Topic: Band That Angers You Most Posted: February 13 2010 at 15:50 |

Not to mention that they polluted every group journal with some nonsense about "the clown" and about how much Juggalos love each other. They seem to center their entire lives around a music group, which I can't even fathom. What a bunch of, well, clowns |
*sigh*, the ICP. Just another reason I'm glad I'm out of high school.

yes, there's much, MUCH worse. Like most death metal and punk, just about all rap, emo, and pop, and a good amount of newer prog bands. By my standards, Harmonium's practically in the top 10%

OK, you are excused. "Pretty good" is quite a compliment when coming from a ... negativlandian?

Your tastes are now officially bad

Okay, after a bit of listening, I guess it's pretty good. However, it's just not my thing. And I can't help it if Sweden is a thousand times better than French Canadia  jk

Well, OK, they've released a few standout songs since Achtung. But overall, their post 1990s output has been pretty bland and creatively lazy. They're one of those bands who probably would have been better if they'd stayed underground and not become massive.

I've never heard "Pop" in it's entirety but Discotheque, Staring At The Sun, Mofo, If God Will Send His Angels and Last Night On Earth were excellent. I liked a couple of tracks from the next album too.

U2 were actually OK before and up to the Achtung Baby era. After that, they've been a shadow of their former selves. The guys made three albums in the 2000s, and yet they still have millions of dollars. It doesn't take years to make a record. If you're into your music, it takes a few months! Glad I'm not a big GnR fan. 16 years wait and dozens of lineup changes between records!

I agree with many of the above mentioned. Except while I don't like the popular era of GFR I love the Red album. Thats just three piece jamming to the max.

It's not something I wish to think about any longer. It doesn't matter as much as it once did. But since I've had a few drinks , I will now reveal my anger and the bands that bring it all about. When I meet someone who is 30 years younger than me, or 10 or 20 years younger, or my age group, or much older, and they approach me like I'm a wax museum figure that grew up in the dinosaur pea brain generation of rock, it tends to get me angry. They start naming a entire host of bands that supposedly hail from my generation that I still to a large degree find offensive.
Grand Funk Railroad
Mountain
BTO
Foghat When I was a mere teenager and these bands first hit the music scene, I hated them. To me their sound was artificial. The nerve of Foghat trying to cover an old Chuck Berry tune and cranking up their ugly guitar sounds made me want to vomit. I grew up listening to Peter Green and Mike Bloomfield who had a beautiful distorted rock guitar sound. Foghat's guitar sound was like rum gasoline fizz.  Grand Funk Railroad's was spam olivaria. Mountain was like a side order of blatter puffs and BTO was the disease of the day. Like an atrocity cookie that was pulled out of a bag by a big hairy hand. I could see the chocolate chips on it, like the bulging eyes of a blind fish......that was hit by a mack truck and left on the highway. Certain memories never go away. I held out both hands and the cookie seemed heavy and big for a cookie. But I put it in my mouth........and the wave of chocolate goodness formed up around my gums, receding like a dead sea tide.....Then came the surprise....Four tiny razor sharp tips that latched into the roofs and bottoms of my mouth. My friends were smilin".....Harder then I'd ever see them smile before or since, while my Mom stuck that bath towel in my mouth and called for that ambulance. Well, Madhorse Farms remembers. Cause we been makin' atrocity cookies for over 5 milliennium. Don't forget our cinnammon flavored razor ribbon cluster cookies. Come back to the painful memories of youth. Comeback to Madhorse Farms. And there are good. There good because there are dead. You can smell the goodness before you choke on it. That's because Madhorse Farms remembers the plaque of Athens. Even if you don't.

I supose Uriah Heep after David Byron, mostly because I love the band in the Byron years, after that its utterly crap and a total embarrasment
I could mention bands like U2, Rem and so on but luckily since I dont work in a place with comercial radio blasted out the entrie days, they are dead to me 
Bono seem to be comming back as a ghost though

You know, the band never managed to crack the US market before they turned hair-metal, and were therefore pretty unknown outside Europe - in spite of having some former Deep Purple members in their ranks (Coverdale, Paice and Lord). Being familiar with the original versions of "Here I Go Again" and "Crying in the Rain", I cannot say I'm a big fan of what they did in order to make them more palatable for the US market. Moreover, Coverdale all but shot his voice to hell in trying to imitate Robert Plant, who has a completely different range.

I never liked the hair-metal version of Whitesnake, but was very much into their earlier incarnation - the hard-rock-blues one, which very few people (save Pablo and me, perhaps  ) seem to be aware of. Nothing to do with the bunch of posers portrayed above!

If someone could guarantee me that there would be vacancy in Hell with sufficient head-room to accommodate these hair-gel abusers, I will renounce all my worldly vices and take up the priesthood tomorrow.  Whitesnake - (it's foolhardy to scale one's appendage to that of the creature it belongs to)
