to them, but imposing that :bou::bou::bou::bou: on others is golden.

I'm glad two people read what I wrote properly. Thanks Neo for remembering who I really am, and thanks Jiro for realising I'm a chick, not a dude ;) Thank you The (wo)Man.

Another few artists I've realised I hate:

N-Dubz. You aren't cool, grow up.
I liked Example for a tiny tiny while, but he's kind of getting overplayed and my mate won't shut up about him. When that happens you can't resist disliking them.
Nickelback played the other day. :mad2:.
Gone off Disturbed, but that's no hate..

Why did I say that? No idea.

Owl city went through a random spell of good, then everyone got lovey dovey over them and I must have missed something.

Erm.

I wish I could contribute more.

To that end. I hate Kanye West.

I can't say I -hate- anyone, but rather, their voice probably annoys me. I say a lot of times that I would like bands more if there was no singer. An example of this would be Dave Matthews. God, I hate his voice. It makes me cringe, but the instrumentals are cool.

Oh, if we're talking about hating someone because of their personality then I'd go with John Mayer for, "And by the way, it's sort of a contradiction in terms, because if you really had a hood pass, you could call it a n----r pass. Why are you pulling a punch and calling it a hood pass if you really have a hood pass? But I said, I can't have a hood pass. I've never walked into a restaurant, asked for a table and been told, we're full."

What the heck is he talking about?

Actually I'd still go with Lil Wanye too because he said, "I'm gonna be in the white house someday" and was actually serious.

You know, I recall seeing this years ago and I thought "Thanks Captain Obvious!" You could do this with thousands of songs and playing them together they'll have a main beat pattern or tempo that's the same.

I agree completely. I remember seeing that years ago as well, and had the exact same thought. There are tons of more legitimate reasons to hate Nickelback. The music does tend to sound the same, but that's because they're just a bland and crappy band rather than them actually copying themselves.

Thing is, damn near everything you hear on the radio does this and it's far worse than you think. Almost any popular song you know has some variation of I, IV, vi, and V. I regularly sit at the piano and work on my ear-playing with popular music and it's laughable how often this is the case.

My wife and I like to also play a game in the car. It's called the "one note game." Because most songs are four-chord songs you can usually pick a single note and sing it straight through any song. The chord variety is so lacking that this one note will harmonize with almost every chord. Occasionally you might have to vary by a step every 4th chord.


I don't understand why people get so pissy.... well actually I do. It'[s triablism. It's the same reason people get so bent and defend themselves in 360 vs PS3 fights or pick a sports team and claim it to the superior in every way. That said, it's stupid. These artists haven't done anything to you. Hating them is a joke.


Lady Gaga is someone people love to hate. People just love jumping on the hate bandwagon. She's actually talented, but she's smart enough to play the game. She knows that talent won't get you crap in the music industry. Being weird and garnering attention while writing mediocre music will. She's sticking out on purpose and she's smarter for it. That doesn't make her music awesome, but there's no reason to hate her. Hate her all you like.





What I do dislike is what music has become. No one has real talent and those with it will have to hide it to make progress (Lady Gaga). You have to have an image. You can be tone deaf and become a musical start. The industry is full of image makers. They want beautiful people or interesting people or controversial people. They don't want musicians.

Some talentless hacks get lucky in the system while others work the system. The people who try to not sell out and try to be "real" artists aren't going to fare so well.

It's easy to judge someone for selling when your bills are paid.





EDIT: As for the John Mayer thing, I'm unaware of it as I haven't followed Mayer in several years. However, it sounds to me like he's making a valid point. If you have a hood pass you are free to say nigger. Therefore it's silly to call it a hood pass. Just call it a nigger pass. I disagree that it's really pulling any punches to call it a hood pass. It's just an easy way to refer to it for everyone whether or not they feel they can safely use the word nigger.

I could be wrong though considering I have no idea of the context in which he said it.

Nickelback and Katie Perry are the two worst offenders in my mind right now.

Nickelback (sounds the same in every song and easy to copy/make fun of), Brokencyde (is this even music?), Lil Wayne (self explanatory), Fall Out Boy, All Time Low, Cannibal Corpse (I may like metal but these guys are WAY fucked up), Justin Bieber.

I actually dislike 95% of rap music, the only kind I do prefer is select songs from Kid Cudi, Jay-Z, Ludacris, ect.

Nickleback has songs ranging from country to hard rock. I think the problem is that the stations you are listening to only like to play similar sounding ones. They aren't my favorite bands, but I feel their non multi-demographic hits are by far their best work.

I just about exclusively listen to the rock station in Vancouver, so I can't say I experience a wide slice of what is out there. Consequently I don't have any rap/hip hop/country artists to hate, as I never hear any of their songs.

#1 by FAR: Tragically Hip. IMO they such, and they are played SOOOO much here. I know so many people who hate them, which of course just creates a self perpetuating feedback loop of hate :D


Hating someone for producing music you don't like is ridiculous.
You can hate the artist independently of the person. If that makes any sense.

I hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate...sorry got a little crazy there and well you can see why:

COLDPLAY

Theres a perfectly valid reason beyond being subjected to 9 hours constant of the Viva La Vida album on it's release day which is reason enough...

Chris fucking Martin! Seriously the man is married to Gywnneth Paltrow one of the most beautiful women out there in the world. More to the point it's not just that he's married to her happily so, he has beautiful children with her and is so rich he can pretty much buy anything he wants including islands if he chose to. Do you think Chris Martin is happy? He certainly doesn't with his needy, whiny, stupid, angsty songs he constantly sings. I just want to beat him screaming in to his face to try singing something happy.

Oasis is good to great but as people they suck.

And NIRVANA!?!?!? Seriously? Well, I guess I understand. You see, Nirvana, while brilliant, was essentially the last "legendary" rock band (Muse could be the next and maybe Kings of Leon if they play their cards right). However, all the popular rock music still has a little Nirvana in it, bastardized and shameful Nirvana, but Nirvana. Everyone's trying to be the next Nirvana, which is a shame, because no will be Nirvana.

Nirvana is another overrated band. They didn't actually invent anything; they're basically just a more polished version of the Pixies. Kurt Cobain still wrote a lot of great songs though.

I think if you're in the right frame of mind when approaching it, Kurt Cobain's lyrics can really affect you, I associated with them an awful lot at one point and I still think they're brilliant.

If they weren't so hilarious to watch, I'd probably have to say Attack Attack! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YMf4NivM6TA)

I'll grant that Cobain's lyrics are often quite strong. If anything, that part of his music is often underrated.

I was at a point in my life where nothing anyone could say about Nirvana could ever phase me, I knew they were overplayed. I found it all sacrilegious, how people sung along but they knew not what it meant, or nothing. But I had a spot in my heart for Kurt Cobain, all of it. From Sub-Pop to all the radio-friendly poop that was being released towards the end, I loved it. It showed me a world of grunge rock I never would have been exposed to. Bands like Meat Puppets, Eyes Adrift (obviously post-Nirvana), Babes in Toyland, L7, and my personal favorite Mudhoney.

Then something happened.

Also people calm down. That is just a rumor that he will be playing Kurt Cobain and not actually confirmed.

Yeah, Cobain himself said that Nirvana wasn't original and that the Pixies did it first. I used to like them quite a bit but sort of grew out of them as I started listening to more diverse music thanks to Napster. I still love In Utero, though.

I hate trend and piggyback bands, no matter the genre. Or bands that sing about the same thing over and over (Ex. I lost my boy/girl :().
