Some of you seem to be having a hard time distinguishing the difference between bad music and bad lyrics.

I still listen to Linkin Park, Nsync, and Spice Girls. Let me show you how many smurfs I give:(SPOILER)0 blue smurfs
... Busted *bows head in shame* I WAS TWELVE.
Beastie Boyz sinking about how brass monkeys and the crappiness of school may have had a place in my life as an angsty teenager, but it serves no purpose to me now as an angsty adult.
When I first heard Linkin Park, I was visiting my cousins and I really didn't think much of their music. But then my cousin is in his own band so, family bias. However, his lead singer started dissing Linkin Park with no real reasons to offer save one. He said they needed to make up their minds about whether they were rock, pop, alternative, or what. For a long time, I hadn't liked this guy. I didn't like his "demonic vocals" because he sounded like an idiot and he really act like a prick a lot of the time. So I started paying attention to Linkin Park. Also Hoobastank.
You do realise they were taking the piss in pretty much all of those songs, right?
I'm going to helpfully chime in that I.... never really liked the Beastie Boys ever.
Time for some self-righteousness, ReloadPsi style!
I've liked game soundtracks my entire life and never seemed to care for what the media or my little sister shoved down my throat. It wasn't until years later that Guilty Gear's soundtracks led to me checking out Iron Maiden of all people and realising I'd probably dodged a bullet in terms of a life of liking awful crap.
Saying that, I have a LOT of MP3s of what one would consider terrible songs, largely because I enjoy them in an ironic "haha this song is soooo funneh" way. An occasional listen to Friday provides me with a few minutes of hysterical amusement.
In other words, there were no crap bands I liked in my youth. Some classmates when I returned to college tried to get me into Enter Shikari and U2 though. They failed.
There are some questions that echo through time. How did life begin? Is there a god? Where did Stonehenge come from? Why would anyone willingly become friends with someone who collects hair? These are eternal mysteries for which we may never know the answer.
I am similarly mystified by how anyone, ever, could like the Beastie Boys.

They're alright. I don't put them up with my favorites but when they come on the radio I turn the speakers up loud enough to shake my car.
I didn't think to name them earlier because I never listened to them. But here's one I did listen to many, many years ago: Blink 182.
i bought the first hanson album when it came out
i'm twenty six and still like a few songs by the bizkit - specifically "full nelson". there is/was nothing wrong with like Evanescence. Amy Lee's siren song has an effect that sells. Plus I'd take her on a hot date if given the chance. i liked insane clown posse when i was twelve. they were something different from what i was used to hearing at the time and we had common ground with faygo being just dee-licious.
