Artists You Simply Cannot Stand
 

I'm referring to a band, solo artist, or even a song - that when you hear them on the radio or any other media, it drives you nuts! You want to reach down and rip your radio out of the console of the car... you want to drive off the road and start taking out landmarks or livestock. :cool:

Some of mine?

Huey Lewis and the News - the whole repertoire, but Heart of Rock N Roll
Genesis - Tonight,Tonight,Tonight & Invisible Touch Arrrrrgh!
Bryan Adams - Summer of 69
Corey Hart - Sunglasses At Night (just heard this one)
McCartney & Wonder - Ebony and Ivory
Styx - Babe and Mr Roboto
Debbie Boone - You Light Up My Life

Just for starters

Oh boy, this could get interesting. I'll go with pretty much the entire post-grunge genre. Who would have though something worse than nu metal was to follow?

Creed
Hinder
Shinedown
Seether
3 Doors Down
Staind
Breaking Benjamin
Puddle of Mudd
Three Days Grace
Matchbox Twenty
Godsmack
Saliva
Buckcherry

And of course...

Nickelback

Re: Artists You Simply Cannot Stand
 

Nickelback tops my list followed closely by Panic at the Disco and Fall Out Boy

Re: Artists You Simply Cannot Stand
 

Panic at the Disco is a joke but I have to be honest--I kinda like Take This to Your Grave by Fall Out Boy. Anything after that and yes can't stand it...

Re: Artists You Simply Cannot Stand
 

Man! Am I old or what? I don't know of any of those bands!

Anyone ever hear of the Archies? :lol:

Others....

Little River Band
The Knack (they were the "next" Beatles...remember?)
Men At Work

Re: Artists You Simply Cannot Stand
 

You are the lucky one.

:laugh:

Re: Artists You Simply Cannot Stand
 

Fine Young Cannibals
Katy Perry

There's a lot I can't stand, but those two immediately came to mind.

Re: Artists You Simply Cannot Stand
 

Fleetwood Mac - My parents loved them, and tortured me from birth

The Dixie Chicks - Beginning with that stupid "Goodbye Earl" song, their voices are sandpaper for my soul, they even covered Stevie Nicks "Landslide" even worse

Pretty much all acts considered to be Adult Contemporary during the 80s and early 90s

Aretha Franklin your ego and your hat are too big, and you haven't had a hit song since I have been alive, but everyone insists that you are still the greatest. Sorry

Madonna- You are old, get off the stage

The Foo Fighters --- I don't know why I can't stand them, but I do.

Re: Artists You Simply Cannot Stand
 

Ouch. If this thread were Your Favorite Artists... your list would be mine with the exception of a few.

Re: Artists You Simply Cannot Stand
 

Nickelback. Hands down. I hate them with a passion. They suck.

Re: Artists You Simply Cannot Stand
 

Fiona Apple, Alanis Morrissette, and any other female belonging to the "One guy mistreated me so therefore all guys must be scum!" genre. I have to immediately change the station any time those two start to play.

Re: Artists You Simply Cannot Stand
 

I have a hard time coming up with artists that I loathe because they're just not on my mind. But I can truly say I hate Dave Matthews and I can trace it back to the very moment I first heard "Crash into me".

Post edit: I hate Madonna too, but not because she's old, but because she sucks and always has.

Re: Artists You Simply Cannot Stand
 

Because they are completely unoriginal? :dunno:

Re: Artists You Simply Cannot Stand
 

The only band that really bugs me when they come on the radio is Incubus. Can't stand his voice.

Re: Artists You Simply Cannot Stand
 

About the only one i cant stand is Coldplay. And alot of the newer Nickelback
