Bands that are hugely popular that you can't stomach?

[RMD]

For me it's hands down U2. Yours?

[Clams]

It would take too long.

[Tequila Cowboy]

It would take too long.

Clams has now become the master of the quick one liner answer. I think because it's harder to blame him then.

Anyway...

Are the Eagles too easy an answer?

[RolanK]

Pink Floyd

[RMD]

Funny, as Pink Floyd and the Eagles would also make my list. Just not as high as U2.

[Bill in CT]

Mine is Dave Matthews Band. Ugh...don't get me started.

[Tyler]

Radiohead - the vocals just 100% kill it for me.

Honestly if Thom Yorke would just mute his microphone, I'd probably like a lot of it (I'm a big Mogwai fan, for instance)

[Duke Silver]

Mumford and Sons

[LuthierJustin]

Nirvana
Any of those generic rock bands that still try to sound like Nirvana
Train

[Erdlivz]

I'll have to echo U2, Eagles and Radiohead and add Coldplay and Green Day.

[Erdlivz]

Sublime. They weren't hugely popular (maybe a bit) but definitely drive me nucking futs.

[dogstar]

COLDPLAY

What is the point of that band?

[LuthierJustin]

Coldplay is a "rock" band for non music fans, they stopped bothering me a long time ago, I reuse to acknowledge they exist

[Penny Lane]

this is the deja vu thread..

Talking Heads (I'm ducking now..)

[beantownbubba]

Another vote for Coldplay. And the Eagles, but yeah, i think that's too easy.

[Zip City]

Rush

[beantownbubba]

After just seeing Dogstar call Kraftwerk the most important band since the Beatles, I had to come back and add them here. And while I'm at it, why shouldn't Depeche Mode and Duran Duran get their turns as the pinata?

[RolanK]

Def Leppard
Queen

[LuthierJustin]

Springsteen

You and me outside now

Springfield

How could you pass up that genuine smile.

Or in January, after a coupla sazeracs

Kraftwerk are very important to popular and electronic music, not western blues based music. Many of the people around here only like western blues based music.

[RolanK]

Oasis

[LuthierJustin]

Slipknot

You can recognize the importance of a musician and still dislike listening to them

[Bill in CT]

Mumford and Sons

Agreed. I saw them on the first day of last year's Bridge School Benefit. They were so boring and average that I skipped them on Sunday.

[LuthierJustin]

All the bands that are popular right now and won't be remembered in 6 weeks, just like the bands who were popular 6 weeks ago but are long forgotten and the ones 6 weeks before that and so one....

Not really if you don't listen to that type of music
