Re: Artists You Simply Cannot Stand

Nickelback took their name from the value of their music and the refund people would be asking for after hearing it.

I like Dave Matthews, but there are times he sounds like Adam Sandler when he sings.

As for artists I hate, the post grunge era (of which Matchbox Twenty is not even remotely a part of) pretty much sums it up.

I call this era, "Butt Rock," which can be defined as really grungy looking dudes singing love songs. Nothing like watching a music video that has a guy with 50 body piercings, tattoos, leather, boots, motorcycles, etc. , and he's singing an acoustic ballad.

I also can't stand the rap thing, if nothing else for the same reason as butt rock.

You have some guy dressed like he's in a street gang- gold teeth, wife beater, MLB hat off to the side, strutting around like he's a bad a**.

Yeah, when I think of intimidating people, I think of rappers. Wow, honey, be careful around that guy, he might break out into a rap! And he likes the Detroit Tigers- how frightening!!!
