Heavy Metal/Hard Rock bands that you really hate!

    I've been a fan of Heavy Metal/Hard Rock music for many, many years since the Number of the Beast era. And most bands that have come and gone since then have been great to listen to. But there are a few bands that really annoy me when their songs come on the radio. I'm lucky enough here in Finland to have 2 radio stations completely dedicated to rock, Radio Rock and Radio Sata. So I can switch over at the touch of a button.

    The main band that makes me switch over is Aerosmith. Their stuff makes me cringe. Love in an elevator... WHAT CRAP!!!! I just cannot stand it. The only song that is in any way decent is Dream On. Steven Tyler annoys with his whinning voice. He's a pretentious obnoxious p***k that looks like a badly held-together Spitting Image puppet. I mean, the guy fell off the stage quite recently because he forgot to take his zimmer frame with him. RETIRE!! And put us all out of our misery.

    Rant over

    One band I can't get into (and I've tried) is Mastodon. I just can't stand the music they make.

    You are factually incorrect.

    I never really got into Guns and Roses, I have to say.

    Obituary are ones I also never really got the hang of, for some reason.

    The majority of indie bands nowadays are just copycat bollocks, but at the same time you can get quite a bit of variation and there is some pure gold out there.

    Aerosmith
    Guns N' Roses

    Hmm, I get you. It took me a few listens to get what they're doing all right. I'd suggest with sticking to their first two albums. Anything after that is just crap! Especially their latest one.

    I loved Aerosmith at the start ''Aerosmith'' and ''Get Your Wings'' Were quality albums!

    Bands I can't stand:
      Testament Any death metal really Linkin Park The Smiths (Pretension of the highest order) Opeth (Hate Them)

    I'll give anything a listen the once and don't feel strongly about too much music but the above I cant stand!

    Canibal Corpse

    Muse (Everyone else I know are mad about them and I REALLY don't get it)
    Nickleback
    Paramore (I briefly liked them, but they lost ALL credibility for getting involved in the Twilight ****e.
    All American Rejects (Their song "I Wanna" sounded like somethnig from the Jonas Brothers)
    Green Day (Their old stuff was good, but it is all pretentious crap now)
    Coldplay

    Give me a half an hour on Scuzz and I will probably come up with more.

    It really was depressing to see a Scuzz countdown, that had Metallica at No. 8, and Nickleback at No. 6 :eek:

    Sorry Max Power, but those bands just do nothing for me. I'm not trying to derail this thread but my type of metal bands are Amorphis, Immortal, Moonspell, Bathory, Mercyful Fate, Paradise Lost, Emperor, old Dimmu Borgir, Iron Maiden, Celtic Frost, Tiamat, Old Man's Child, Hypocrisy, Faith No More etc.

    Each to their own. I'm generally not a fan of mainstream metal at all. I have'nt bought Metal Hammer in ages now because it has gone completely crap and very very mainstream in my opinion. Whereas Terrorizer and Classic Rock are much better reads these days.

    A few other bands I forgot about:

    Lamb of God
    Avenged Sevenfold
    Kings of Leon
    All American Rejects
    Razorlight
    Blink 182
    Obituary
    Christian Death
    Vader
    Disturbed
    Trivium
    3 Inches of Blood
    Manowar
    Children of Bodom (the first three albums were great but after that they really went downhill)
    Sum 41

    I don't entirely hate Mayhem, but I think that both 'De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas and Grand Declaration of War' were very good, but I never got into any of their other albums though.



  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Music Moderators, Regional Midlands Moderators Posts: 24,125 Mod ✭✭✭✭Angron


    Aye, I liked those two, but I also loved Deathcrush and Wolfs Lair Abyss (Fall of Seraphs ftw!) not to mention some of their live stuff


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,148 ✭✭✭damonjewel


    I am a big prog fan, but I find it extremely difficult to listen to some 80's english prog such as IQ, Pendragon etc. Its like punk never happened for these guys, for shame on them. The musicianship is ok but its the faux mystical nonsense written by Terry Pratchett's less talented drunken evil twin.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,493 ✭✭✭DazMarz


    Kings Of Leon definitely make my blood boil... I cannot ****ing stand them!!!

    Helloween were another group... I cannot believe I used to LOVE them... They are just too awful for words now. Can't even listen to classic albums like ''Keeper of Seven Keys'' anymore cos they've just shat all over themselves in the past few years.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,966 ✭✭✭✭Busi_Girl08


    Oh jaysus, HOW could I forget Kings of Leon?!!!!:mad: If I hear "The Sex is on Fire" on more time....AAAARGH!!

    Also...Snow Patrol :mad:
