    I don't understand Mastadon or U2 or Zepp... I know there's good music in there I just don't get it at all... They've always left me cold and I don't get people liking them... Bit random eh?

    Then again I like some guilty pleasures (Seether, the shame of it) etc...

    That's funny cos none of those bands (apart from Arctic Monkeys maybe) are actually indie bands. I think you need to look up the definition of what 'indie' music is :rolleyes:
    Even funnier, is the fact none of them are even "Hard Rock" bands either...

    The only one with anything remotely hard would be Muse, and thats like 2-3 songs at most.

    My personal irritations would include:

    Avenged Sevenfold (a travesty they played directly before Metallica this year)
    Dragonforce (w**kers):pac:
    Nirvana (overrated)
    Trivium (have hated these since they broke through at ozzfest years ago)
    GnR (affectionately now known as Axel and friends:p)

    What's wrong with Seether? they're not that bad of a band are they? or am I the only one who likes them?:(

    Wow a lot of those bands have been a huge influence on my life. In fact, Pantera, Soulfly, Manowar and Avenged Sevenfold are the only bands on that list that I'm not particulary big on.

    Ive highlighted the bands that I like on your list, in addition, most of the bands youve listed are time honored classics and metal legends :) sheesh the posters here should have to pass a music knowledge/taste test before being allowed to post here!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,263 ✭✭✭ride-the-spiral


    The following bands I do not like because of the music. To add another layer of annoyance, the fans of them make it seem like if you do not like the bands then you aren't a true fan of music or metal.

    SLAYER
    AC/DC
    Kiss
    Cannibal Corpse
    Gorgoroth
    Burzum
    U2
    Led Zeppelin (They ain't that bad, but I've never gotten the hype)
    Deicide
    Ozzy Osbourne
    Rage Against the Machine
    Nine Inch Nails

    And of course the obligatory Kerrang crowd but I decided to not make this thread sound like a broken record of mainstream music hating. :cool:

    I think a lot of people are posting big bands they don't like as opposed to bands they actually hate

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    Cannot stand Kiss, Guns and Roses, Davy Bowie, and too many others to mention.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,672 ✭✭✭deman


    The thread states two things that a lot of people seem to have overlooked....

    Heavy Metal / Hard Rock..... NOT David Bowie or U2

    ...that you really hate..... NOT dislike

    AC/DC I can live without.

    GnR
    Linkin Park
    Daughtry/Shinedown/Creed (all sound roughly the same to me)
    MCR
    30 Seconds To Mars
    Avenged Sevenfold
    Green Day
    Nickelback
    Rage Against The Machine (just overplayed, TBH)
    Paramore
    NiN
    Prog like Marillion, Pendragon etc.
    Tool
    Nirvana
    Suffoclones (pseudo-term for generic death metal)

    There's probably more, I just can't think of them.


    Awwwww maaaaan!!! They're legends!

    I hate hate HATE Kiss, Aerosmith, RATM. Guns n Roses are atrocious(IMO!).

    I never really got into Cannibal Corpse. I tried, but it just was.... "samey"! No element to their music stood out to me and made me think -Not bad!!! I used to be a huuuuge Slipknowt fan, but after the last album, just.... no. No.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,129 ✭✭✭Nightwish


    There are loads of bands I really dislike. At the moment the top of the list is the Kings of Leon which are beyond are horrific. I dont like screamo/emo bands like MCR, Bullet for my Valentine and Avenged Sevenfold. I also dont like pop punk bands like Green Day, Good Charlotte etc. Other bands that I find to be awful are Paramore, Billy Talent, Sunno))), Visions of Atlantis, Edenbridge and Octavia Sperati.


  • Registered Users Posts: 444 ✭✭ZzubZzub


    +1 for Paramore. They make me a saaad panda
    :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,263 ✭✭✭ride-the-spiral


    Good lord Sunn O))). I have never been so bored

    What's wrong with Edenbridge? :(

    Too generic and uninspired for me!

    well done!!!

    I posted this a while back on this thread, they have to be the WORST pile of droning crap i have ever heard!

    Not.

    Yeah, while I quite like Sunn O))), I can see why they wouldn't be everyone's cup of tea. It needs to be listened to differently than most music.


  • Registered Users Posts: 26 Little_miss_syn


    Any of that "screamo ****e" beyond the horizon and enter shikari especially


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,263 ✭✭✭ride-the-spiral


    I presume you mean Bring Me The Horizon the deathcore band, and not Beyond the Horizon the up-and-coming macedonian Melodic Death Metal band. :rolleyes:

    I've heard alot of Deathcore, and Bring Me The Horizon are without a doubt the worst i've heard. They just got pushed by Kerrang! because of Oli Sykes hair and now they're the only deathcore band that any of these people listen to or have heard. It's annoying that the biggest band in a relatively unknown genre are tagged as screamo. Suicide Silence are pretty crappy too!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10 noprayerforme

    I hate all those as well including the new Metallica. I also hate/dislike these popular metal bands:

    Devildriver

    Rammstien
    Steel Panther
    Buchcherry
    New Cradle of Filth

    Every Time I Die
    Five Finger Death
    Punch
    Gallows
    Gojira
    Hatebreed
    Killswitch Engage
    Kataklysm

    Their is probably thousands of other metal bands that I don't like as well. I also hate most of the bands featured in the likes of Metal Hammer except for Immortal, Paradise Lost, Emperor, Maiden etc.
