Top 50 Worst Bands Of All Time

I just think it's a disgrace that the mighty Skinny Puppy are in there with all the dull AOR, Prog Rock and teenybop nonsense. This band were genuinely influential, experimental, and totally unique. The Blender editor or whoever compiled that list must have something against them.

Cant be arsed to do 50 of em, but here are some of my least favourite bands of all-time, in no particular order:

* The White Stripes * Jamiroquai * Fat Les * Blur * Hue & Cry * Slipknot * Westlife * Peter Gabriel (not techically a band, I know, but I just hate him) * Nirvana * Black Lace

Here are some good bands:

* New Order * Pet Shop Boys * Cuban Boys * Matchbox Twenty * U96 * The Spice Girls * Cast * Depeche Mode * Aerosmith * The Mission

Almost all eighties German HM/Trash bands were futile. Can you remember Grave Digger, Sinner, Deathrow etc...Endless list. Canadian band Anvil (still recording?) was really bad.

Progesaurus like ELP is unbearable

A good few of the bands in that list shouldn't be there. I can think of a few other that aren't there and should be, though:

1. All boy bands
2. The Strokes (biggest try-hards around right now)
3. Yeah Yeah Yeahs (bunch of fakers - Karen O's got a stylist, for God's sake!)
4. The Vines (jumped-up Nirvana wannabes. And could someone please shoot Craig Nicholls in the head? He's a total psycho!)

I really hate Rammnstein, Genesis and Meat Loaf (not a band, but completely awful).

Some bands that should definetly be on there: Slipknot Creed Any boy "band" from the late '90s Spice girls Bruce Springsteen and the e-street band, although everyone in Jersey would disagree with me. Motley Crue Pearl Jam Avril Lavigne Fanny Pack Wu Tang clan The strokes Phish The white stripes

I could go on and on. Someone did mention Nirvana, and while I think they are absolutely dull and never understood why they overshadowed Smashing Pumpkins in the early '90s when SP's Gish was far superior to Nevermind, they shouldn't be on the list.

I agree with you that the Pumpkins are superior to Nirvana, but what's the problem with the White Stripes; I did hate their last album, but Elephant is a great album.

What would be the point of putting manufactured boy bands in this list? Everyone knows most of their output isn't even relevant to serious music listeners. This way we see the REAL crimes again music by those who should have known better.

And to put the Strokes in your list is plain foolish, they write good, dirty, pop songs.
