One of the most annoying things is people trying to persuade you to like bands for a reason...

I have a friend that tries to persuade me to like Enter Shikari . . .

"You're a musician, you should appreciate that the singer is a musical genius! And they're unique, there's nobody else like them!"

God I hate Enter Shikari!

And basically anything that's genre ends in "core"

Red Hot Chili Peppers
Slipknot

Slayer
Metallica

Enter Shakira (sic) - plain rubbish
Iron Maiden - never clicked with me
BMTH - bland
Mastadon - why does nearly EVERYONE like them?
Trivium - used to like them, can't stand them now
Any "emo" looking band even if only one of them looks emo with the fringe etc.
Singer/songwriters - boring!
Avenged Sevenfold - a bit emo for my liking

-Dream Theater (spell 'Theatre' right, you nimrods! Such a smart sounding band... Can't fúcking spell right. I don't like their widdling music either, btw!!!:mad:)

-Bring Me The Horizon (noise, screaming, useless)

-Metallica (not a band I hate, but I don't like them either; too big, too macho, too much)

-Slipknot (noise, screaming, useless)

-Avenged Sevenfold (noise, screaming, useless)

-Kings of Leon (useless, not really proper 'rock', whiney sounding)

-Queens Of The Stone Age (sludgey and overwrought riffing and a whacked out sounding frontman who is also an incredibe arsehole make me dislike this very smug band intensley; music not up to much either)

-Nirvana (same reasons as above; tho credit where credit's due, they invented grunge (or were the first hugely popular grunge act; Mother Love Bone and Temple of Dog were arguably first grunge acts/projects) but this is only another reason for me to hate them beyond comprehension)

-Helloween (power metal's daddies, but oh how they have trashed their legacy and become painful to listen to now)

probably a few more I can't think of right now, but the above will do nicely. I also tried to justify my rantings above too. Thank you, and goodnight...

I have to agree with you with all these bands. I especially hate Slipknot, and I just can't see whats so special about them. The guitar sound is a horrible downtuned sound and the riffs are horrible as well.:mad: It also really really really annoys me when people say that Joey Jordison is one the best drummers around.:mad: Hellhammer from Mayhem/Arturus/Kovenat etc, Horgh from Immortal/Hypocrisy, Nick Barker from Cradle of Filth/Dimmu Borgir etc and many other metal drummers are far better than him.

@ Nephilim Wolf - Can I ask why you don't like Rammstein?

GrizzlyMan

All of the above, and thought id mention AC/DC again ahhhhhhh Fu4kin hate them!

couldnt agree more with Nephilim Wolf

"Hellhammer from Mayhem/Arturus/Kovenat etc, Horgh from Immortal/Hypocrisy, Nick Barker from Cradle of Filth/Dimmu Borgir etc and many other metal drummers are far better than him."

Very glad you agree with me. There are so many better drummers out there. I also forgot to mention Faust and Tyrm formally from Emperor as well, but the list goes on.

I just never liked that kind of industrial metal, or whatever you call it, in fact I've never got into industrial music at all. I find the guitars to be horribly boring:(, and it's just no my cup of tea at all.

Kings of Leon.

At least I'm not the only one who doesn't like Mastodon. I also don't like any other bands on that list either.

I don't like any of these bands as well. As for Slayer I can take them or leave them. I only really liked both 'Show No Mercy' and 'Seasons in The Abyss' but thats it.

What utter nonsense. If you think it's all the same, I doubt you've listened to very man Black Metal bands at all.

Before they got big I really enjoyed their music, it was cool to like a band long before they went mainstream. But after seeing them live (absolutely awful, worse than bad), being played out and their subsequent ****ty album it has to be The Killers.

Good thread.

It's a brand of industrial Metal, called Neue Deutsche Härte, and Rammstein is a huge example of it

Thanks Denny.:) I actually can't stand Industrial Metal, although I really love 'Eternal' by Samael, although I'm sure if that album could be classed as Idustrial Metal as such. If it is classed as that then it's probably the only album from that genre that I really enjoy.:)

Tool - I could never see why there is so much hype.

Some of their songs go absolutely nowhere...and not very fast either. Danny Carey is the **** though and Lateralus owns
