bands you don't like, but others do

Are there any bands that is seems everyone likes but you? We all have those bands that we just don't 'click' with for whatever reason. It might be the vocals rub us the wrong way, or any number of things.

For me the bands that most people seem to like, but I don't are:

Megadeth
Motorhead
ZZ Top


That's all I can think of right now.


How about you?

Foreigner

The Beatles (I abhor them).
Nickleback
Creed
Metallica (they're meh IMO except for the stuff with Mustaine).
70's Lynyrd Skynyrd (due to overkill).
Rancid
Green Day
Alice In Chains
Pearl Jam

Too many to list.

Def Leppard, Limp Bizkit, System of a Down, Kings X, Apocalyptica, for starters.

as ToB says... too many to list

like all bands


Iced Earth
KISS
Metallica
Dark Tranquillity
Pantera, uck
Hibria..what is the big deal here, seriously..
Kiuas..same as above... ("I only like tough music, my power metal is different and has extreme vocals! booya!")
Symphony X except for some of 'Paradise Lost' (yeah, it's more 'groovy', but I just don't think they did the straight up neoclassical stuff all that well.......)
Sonata Arctica besides like 2 albums
Nile besides like 2 albums
Queen *ducks rotten fruit*
BLS
Alestorm..this is a big ball of suck and it's irritating how so many of the fans think writing about pirates (badly) is now unique, etc


Anything that could be called deathcore
Finntroll, Eluveitie, and most bands that sound like either of those bands
Thrash with vocals that lean towards the tinny punk side (ruins Vio-lence, ruins older Dark Angel..sorry....I'm more about Sodom, CF, VR, etc)

yeah and I need to concur on Motorhead too... in principle, I sort of like the band, and logically I should, but too many songs just don't go *there*, and then the lyrics, zzzz, nothing is worse then Lemmy naughty lyrics...maybe old Pantera naughty lyrics..

Slipknot, System of a Down and Dragonforce

Given their image and my tastes, the most disappointing band I've ever heard is/was BLS. I just don't get them at all.

Only one that comes immediately to mind:

Dream Theater

Queen
Pantera
Guns N Roses
(Insert euro power metal band here)
Children of Bodom
Down
Rob Zombie (YEAH!)
Anything Zak Wylde has done (he's based a career on a harmonic squeal)
Slipknot
Early Napalm Death
Sarah MacLachlan (makes me want to cut off my own nuts to listen to her)

I prefer thinking about bands that I like

Any and all classic rock. Pretty boring stuff (and waaaaaay overplayed) as far as I'm concerned

some that come to mind:
Alice in Chains
Shinedown
Nickleback
Creed
System of a Down
Damageplan
Hell Yeah
Superjoint Ritual
Down
Stevie Ray Vaughn
K O R N
Saviour Machine
Ministry
Rammstein
Static-X
Nine Inch Nails
Nirvana
Pearl Jam
Soundgarden
