    Creed

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

    And of course...

    Nickelback
    Wow, with exception to Matchbox Twenty and Nickelback these are some of the bands I listen to all the time. My two favorite bands, Pearl Jam and Foo Fighters, have been mentioned as others most hated. Is funny how each person has a different taste in music.

    AC/DC. I like Thunderstruck and that's it. I pretty much despise every other song they sing. They all sound the same. That guy's voice is more annoying than someone scratching their nails on a chalkboard.

    I think Incubus could be great if they had a different singer. I like their music but he holds them back in a big way. Bad voice.

    And let me throw out another shoutout for Nickelback. Worst band of the millenium.

    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!!!

    Songs that don't involve Satan or elves are not metal. :

    I can't stand

    Led Zeppelin
    Jimmy Hendrix
    Nickelback
    Gangsta Rap
    Pink Floyd

    Not a big fan of classic rock. I am warming up to it a little bit but not much.

    You saved me some typing. The ones in bold make me want to jump off a ledge. The only reason I don't agree on the rest of the ones you listed is because I wouldn't know who they were if they were playing in my backyard.

    Oh, and Nickelback is an abomination. A pox on them.

    It's not that I don't like the Doors, it's that I've come to the conclusion that they are overrated.

    Ryan Adams and the Cardinals. I just don't get it.
    I've been to dinner at Jimmy Buffet's house, and I've eaten it at a homeless shelter. And there's great joy and harrowing terror to be found in both places.

    I saw a sculpture exhibition by Cy Twombly in the National Museum in DC in 2000.

    It's criminal that (1) that crap was in the National Museum, and (2) I can't ever get that 20 minutes of my life back.
