I love and respect all music. I even like French accordian music and BAGPIPES!
But Phil Collins - ghod, I can hear the screeching in my head as I type this - Make it STOP!! AAGGHH!!!
I merely dislike
Britney Spears,
Creed,
Limp Bizkit, or however they choose to spell it,
Korn,
Marilyn Manson,
and others of their ilk,
my true ire is reserved for Jennifer Lopez. If I have to hear one more song about how “real” she is, I’m going to projectile vomit. How real can she be when she has to keep proclaiming it to the masses. Methinks the lady doth protest too much.
Kenny Chesney- butt ugly,sleazy,notalent,wimpy little scumbag,I get the impression he probably eats his own boogers.
Garth Brooks- overgrown,stuck on himself,whiny,no account,puddinfaced faker. Gag me with a spoon…
Sheryl Crow- sickening, willing to do anything,anyway to get airplay and stay the hell off of my country music stations.
Nickleback- can we say,…homegrown imbreds?
Avril whateverhernameis.
K.D. Lang
Melissa Etheridge, needs a shave
Helen Reddy- Remember her?? hahahahahahahaha
There’s more on the list but it just pisses me off to think about it anymore…
- Celine Dion
- Shania Twain
- Garth Brooks (never thought about him much, but that Pepsi commercial did it)
- Matchbox 20
- Metallica (Napster-related)
- Britney Spears
- Mariah Carey
- any boy band
- P. Diddy
- Michael Bolton
There’s a bunch of others who i don’t particularly dislike, but at the same time i’ve ever quite understood the big deal, including The Grateful Dead and The Dave Matthews Band.
You’ll notice that almost everyone on my list has already appeared on this thread. That’s because i prefer to spend my time buying and listening to artists i like, and i don’t really sit and stew very much about the idiots listed above. But when they show up on my TV screen, or i am reminded of them, my venom kicks in.
I have perfect taste in music. All the bands I like are really, really good.
Disturbed. I just fucking hate their music.
QUEEN
I didn’t like bohemian rhapsody when it was first released and
have grown to detest it with with each re-release.
Also add all invented “bands” from spice girls onwards.
If I could make any one band could go away, I’d merge the Stones, the Dead, and the Steve Miller band into one of those supergroups, find Rush to fly the tour plane, and put a large mountain in thier flight path.
Why? I dunno. It’s inexplicable.
wow. I’m surprised no one has mentioned Björk yet. (I love her, but I was soo expecting to see a few posts with hate for her up here.
The bands I hate are(in no particular order):
Lifehouse
Limpbizkit
Eminem
Creed
Vengaboys
Dave mathews band
Radiohead(One big whine)
The Doors (I sit me, or does that song just go on forever? Oh…That was three different songs.)
Jimi Hendreix (His unique style may have made him a genious in somes eyes, but I think he’s just a sad freak)
Led Zeppelin ( Used to love them as a youth, but radio has killed them.)
As for Music Types, I’ll second that mention of anyone screaming or growling instead of singing (Kills off Metalica, Ozzy, et al.) Guys, if you want me to like your message, I have to be able to undestand it!
As well as the “Barbie Girls”. Blondes with perfect figures and slutty make up. (ie. Christine, Brittany, Jessica) The Virgin/Slut gig was done by Madonna 20 years ago, lets try something that isn’t prepackaged
I’ll raise you Pretty Boys singing country music (Vince Gill, Billy Ray) I want my country ugly and miserable. Like it’s supposed to be.
i see, of course, why one would hate Marilyn Manson or Kid Rock, but the thing is they both make above-average music.
and what’s wrong with Kylie Minogue ? she’s just regular average pop without any claims to originality, plus she has good legs. what is there to hate about her ? of course we get almost NO AIRPLAY of Kylie here in US, maybe if somewhere in Europe there is as much of her as there is of Lopez in here, then i would probably hate her too 
that no talent ass clown, michael bolton
and van halen
and boy bands
and enrique (is that a boy band)
Phish
Ratdog
Any incarnation of the surviving members of the Dead.
Look, here’s a thought: how about taking the word “inexplicably” in the title seriously?
If you’re a harcore rap fan, of COURSE you’re going to hate 'N Sync. If you’re a heavy metal freak, of COURSE you’re going to hate Kenny G. If you’re a country and Western lover, of COURSE you’re going to hate Frank Zappa. There’s NOTHING remotely “inexplicable” about hating music from genres you dislike.
Concentrate on the word “inexplicable.” It means “without a reason.” It means “I can’t explain this.”
So, tell us some artists you hate for no good reason. A band that you OUGHT to like, a band that plays just the kind of music you usually love, an artist who SEEMS like a great guy, but who just rub you the wrong way for reasons that you can’t explain.
I can’t think of a musical act thatI hate “inexcplicably,” but I can think of several celebs I hate, even though there’s no valid reason for it. Example? Well, Carlton Fisk was just the sort of “throwback” player I ordinarily admire- the kind of tough, gritty, give-it-your-all catcher I OUGHT to love. But I couldn’t stomach the guy. THAT’S inexplicable (and it’s NOT just because I was a Yankees fan; I NEVER had any similar hostility for Yastrzemski or Fred Lynn).
Use that as a guideline. Who do you hate that, by rights, you OUGHT to love?
Counting Crows
Why? I dislike any band where the male lead singer sounds like a pre-pubescent whiney little girl. For christ sakes! Quit yer damn crying!
Avril. Ugh…
For some reason I like bagpipes…
Oy.
Inexpicably, it’s Lyle Lovett
Hate is too strong a word, though. I love the genre he plays, and admire him for his place in the scope of things; he seems like a good enough guy. I just can’t listen to him, though. I’ve had friends tape his albums for me, saying, “You’ll LOVE him”. I never can get beyond a couple of songs without bailing.
The worst was when a sweet visiting music researcher bought tickets for me & my hon to a Lyle Lovett concert in Oxford, MS. He was so enthusiastic, and it was the umpteenth time someone told me that theyknew I’d love Lyle. Figgered, OK, I’ll give it another try. After 15 minutes, it was painful. I’ve never wanted to get up and leave a concert so badly. The sweet guy who bought the tix was sitting right next, though, and enjoying it so much I didn’t have the heart to leave. I don’t get it…I love that style of music, and like the odd way Lyle looks, but something just goes awry twixt the earbones for me.
I’ve never figured out why this is the case, but Artie Shaw was always a disappointment to me, considering the way he hypes himself.
Garth Brooks sucks. I can’t listen to him. He’s suppossed to be talented.
Axl Rose is too much of a tool to be worth my senses.
Willie Nelson. God bless him. I actually like ole Willie but his songstylings make me motion sick.
And then there’s always Yoko. HAROOOOOOO!!! (?!)
