Hoobastank : the TV keep playin` the "The Reason" single. One of the most anoyin` tracks of all time, really hurts my freakin` ears whenever I hear it

SUM 41, Good Charlotte, New Found Glory : nuff said , a special note on New Found Glory, THE VOCALIST SOUNDS LIKE A FREAKIN` KITTEN !!!!!!!

Busted :

The McFly :

Linkin Park :

Evanescence : I just don`t like them . . .

hahaha

I'll post my personal preference of current bands if a thread of favorite bands is created. This is the "hate" thread now.

What ? How could you ?

"Everybody Hurts" is one of the most inspiring songs of all time and will last through time as an all-time classic. "Losing My Religion", "What`s thhe Frequency Kenneth ?", dude I grew up with that. You`re breakin` my heart . . .

wtf dude, I should kick your ass! The 80's owned, all my best memories are accompanied by some tune from that era.....I got my first hand-job at a high school dance, just after a slow dance to Spandau Ballet's "True"! ...for real

ah, see I knew rony wouldn't let me down, hehe! ..anyhow, what bands are these, I didn't know there was such a thing these days? Are synthesizers back, have I been living under a rock?

they are an iggy pop wannabe band

i like the strokes but obviously it's much more enjoyable to listen to the likes of iggy pop, velvet underground, the stooges, mc5 (they almost played here ), television, cars and others.

anyway, i like their music but i just love to make fool of them... or something like that.

there's an article by joe hagan i posted months ago here i find it very good. he calls this current rock scene "pop neoconservativism". here's what he says about strokes:
"Their spiky haircuts and skinny ties are cut and pasted directly from the Cars, their guitar riffs from Television’s 1977 album, “Marquee Moon,” lead singer Julian Casablancas’s blah-blah-who-cares vocals from Debbie Harry and Lou Reed. (...) The whole thing sounds like it’s carved out of the same monotonous gray slab of Lower East Side attitude we hear on the historic recordings of Lou Reed. (...) If the Strokes are original in their way, it is by such a marginal degree as to be meaningless — except, of course, to kids in their late teens and early twenties who have never heard the source material and who are desperate to touch the hem of history if only for some sense of that old-time rock religion."

you can read the full article here: http://www.msnbc.com/news/981196.asp

by the way, there's a recent documentary called "kill your idols" which is very cool for rock fans. it's about rock in new york, from no wave (suicide, teeenage jesus & the jerks) to the new bands (strokes, yeah yeah yeahs -- the latter actually appear in the film).

it's funny as hell to watch things like thurston moore of sonic youth ironically talking about some party for the strokes sponsored by levi's or some other guy (i think it was arto lindsay but i may be wrong) saying he thinks rock is entering something like an interpretative stage. classical is all interpretative -- people interprets works by bach, beethoven, mozart, etc. -- and today jazz is very much interpretative -- records of people playing music by john coltrane, duke ellington, paul desmond, tom jobim, etc. are often released. now it's time for rock.

and karen o looks so dumb in the film...

try to watch it! i did it last week but i don't know if it was already released to the public.

actually, i might be wrong and then rony just hates bands such as spandau ballet. so let's wait rony's answer.

it's difficult to define a "80s style". we had such different artists (flock of seagulls, duran duran, madonna, michael Carlos*son, new order, depeche mode, the smiths, r.e.m....)

[Shindig]

Kasabian - Primal Scream without the talent.
The Ordinary Boys - If The Smiths were s**t, they'd have sounded like this.
Razorlight - Rip it Up? I'll rip you up in a minute, you ugly Swedish twonk.
The Departure - I just don't like the lead singers' voice. Or face. Or the band that supports him. It's like a second rate version of Interpol.
The Libertines - Stop playing up to this "We're best mates" image. We all know you hate each other. That's why Pete's gone solo.
Pete Doherty - Shove your ballads in your arm, mate.
'Punk' Bands - You're just whinging teenagers. Girls don't like Boys? They like cars and money? Judging by the teenage pregnancy rate, you're way off.
Linkin Park - Dunno what went wrong there....
Limp Bizkit - Let me stop you before you begin....
Maroon 5 - Coffee table band. Liked by girls and people in their mid-20's.
Sir Cliff Richard - Give it a rest, you strangely handsome man!
Evanescence - Christian Rock 101.
Eminem - Nah. Nah. Nah. Maybe when I was 16 but .... nah.

 

[Sir Calumn]

Any rap/R&B/Hip Hop bands like So Solid Crew, Wu Tang Clan (though the RZA is forgiven) etc...

Any soft dumbass kiddie rock bands like Busted, Good Charlotte, McFly etc...

Any wannabe punk gay-ass sh!te like Sum 41, Blink 182, Linkin Park, Greenday etc...

Cathedral cos they totally f*cked up the Him gig I went to...

Any of those sick f*cked up bands like Korn, Slipknot etc.

My sister is exhibit A in trendfollowing. Five years ago, when the Backstreet Boys, Nsync, and 98º were at the height of their powers, she was obsessed. She had all the CDs and had the pictures of Nick, Justin, and Nick on her bedroom wall. Now, in 2004, she is into Good Charlotte, Yellowcard, Simple Plan, Blink 182, Green Day, Linkin Park, Sum 41, and Hoobastank. Yes, she has all the CDs, and has even been to a couple of shows. She is now literally a bitch for corporate rock.
