I will go on record saying that I hate all of these new age artists that are entertainers first, and vocalists second. I am not a fan of Ed sheeran or Adele but I respect their work because they have the pipes to back it up! Can't say the same of the carousel pop-stars today.

A Pirate Looks At Forty is another good one.

Semi-True Story, That's What Livin is to Me, He went To Paris, Chanson Pour Le petits Enfants, Last Mango in Paris, Who's the blond stranger,.... There's a lot of good ones. Plus Come Monday too.

Rem is cool.
U2 not so much. Bullet the blue sky is good I suppose.
But yeah, start your political shit instead of entertaining me and I'm out.

Foo Fighters. Never liked em. They have some songs that I like a little bit of, but their formula for every damn song grinds my gears: "start off with good music and thoughtful lyrics...moving along...STOMP ON THE PEDAL AND SCREAM AND SCREAM TO LET EVERYONE KNOW HOW FULL OF ANGST WE ARE...back to good music before the next overbearing screaming"

Agreed. Have never owned a single Foo Fighters album. From the time the first album was released, I found the music highly formulaic and boring. Dave Grohl's lead singing does nothing for me. He's an amazing drummer and did a respectable job of providing some background vocals during Nirvana concerts, but I think he should of stuck with drumming and left the guitar and lead vocals to others.

He's one of the better live drummers I've seen and he did it with a very basic kit. For anyone who wants a taste of it, watch the Nirvana concert video of them playing the Paramount theater, Oct 31, 1991 in Seattle. Grohl absolutely owned that drum kit. His talent really stood out. The link has a playlist of most of the concert. Highly suggest it for anyone to see if they never have.

I think everything done by the Foo Fighters is utterly forgettable.

For the newer popular music crowd, I can't fucking stand Lorde. I have no clue what the mass public sees in her, but I think she's a no talent hack that is singing over an annoying electro pop bullshit.

Foo Fighters are ok, it's just their music gets repetitive.

Can't stand the majority of music today.

Rise Against is solid

Oh, and I don't know if Everclear are still around, but they fucking suck live. I used to like them until I heard them live on the radio and they were terrible. I gave them the benefit of the doubt and went to a show and they were horrendous there to. Haven't been able to stomach them since.

Was stunned to find out how hideous she was. Had assumed shed be mildly attractive. Liked the one single the first 400 times I heard it.

Black Keys, not talented enough to pull off the two man band.

Mumford and Sons are just terrible.

Radiohead outside of The Bends album, and a few singular songs, are extremely overrated, IMO.

I like REM but can't stand U2. Bono is such a pompous dick. I won tickets to a show in DC once and maybe 1/3 of their show was music, the other 2/3 was political bullshit.

I hear you. I don't like all that political bullshit. I don't need musicians or actors to fill me in on their political opinions. Just play your instrument and entertain me, bitch.

I respectfully, completely disagree with that post.

Bob Dylan is the shit.
Stones are the shit.
Zep rocks your face.
Pink Floyd is legendary.
Beatles are the greatest band ever.

The above-mentioned ARE ALL FUCKING LEGENDS, and need to be recognized as such.

I don't want to hear it, just nod yer damn heads and SHOW DICK SOME RESPECT!
