So, we all hate certain bands. I'm sure there are moments when you're listening to the radio and an artist comes on who you detest.
So get it off your chest here. Why do they annoy you so much? What would you like to do with them?
My current pet hate:
Scissor Sisters
Gah! From the moment I heard the screeching wails of the very bad Pink Floyd cover, I knew this band would make my ears bleed. Sounding like a cross between the Beegees with something shoved up their rear ends and Elton John at his worst, they make cats sound good.
But it's not just their music. The fact that they play the gay card with so much (gay?) abandon is annoying. Fine, so they're gay, get over it. They end up coming across like some supporting cast for a Carry On film.

I hate them as well.
But at the moment, I hate how all music critics seem to go for anyone who is 'different' without actually having any real talent, or even being different to their last prefered artist who was 'different'.
Said band, then automatically goes to #1, and the emos get very upset by how mainstream they have become.

Music wise any band / artist that releases a "new" song that sounds just like one of their previous singles. Blue springs to mind here.
And personality / attitude wise Lee Ryan from Blue is a complete idiot - he needs something stuffed in his mouth to stop him opening it and coming out with such rubbish.

Agreed, any more?
Red Hot Chilli Peppers- Their new singles both suck. I won't be buying stadium arcadium.

Sorry bout that, but just saying that name is enough. Seen them live twice, not of my own choice mind you, but when i did see them, it was like listening to two pigs in breeding season. The guy was awful and sounded nothing like he does on his album, plus you couldnt see who was singing with that hat, why cant he just take the thing off you honestly have no clue who is singing.
Catchy tunes yes, i just hate the style of the band.

The Arctic Monkeys. I have one question: How are they so popular, when they are simply so awful? I'll admit that some of their songs have a decent amount of energy put into them, but the music is just so awful, and the lyrics make me cringe... they are quite simply a p*ss poor pub band who've become somehow popular on the gimmick that they're from Sheffield, and have a guy with a Northern accent on vocals... big deal, Bruce Dickinson's from Sheffield; the difference is, he can actually sing and write; same goes (to an extent) to fellow Sheffield natives Def Leppard, i.e. before they went so very pop.
The Kooks. Pathetic, bland, poorly written pop-rock (With emphasis on the "Pop") with the spirit of a ninety-year old sloth. Some of the least inspired total gibberish I've ever had the displeasure to hear; to me, it seems as if people only listen to them on the theory "They're so bad, they're good", normally applied to joke bands... and the Kooks are a pathetic joke.
Fightstar. I had the displeasure of witnessing them at the Reading Festival... there is nothing good whatsoever about them, call them "Post-grunge" or whatever, it's poorly arranged gibberish performed by people who don't know what they're doing, especially the front-boy who seems to think he's James Hetfield, but comes accross as being clueless. And he looks like a gay Chav.
Good Charlotte. Absolute rubbish in almost every imaginable way, and their illusion that they are punks makes you want to vomit... no self-respecting punk band would pump out such infantile gibberish. They make me want to vomit, fortunately I haven't heard anyone even mention them recently.
Limp Bizkit. The musical equivalent of raw sewerage. It's not big, it's not clever, and definitely not worth listening to, enough said.
Just about any "Emo" band. No need forfurther explanation. It's a stupid term, as almost all decent rock has a lot of emotion pumped into it... Put together some incompetent musicians and some guy who screams out of tune in a failed attempt at angsty music or simply comes up with lyrics about how pathetic they are, and there you go. It's the audible equivalent of a cholostromy bag.
And as an afterword... much of Guns 'N' Roses' output is ruined by Axl Rose's irritating voice. And don't get me started on pop, (C)rap etc.

Groups that sample classic songs and bastardise them - e.g. that Jamelia bint sampling the Depeche Mode classic "Personal Jesus", and obviously butchering it.
