Just the usual "their fame came out of nowhere and now they can do anything (which usually ends up sounding a whole lot like 'nothing much' to me) and still sell thousands of albums" suspects.

I don't think I "hate" any band or artist - mostly I simply have no feelings either way if I'm uninterested in their stuff.

I DO hate some albums (Loveless is a typical offender) but what really makes me snap and go all Hulk is some bands fans. For instance, Radiohead do nothing for me, but I have no strong feelings for them - most of their sheepish fans, however, are the scum of the earth to me.

Who exactly is 'everyone'? 
Nickleback are doing pretty good for themselves financially yet they always get mentioned when folks talk about the worst bands ever (let's face it - they come close).
ABBA is widely considered THE best/worst band ever by equally many people.

Fair point David but for me, although I don't own a single one of their records, am objective enough to recognise ABBA made brilliant pop music while Nickleback, although millions will disagree, don't.

If I liked one ABBA song (I don't mind several actually) that's one more than any dickleback song, I can assure you

I Hate All Modern Pop musicians because more they are concerned about the picture than about making good music
