Name ONE classic rock band that everyone loves but you secretly HATE
 
METALLICA. I can't stand ALL their loud crappy guitar driven screaming vocals music!!!

jannieC 07-26-2009 08:20 PM

Boston, and it's no secret.

TrueFaith77 07-26-2009 08:48 PM

Journey, and it's no secret.

hippilil86 07-26-2009 08:55 PM

Not really classic rock...but I HATE U2. Seriously.

I T A! They only sound good with Eno -- and even then they're a poor man's Echo & The Bunnymen, Simple Minds, etc.

SortaSavageLike 07-26-2009 09:29 PM

AC/DC.

Writing the same simplistic power-chord-driven male-posturing rock anthem set to I-just-ate-a-porcupine vocals for 35 years straight. :rolleyes:

Musicman408 07-26-2009 09:39 PM

I hate the Rolling Stones and..........







The Beatles



Never been a fan of their stuff!

However, on the plus side, I have realllly started getting into Def Leppard!!! Love them!!

The Beatles? You should be shot!:lol:

Musicman408 07-26-2009 09:46 PM

I am well aware that this is probably the boldest thing that I have ever said!!! ;)

Seriously though- their stuff is just too fluffy for me.... Just don't like it.

daniellaaarisen 07-26-2009 10:48 PM

I loathe Metallica. Not a fan of Boston and Journey (sans "Don't Stop Believin'" which I only like because its engrained in my generation to like it...).

markolas 07-26-2009 10:56 PM

Well, I don't like most classic rock bands, but if I had to pick one it would be the Beatles, just because it seems like high treason to say you don't like them.

I do like the Rolling Stones, tho.

Moz 07-26-2009 11:48 PM

AC/DC
Aerosmith
Metallica
:shocked:

LiamMcConville 07-27-2009 01:14 AM

Fleetwood Mac

LukeA 07-27-2009 01:40 AM

We're calling Metallica "Classic Rock" now? That's new to me.

The whole resurgence of Journey- particularly the obsession over "Don't Stop Believin"- I've found horrifying. I never thought there could be a song I'd despise as much as "I Will Survive", but thanks to the "OC", we have a new contender.

DavidMn 07-27-2009 05:36 AM

The Police. UGHH I absolutely cant stand them. Roxanne to me has to be one of the most unlistenable songs of all time.

mylittledemon 07-27-2009 05:37 AM

Mainly these groups:

Metallica
Stone Temple Pilots
Creed
Nirvana
KISS
Alice in Chains
Guns N Roses
Jane's Addiction


Now that's not to say I don't think that they all have some level of genius. I just don't care for them.

Yes!!!! I'm so with you... all their songs sound the same. Worst still I married a U2 fan... :(

EDIT: Oh yeah almost forgot - Coldplay, most annoying band ever!

Coldplay! So boring. I don't get their appeal at all.

Black_Moon 07-27-2009 04:48 PM

The Beatles. Bar a couple of songs, I find their music so boring. I'm aware that this probably makes me a bad person in the eyes of some. :lol:

FMlex 07-27-2009 05:33 PM

If my family ever sees this, I will be forever exiled but...

I don't like Led Zeppelin. :eek: I know!
And believe me, I've tried. I've tried soooo hard to like their music. But I just don't. Of course I like "Stairway to Heaven" but besides that and maybe one or two others, I don't like listening to them.

I can't get into all of their stuff. Couple of songs, maybe an album or two, but that's it.

None of which I would consider "Classic Rock" bands....well, MAYBE "KISS", but that's stretching it.


My "despiser-oonies":

Journey (once Steve Perry joined...they were pretty good before that)
Styx
Kansas
Boston
Chicago (especially after their 2nd album)
Foreigner (after album #4)

Ok...who mentioned "The Beatles"??? :mad: That's heretical, sacreligious and downright satanic!!! Be GONE with you, HEATHENS!!!!! "High Treason" is right...that's a lynch-worthy offense!!!

That Lindsey Buckingham, though, she sure is hot!



And I agree with the Journey nonfans out there. They don't do it for me.

I couldn't really think of any classic rock bands that i "HATE"...so I listed all the 90s bands the kids today are now calling "classic rock"...Although, I do have to say I never cared for Led Zeppelin either.

Villavic 07-27-2009 06:20 PM

Those metal bands, though I may like one song from then.

markolas 07-27-2009 06:34 PM

Yeah, I definitely don't think of Nirvana as "classic rock," but I never liked all that angsty '90s alternative **** - even when it was actually current. It's weird to me how '80s music is so popular now. I loved '80s music when I was in high school (1993-97), but back then it was *not* cool.

Yeah, but that Chris guy is hotter. Don't even compare them.

bucklind17 07-27-2009 07:41 PM

Pink Floyd. Just can't get into them at alllll.

jld92 07-27-2009 07:47 PM

AC/DC--My dad would die if he saw this but I just don't get what the fuss is about. All of their songs sound the same and it gets boring FAST!

Neil Young--Sorry but his voice is just not for me.

Kansas-- Can't get into it at all.

vivfox 07-27-2009 08:17 PM

How could I forget Rush. I effin' can't stand them and they've been around as long as Fleetwood Mac.

hs421139 07-27-2009 09:02 PM

The Police
The Rolling Stones

David 07-27-2009 10:35 PM

I hate Rush. Wow, do I hate Rush.

mylittledemon 07-27-2009 11:01 PM

Surprised at all the non Police fans.

BombaySapphire3 07-28-2009 03:22 AM

Coldplay is 'classic rock" WTF?:shrug:

BombaySapphire3 07-28-2009 03:26 AM

And since when did anyone have to loathe Journey in secret..?They have bene despised by critics and discerning music lovers openly for decades now.

Nah, I think the topic skewed a little to just bands you hate in general.

Steve Perry had one helluva voice though.
