The Worst Band/Artist Ever

Christ, innocent days there.

I choose b4-4. Everybody download "Get Down" and you will realize that it is the worst song ever made.

However, when people like Big Brovaz or Blazing Squad or Mel B exist, it's so difficult to pick only one.

And whoever said The Pogues up there is just wrong on so many levels.

also: Boyzone

i have a certain hatred for Geri Halliwell mainly because she is such an odious, supremely irritating person, but her records, even by today's manufactured-pop standards are really quite atrotious.

i also have an aversion, actually it's more akin to a phobia for Mariah Carey's singing. Especially in that video for "Without Me" - all that phoney emoting, all that "look at me! i'm so emotional!". Urghhh!!

Careful, if you say it one more time, you know what'll happen...?

Not actually sure if these are the worst bands ever but all 3 make me feel physically sick...

Queen - I just don't get it. I mean Radio Gaga is passable (mainly 'cos of Moroder). Other than that their fusion of opera and rock reminds me of the weird kid in school trying to make the hamster and the tortoise mate by pushing them together. Ditto the chilli peppers 'funk rock' while we're on the subject. I like funk and rock but fusing them is incredibly.

Bare Naked Ladies - Just wrong on so many levels. Over sincere vocal - check. Quirky lyrics - check. Clean production - check. Sort of band that gets idolised by dim lads who think this is smart.

Black Eyed Peas - How did they go from Jurassic Five style also rans to this? You've said it all before. My Humps? Least sexy song ever.

Celine Dion - I was so rude once to someone who liked them he never talked to me again. Why is it though that their biggest fans that I meet seem to be corporate drones who in person are inoffensive but you just know at work they have one of those jobs that through an Excel spreadsheet fucks over the lives of millions in third world countries. they never see.

...that was a bit of a rant wasn't it?

UB40 dammit.

Wheatus maybe?

pete yorn

Momus

Sandi Thom.

Bob Pfeifer

Talk about bile. Now I want to hear it just to see what the shouting is all about!

The bands listed in the top 15 current threads qualify as most of my nominees.

Colorado Springs CO must have a really supportive scene

Moby

LOL Wheatus

That Billy Zoom quote about Woodstock/Ramones means he's it-the worst artist ever.

one republic, surely?

The Killers for me at the moment. Off goes the radio when they come on.

Whoa -- what did Billy Zoom say about the Ramones?

I feel like Jeff Buckley deserves at least one mention here, so he doesn't feel left out. (Not saying he's necessarily the worst musical artist ever, but he's worse than anybody else I just saw nominated during a quick skim of the thread.)

This from a man who owns several Teen Marie albums.

Hey, I just own one. (And that's one more than I own of Jeff's.)

Zoom apparently said all music between Woodstock and the Ramones was shit. Those happen to be my favorite years in all of music.

Yeah, that's a bit of an ridiculous generatlization. And Billy Zoom is a creepy Christian zealot, but still --- he's Billy Zoom. He wrote the riff to "Hungry Wolf." I'll let it slide.

Teena Marie should be slapped with a fish.

Teena Marie's too irrelevant to be the worst anything.

What? "Behind The Groove" is amazing!

The Killers?!?!?!?1 come on

LEAVE IT JAKE

Teena Marie's too irrelevant to be the worst anything.

Well that's the case with just about anything shitty, innit ain't it?

I was just reading the GG Allin thread and although the word "worst" when referring to Allin is just a few shades deeper than it is when referring to Teena Marie, you could say the same thing about GG Allin.

Anyone who really sucks is gonna be so cult that they are a priori irrelevant; anyone popular enough to be relevant has a large group ready and willing to explicate why they didn't, after all, suck that much.

Therefore, nobody sucks, or at least, nobody sucks the most.

Interesting theory. I have no idea what you're talking about.
