Love Song - 311. I don't hate the song at all. I love the cure. I just hate that my fav band got a hit of this song when they have released much better work.

Almost every track off of A Ghost is Born. I love Wilco so much, too. It's not a bad album, it just never clicked with me.

Tick - Yeah Yeah Yeahs.

Her voice drives me craaaazy. I wouldn't want to tell a person to listen to this song if they've never heard them before. :(
 
I do not like The Better of Two Evils by Marilyn Manson. I'm not sure what the deal is with the song, to be honest. There's a few songs on the album that are obviously supposed to be spoofs of more popular acts nowadays, but this one just doesn't work for me either way.
 
Pixies - Silver (The studio version sucks bad, but I havea bootleg demo of this song that is great)
Nirvana - You Know You're Right
Beatles - Within You Without You
White Stripes - Seven Nation Army. Especially live it sounds like crap with just the one guitar.

I like that song. Matter of fact, I just got the My Iron Lung single CD a few weeks ago and for a bunch of b-sides it's a damn fine fuckin cd....almost like a full album.

You, Lurgee and Blow Out aren't half bad. :/ But then again I don't like Fake Plastic Trees. *runs and hides*
 
This Is Not What You Had Planned - The Wrens

It's sooooo awful. I read the story behind it, and I think it's funny now, but...ick. Apparently the lead singer came home after a night of drinking preceded by a break up, sat down at a piano, and recorded this piece of crap while sauced. Why they put it on the Meadowlands, I'll never know.

PS - The Books

It's just laughing! So annoying.

Bad Religion - Man on a Mission
Rancid - Their Fifth album
Less than Jake - Dopeman(must just be overplayed from when I first heard it haha)
 

Jill Sandwich

the turds of Optimus Prime
Despite being their most sucessful album* I hate the Chili's Californication bar two songs (Scar Tissue and Road Trippin)

*could be By The Way now
 
Nonpoint's cover of "In the air tonight" by Phil Collins. Awesome band, ultra-gay song not worth covering. Even Nonpoint couldn't make it even the slightest bit cool.

"Cyberwaste" from Fear Factory.

I can't even consider that and GnR album. I pretend it never existed. :(

So Do I. So Do I.

However every time I hear that Symphony of the Devil on a radio station, I get pissed off again. Just leave that song to the Stones.

You made me cry. :(

I will instead nominate Bad Religion's "Raise Your Voice". One of the very few (less than five, maybe, out of hundreds) songs by my favorite band that I think is utterly awful.
 
I'd say most of the album St-Anger of Metallica.

There's good stuff in there: the last part of Frantic gets my heart pumpin(30 last seconds)...
Some of the lyrics have meaning that's not really understandable unless you saw that documentary.

I have to agree. I skip this every freaking time. It doesn't fit on the CD its on and it's awful even by itself.

Am I the only one who really liked Hail to the Thief? It's not really great, but I thought it was quite good all in all. :(

Hail to the Thief was their best album, bud.

Oh shit! Elitist music fans!

Come with me, if you want to live! *pelts fanboys with shotgun rounds*

Hail to the Thief is the album that made me fall out of love with one of the bands that got me really interested in music. :(

13th Step has a handful of tracks I just can't stand. Nurse being one of them. Crimes being another.

Sympathy for the Devil. Just FYI.

HttT just seemed too contrived to me. Maybe I haven't listened to it enough, but it hasn't grown on me at all the way OK Computer eventually did, and to the point where it became one of my favorite albums ever.
 
Little James (or somethin like that) by Oasis

Meat is Murder by the smiths......that song is freaky (possibly the only song I dislike by them)

...and some of the really early stuff by DM.

I wouldn't say it was their best, but I can't see how anyone who liked their previous albums could say they didn't like it. It's a perfect blend of The Bends, OKC, and Kid A.

I ain't got time to bleed. (No relevance, but what the fuck?)
Musically I found HttT to be closer to something like Kid A than OK Computer, and hardly anything like The Bends.

In terms of sound, HTTT is lodged somewhere in between OK Computer and Kid A with a little extra polish and a great political statement. That's why I love this album. And at times like these, sometimes that's what you need most above all else. Their sound was sufficent enough to carry on their message, especially for songs like 2+2=5, Sit Down Stand Up, Where I End and You Begin, Scatterbrain, etc.

You guys have to realize... every band maxes out at some point. Radiohead is a band that really started to work their asses off in 1994-1995 and exhausted themselves after Kid A. Besides, they have the ability to get good again, just give them a while (like at least three years). Or they could break up. It just depends on what the band wants to do. But I would be surprised if they did better than their timeless trio of The Bends, OK Computer and Kid A.

Radiohead's latest is pretty darn good but its still lacking compared to Bends/OKC/Kid A. Its not as bad as you claim it to be though...

Im only hard on it because its such a complete retread from what theyve been doing and I expect more from them than HTTT which if anything is nothing more than a safe album. Musically weaker and uninspired than anything on theire last 4 albums in my honest opinion and lyrically, well as lyrically unintelligble as usual. Too many of the songs seem like safe takeoffs of existing songs from the previous albums, some seeming like almost alternate takes of others. Like people say its a safe blend of Kid A/amnesiac/OK Computer, theyre happy with that, but thats my problem with it. I expect more from a band like them and if they continue forward (or backwards) like this, well its a shame. Right now theyve cornered themselves and I dont see them getting out of that corner for a while.

Whatever I like Amnesiac a lot so I guess my opinion doesnt really count anyways.
