Bands you hate that everyone else loves

Well, in a way it did affect me too, I hated hearing that about them being the greatest, but I got over it, it doesn't bother me putting things in proper perspective, and I can why they were called that. Before I got into The Beatles I liked banRAB like The Rolling Stones and Yes, and I know a lot of people who don't like them for various reasons. But instead of comparing them to Yes, I took them for who they were, and hear a lot of interesting stuff in their music. Plus by being a Steve Howe fan I got into music he liked and learn a lot from that. I consider Les Paul the one who started the music revolution, and his acheivements were greater then The Beatles and the banRAB that followed.

I guess by not putting The Beatels in the proper place in RnR history and judging them with other band further down the RnR timeline, it's easy to scoff at them.
 
Im not saying they ripped off each other, Lordi are nothing like Slipknot & I dont even know who the f*ck Mushroomhead is lol



Eminem sucks man, have always hated him. I actually got dragged to the ****ty 8 mile movie he put out years ago. It was a painful experience to say the least.

Yeah I compare Lordi & Slipknot due to the stupid & totally unnescessary (IMO) masks that they wear in some sort of vain attempt to elevate their music above the level of complete and utter bollocks.
 
But they're so good! and George is a great guitarist, Lennon/McCartney were THE BEST songwriters ever and Ringo is such an underrated drummer and they are so innovative and they made such great music thirty years before anyone else thought of the idea of having a guitar and a bass and a drum set all together.
 
I know quite a bit of people who know all these artists and still prefer The Beatles, I'm one of them. Stop acting like it's wrong.



For someone who claims to have listened to over 1001 albums, you know alarmingly little about music.
 
Yeah. I can certainly understand the hate for The Stones.

But as much as I rant about them, I still like them to an extent. I think Sticky Fingers is a fantastic album, Beggars and Let it Bleed too.

But I never got the hype over Exile, that's the one everyone calls their magnum opus but I always found it boring and middle of the road boogie rock.

I hated the direction they took with Exile and they pretty much lost me with everything since. Save a few greats like Angie and Beast of Burden.
 
oh right my bad, not sure why I thought that :usehead:. Though on this board there was an 80% chance i'd have been right :p:

I'd go there if someone paid for the flight though, plenty of reasons to go, could drop in on sweet_nothing and listen to some BLUR
 
RHCP
Nickelback
Jonas Brothers
Rihanna
Pussycat Dolls
Lil' Wayne
Miley Cyrus
U2
.....so many more.



For U2, I liked them up until a few years ago. I just can't stand their music now, I really can't. I also don't see the big deal with The Unforgettable Fire (song). I've seen it on a few lists of top songs and I don't understand why this song is so great. It's probably one of my most hated U2 songs.
 
Gee this ones piss easy! Beatles, Rolling Stones, U2, Snow Patrol, Elvis Costello, Elvis, Weezer, Oasis, Kings of Leon, Kaiser Chiefs, Linkin Park, Sex Pistols, Nirvana, Nickelback,Keane, The Enemy, Paul Mccartney/Wings, Coldplay......
 
While they both had some amount of influence of metal I'm not sure I'd call either metal.

Slipknot and Mushroom Head don't look anything alike.
 
I have a funny relationship with music I hate. If I really actively dislike something I invariably start to be drawn to it because I start to wonder why I hate it so much. Ironically this process usually culminates with becoming so intrigued that I buy or download something by the artist in question and wind up really getting into it. Honestly, this has happened to me quite a few times.

What it boils down to I think is that I like music that makes me feel something and even if music makes me feel a strong sense of loathing toward it, it's still having an impact on me. So, strangely enough, I think the music I like the least isn't stuff I hate but in fact stuff that I'm arabivalent about, stuff so bland that it fails to impact me, even negatively.
