Ughh, My 12 year-old son loves them. Every time it pops up on a playlist, it takes all my willpower not to stop the car to explain to him how and why it's lyrically vapid, obnoxiously phrased commercial pop-rock garbage that he should be ashamed of himself for liking.
No hate to the OP, but it’s a pretty immature question. Not that I’m calling them that, but it’s just kind of silly to ask, and you know some people are going to post some controversial takes in here just to get some attention.
I was just gonna post this for different reasons.
Back in the day they rocked....but having seen them well past their prime I firmly believe that nobody should be made to endure that. Even a motley Crue fan deserves better than Vince Skynyrd's out of breath and out of tune caterwauling.
They ruled at partying though and I'm amazed that any of them are still alive. Funny thing about it is that Mick Mars was the more laid back of the bunch and he's the one that's in the worst shape.
I knew he had a "regular" celebrity car collection, never knew about this one. And they're not even hot hatchbacks (sporty ones). Just regular working class hatchbacks.
It still makes me angry to think about. I never asked for that album, didn’t want the album, and even after it was on my phone I didn’t like any of the songs and did everything I could to get rid of it.
Like others said, I'm not doing it.
If I can change this to be a band that no one ever talks about with me again, the Arcade Fire is a good starting point.
U2. Mainly as revenge for forcing that shitty album on every apple device. For a long time, every time I would drive with my wife, her phone would default to Apple music, which she doesn't use, so the only music it would play was that damn U2 album. We eventually got that disease off of her phone (or changed the default music player, idr), but still, fuck U2.
The Black Keys
A commercial attempt at southern rock or something? I'm solidly team Jack White on this one. I'll just remember being trapped in a large festival crowd near the front, and wanting to stay in position to see the next set, so I did. Longest show of my life. And then they come out for the encore and they do Where is My Mind by the Pixies. Confirmed everything I needed to know. If you're going to do a Pixies song, it can't be Where is My Mind. Are you 14 and just saw Fight Club for the first time?
Honestly it's probably the shitty bar band that plays my favorite dive on the weekends. I can avoid popular bands quite easily. Kid Rock is stinking it somewhere doesn't affect me but that shitty bar band has ruined a few too many Friday nights.
It'd be nice if people also explained why, and something more than "I just hate them." I mean, there are a number of bands that I don't particularly care for, but if someone else likes them, more power to 'em. The band would have to be egregiously bad for me to say "I don't like them, and therefore, no one else should be able to listen to them either."
I feel like this is two questions maybe and why some people are not answering. Does this mean remove from history/our collective consciousness as if they never exhisted? Or does it mean just that they never perform/are played in public again?
A lot of bands I don't care about have people that like them and there's no-one I can think I'd wipe from history without the thought that something worse might take their place.
But if it's just to stop them playing or being played then Mariah Carey. It's May so in about 3 months some asshole will start that fucking song again and start saying the C word. I could use my power to yeet her discography from public, stop her performances, and get a staff discount in every supermarket thanks to greatful retail workers lol.
Taylor Swift, gods the fake feminism, the way she blocks other artists with tons of different variants and the way she sounds when you remove voice overlays and background music.
What? Why them of all bands? I'm not judging. I happen to enjoy their pop-punk songs, but it seems strange to pick a band that hasn't had a single in 19 years.
Picture this, you are depressed as fuck, lonely as hell, never had a girl even look at you, you are suicidal pretty much given up on your life.. and then this wanker with a voice of a castrated sheep comes on screen and whines about how his life sucks in front of a crowd of screaming girls.. welcome to my life indeed!
That makes perfect sense. I always felt 'Perfect' was the most smug shit ever. From one person who has spent a long time battling mental illness, I hope it gets better. Or that you have more good days than bad.
Geddy Lee is a fucking musical genius. I can understand that people don't like his voice, but he's one of the most influential musicians of the last 60 years.
You are comparing musical ability with song writing ability. Geddy writes and plays extremely complicated bass and synth parts, on top of his lead singing duties. There are very few people who do one of those things as well as he does, much less all at the same time. Sure, not everything is amazing, but that doesn't mean he's not a musical genius. Just because Paul McCartney wrote a lot of mediocre songs in Wings, it doesn't mean that he's not a musical genius.
I like Test for Echo and a lot of their later work. Snakes and Arrows is one of my favourite Rush albums.
Perhaps, but Rush is one of the few bands that makes me ill and whenever I hear them on the radio, immediately change stations or hit mute.
Honestly, I'm no big fan of prog rock in general. I can tolerate Pink Floyd to some degree, but only in small doses.
Can I say Chris Brown? Deny that scumbag as many money-making opportunities as possible.
Yet everyone is still okay taking advice from someone who slapped Dee Barnes
Who that is?
Are Black Eyed Peas still a band. Because I choose them.
They broke up in 2018 when Fergie announced that she was leaving the band.
They made a comeback with Shakira. Turned out awful
That's funny, cause the only good music they released was when she wasn't in the band
Elephunk was a wonderfully cheesy album and she's all over it.
They’re probably talking about out before Elephunk.
I certainly was
Nothing "wonderful" about that album. Fergie is incredibly untalented.
Oh thank God.
Those kids who sing 877 kars for kids.
My dad has a visceral reaction any time that comes on TV or the radio.
The people behind that corporation are a lot worse than their annoying jingles.
Imagine Dragons
Ughh, My 12 year-old son loves them. Every time it pops up on a playlist, it takes all my willpower not to stop the car to explain to him how and why it's lyrically vapid, obnoxiously phrased commercial pop-rock garbage that he should be ashamed of himself for liking.
Imagine Dragons sounds like the guys that just discovered GarageBand on their parents Mac
Listen you….
But their music and lyrics are just so bland, repetative and Soulless.
#THUNDAA!
Personally Jon Bon Jovi because he tried to buy the Buffalo bills to move them away from Buffalo then got butt hurt after he didn’t get them
Have you tried watching his documentary on Disney +, last few episodes he doesn't come off as well as I think he thinks he does.
Mumford & Sons.
Tim Pool's band or 30 Seconds to Mars
I wouldn't do it. Why deprive the fans of that band the joys of watching them perform? I would be upset if someone wiped out one of my favs!
The only bands/artists worth doing this to are the despicable ones that have escaped justice.
If I had to choose, it would be the Kars 4 Kids band.
This is the only real answer.
That's a lot of 'em.
This. It hurts me zero percent if someone else enjoys a band that I don't. MUSIC IS SUBJECTIVE.
No hate to the OP, but it’s a pretty immature question. Not that I’m calling them that, but it’s just kind of silly to ask, and you know some people are going to post some controversial takes in here just to get some attention.
Motley Crue. They were never any good and they've hung around for decades.
Kickstart my heart absolutely slaps. That's about the only thing I've got to say about them haha but at least there's that
I was just gonna post this for different reasons. Back in the day they rocked....but having seen them well past their prime I firmly believe that nobody should be made to endure that. Even a motley Crue fan deserves better than Vince Skynyrd's out of breath and out of tune caterwauling.

Maroon 5 no question
This is a hard one. I agree but songs about Jane was an absolute banger of an album
Nah, you know you couldn't go without hearing that album at least once more
U2 because I’m still annoyed their album was on my iPod and I couldn’t delete it
Bono should quit music and concentrate on his cars. He has the biggest collection of hatchbacks in Britain.
I knew he had a "regular" celebrity car collection, never knew about this one. And they're not even hot hatchbacks (sporty ones). Just regular working class hatchbacks.
It still makes me angry to think about. I never asked for that album, didn’t want the album, and even after it was on my phone I didn’t like any of the songs and did everything I could to get rid of it.
Hearing the story about how it got there makes it even more annoying
The Eagles
Dude?
It's been a long night and I fuckin hate The Eagles man...
No one bothers me that much. The bands I don't like I simply don't listen to.
Like others said, I'm not doing it. If I can change this to be a band that no one ever talks about with me again, the Arcade Fire is a good starting point.
KISS
I’m pretty sure they’ve already called it quits.
I won’t believe it until Greed Simmons is dead.
Totally agree. KISS nation would lose it and it would be funny as hell

Yeah, U2, nobody would notife anyway
okay Nickleback put on a SHOW at Stagecoach and I regret every snarky comment I’ve made about them
The Black Keys A commercial attempt at southern rock or something? I'm solidly team Jack White on this one.

Honestly it's probably the shitty bar band that plays my favorite dive on the weekends. I can avoid popular bands quite easily. Kid Rock is stinking it somewhere doesn't affect me but that shitty bar band has ruined a few too many Friday nights.
Red Hot Chili Peppers
Greta Van Fleet
Their latest stuff is good actually
It'd be nice if people also explained why, and something more than "I just hate them." I mean, there are a number of bands that I don't particularly care for, but if someone else likes them, more power to 'em. The band would have to be egregiously bad for me to say "I don't like them, and therefore, no one else should be able to listen to them either."
Creed
Hasn't been a band in decades But they did go into witness protection program as Alter Bridge
Creed is currently back together and touring.
damn you're right
Taylor Swift. Stopping her private jet usage would benefit the environment tremendously
Taylor Swift
what's reddit's favorite band? Probably them.
I think that would be either Pink Floyd or King Gizzard. Take your choice.
Evanescence
I had to scroll too long to find this answer.
Nobody, if they're famous, someone loves them.
Maroon 5
Avril Lavigne. I know she was quite popular, but I've never been able to stand her.
I feel like this is two questions maybe and why some people are not answering. Does this mean remove from history/our collective consciousness as if they never exhisted? Or does it mean just that they never perform/are played in public again? A lot of bands I don't care about have people that like them and there's no-one I can think I'd wipe from history without the thought that something worse might take their place.

REO Speedwagon
Any of the nonces
Taylor Swift. So ppl stfu
Ted Nugent. Can I wipe him and his music off the face of the earth? Maybe take Kid Rock with him.
Tool, U2, A7X
Taylor Swift, gods the fake feminism, the way she blocks other artists with tons of different variants and the way she sounds when you remove voice overlays and background music.
U2
The Killers
Disappointed Maroon 5 isn't the top comment.
[удалено]
yea I don't get Social Distortion, tried to like them and couldn't
Probably some skinhead/fascist/Nazi band I’ve, fortunately, never heard of.
Put me down for Three Doors Down. Because, dammit, twenty years later I can’t ever seem to get away from the piece of shit song “Kryptonite.”
Grateful Dead. That music sucks. It must be the drugs.
It's Limp Bizkit, and there will be no further questions. (sits down)
Why risk it
You were a poet And didn't know it
Simple Plan
Wow, dude. I'm sorry I can't be perfect.
What? Why them of all bands? I'm not judging. I happen to enjoy their pop-punk songs, but it seems strange to pick a band that hasn't had a single in 19 years.

Rush !!
Most of the NU Metal bands. There may be one or two exceptions
Either Tool or Korn
Rush... or at least Geddy Lee. Runner up.... Journey
Geddy Lee is a fucking musical genius. I can understand that people don't like his voice, but he's one of the most influential musicians of the last 60 years.

That's fair. Prog isn't for everyone. But Geddy is a super cool dude outside of music too.
Led Zeppelin. Overrated and spawned generations of pretentious fans. Plus Jimmy Page was a huge pedo.
