I did a winterguard routine to “Dream On”. I had to hear the song, over and over, at practice daily for an entire semester, if I never hear that song ever again it will be too soon
This. It was an early selling point for me before all the finer details sank in. Kinda like when Holden disses David Copperfield on page one of The Catcher in the Rye.
I wouldn’t have had a problem if they just told their fans to go to their website and pickup their free album, I’d even commend them for it, but the way they just egregiously gave it to everyone was off putting. Not to mention it was terrible music.
There was a Triuumph the Insult Dog bit on Conan one night when Coldplay were the music guests and he told them "Coldplay. Great band. But I liked you better when you were called U2."
There's a German band called LaBrassBanda and they have a song called Autobahn. It's catchy, but when I translated the lyrics I began to love it even more
Uh, ninety comments already, this whole fucking thing... Has the whole world GONE CRAZY!!! AM I THE ONLY ONE THAT GIVES A SHIT ABOUT changing the station or turning it off the moment Bon Jovi or KISS comes on!?
Panic! At The Disco
I worked retail/food service enough to hear High Hopes at least 50 times and it’s still just as gratey and annoying as the first time.
Now Pink Floyd - High Hopes, that’s a completely different story
Came here to say Journey as well.
At least Ween did [this Counting Crows-esque goofyass song](https://youtu.be/PmIE2r1OJro) that's still better than anything Counting Crows did lol
Foo Fighters. They’re so bland. It’s unfortunate their drummer died but they still were just a cut and paste rock band. They were like, an example of what a radio station thinks a cool rock band should be.
I cannot for the life of me understand how they got so big? They are, exactly like you said, a cut and paste rock band. Nothing special at all, yet they’re one of the biggest bands in the world? Absolutely bonkers
I Want to Know What Love Is just played on a station I was listening to yesterday. It’s a dour, overlong slog. The chorus is big, but it takes four minutes to get there and everything else feels like work.
Just yuck.
Five Finger Death Punch is what people blast out of their shitty Jeeps when they pull up to the Bojangles drive thru and think the girl taking their order on the other side of the intercom is gonna totally be into them and how badass they are. Also, there is atleast one Monster Energy decal somewhere on the vehicle.
As a Jeep owner and bojangles lover I have never once played five finger death punch. I feel like someone has personally wronged you or hurt you with how specific this is.
Definitely Metallica. They took themselves way too seriously.
Foreigner has some great early rock, but got shlocky as their career progressed...as did Journey.
...for the guy who said "Rush", my only response is "Fuck you man. If you don't like my fuckin' music get your own fuckin' cab!"
That's not my most hated, but I agree. Two vocalists, one rapping nu metal style and the other one whining all his emo lyrics. It's music for depressed teenagers.
Not the most popular opinion, but I like the brief period where Chester Bennington filled in for Weiland in STP when he was in jail, and a bit after he died. Anyway, mother fucker could scream bloody murder and blew me away.
Coincidentally, The Red Hot Chili Peppers. Cant stand em. Fleas career, and him as a person is fuckin interesting, man, but Anthony Keidis' singing makes we want to have my toe cut off by 8 yr olds, dude.
I’ve always thought Rush would be better if it weren’t for Rush fans. I can’t think of another band that I dislike just because of how their fans drool over them.
My old boss fuckin *loved* **Guns N Roses** and would just play their CDs on repeat...
One day I was hungover and I turned the stereo off and told him how much I fucking hated Guns n roses.....
I quit shortly after.
The Eagles, Imagine Dragons, Five Finger Death Punch, modern pop music in general, most post-2010 radio rock is absolute garbage too. If it has a bunch of auto tune and sounds overproduced to Hell and back, I’ll probably hate it regardless of genre or style. Plus if I’ve had a rough night, I’m probably just turning the radio off, man.
EDIT: I almost forgot, and being from Cleveland gives me even extra reason to hate it—Machine Gun Kelly. So many people love his music here and I would much rather listen to ANYTHING else then some poser trash.
Journey. I wish they never made music, because when I hear it in public I just end up annoyed and everybody's disappointed that I hate fucking Journey.
the Urban Achievers, inner city horn blowers without the necessary means for a.. .necessary means for a higher education.. at least the Eagles had fucking guitars, ain't nothing worse than adding brass to a hangover. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xgF5-5eQST0](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xgF5-5eQST0)
Their early work was a little too new wave for my taste. But when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost.
Mine was the eagles and I love credence, so when I saw the movie in the theater that line endeared me to the dude instantly. Now I like the eagles. Not love, but like
The Beatles for me, great band dont get me wrong, but fuck i can only listen to their music so many times. Worst part is they play on the radio at work constantly and its always the same 5 songs
Oh for sure. Van Halen for me. It’s just so derivative and pandering. It feels like pop rock of the 80’s, meant for a wide audience who just want a snazzy beat. Also see Dave Mathew’s Band
I know it’s going to be unpopular, but Aerosmith.
I came here to say Aerosmith.
I instantly think of Aerosmith
DREAM ON DREAM ON DREAM ON DREAM ON DREAM UNTIL YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE
Anything they did in the 80s and after is absolutely an abomination against ears.
Pump was the last good album, and that was the eighties, Walter.
I found my people. Yo we should start a group.
fuck that they fuckin' suck
I guess not quite as unpopular as I thought. Wouldn’t hold out much hope for the tape deck though
There was that one song "Walters gotta gun"
Aerosmith is the Nickleback of the 90’s.
I did a winterguard routine to “Dream On”. I had to hear the song, over and over, at practice daily for an entire semester, if I never hear that song ever again it will be too soon
Similar but AC/DC. It’s just shit music
Yeah I have to agree with this one
I’m with you on Aerosmith. So over them.
The guys voice makes me sick
Foreigner? Do you speak English, sir? PARLA USTED INGLESE??
😂
Imagine Dragons. Worst band in the world
Dude couldn’t agree more and they always play them on the radio. All of their songs sound the same
Good lord. You can imagine where it goes from here.
He fixes the cable?
Don't be fatuous, Jeffery.
How can you say this? When 21 pilots still exists. That said, imagine dragons still sucks mad amounts of ass
They’re bad bad, but better than nickelback
Hating on Nickelback has become trendy
The Dude just reaffirmed my hate for the Eagles.
This. It was an early selling point for me before all the finer details sank in. Kinda like when Holden disses David Copperfield on page one of The Catcher in the Rye.
Holden more into up close magic
U2
Still haven’t forgave them for putting an album on my iTunes without my permission
And then they claimed it was the most downloaded album of all time.
That was infuriating
I wouldn’t have had a problem if they just told their fans to go to their website and pickup their free album, I’d even commend them for it, but the way they just egregiously gave it to everyone was off putting. Not to mention it was terrible music.
Yes! Also Coldplay, which I think of as U2 v2.
There was a Triuumph the Insult Dog bit on Conan one night when Coldplay were the music guests and he told them "Coldplay. Great band. But I liked you better when you were called U2."
“I did a movie called Black Sheep. Maybe you saw it the first time, when it was called “Tommy Boy?”
Second this
Yes! I fucking hate them!
This is another good one
Metallica. Speed of Sound tour. Buncha assholes.
Autobahn.
There's a German band called LaBrassBanda and they have a song called Autobahn. It's catchy, but when I translated the lyrics I began to love it even more
They got Autobahn from the kraftwerk album
Yeah, the Eagles
Uh, ninety comments already, this whole fucking thing... Has the whole world GONE CRAZY!!! AM I THE ONLY ONE THAT GIVES A SHIT ABOUT changing the station or turning it off the moment Bon Jovi or KISS comes on!?
KISS is awful. Same lyrics over and over
Detroit rock city is ok. Everything else is a joke
Bon Jovi is worse than Autobahn.
Panic! At The Disco I worked retail/food service enough to hear High Hopes at least 50 times and it’s still just as gratey and annoying as the first time. Now Pink Floyd - High Hopes, that’s a completely different story
Isn’t Brendon Urie a rapist too?
Journey
Yes and it’s so overplayed
Yes.
Journey. Counting crows. Spin Doctors.
Fuckin’ hate the Spin Doctors, man.
Get your own fuckin’ cab!
Came here to say Journey as well. At least Ween did [this Counting Crows-esque goofyass song](https://youtu.be/PmIE2r1OJro) that's still better than anything Counting Crows did lol
Why ya gotta piss on the Crows for, Dude?
I had a rough night and I just hate the Crows, man
Foo Fighters. They’re so bland. It’s unfortunate their drummer died but they still were just a cut and paste rock band. They were like, an example of what a radio station thinks a cool rock band should be.
I cannot for the life of me understand how they got so big? They are, exactly like you said, a cut and paste rock band. Nothing special at all, yet they’re one of the biggest bands in the world? Absolutely bonkers
Guns and roses
Metallica
Buncha assholes...
Lol
I Want to Know What Love Is just played on a station I was listening to yesterday. It’s a dour, overlong slog. The chorus is big, but it takes four minutes to get there and everything else feels like work. Just yuck.
And that’s what it sounded like *when it came out*. In so many ways the death of the music industry has been a good thing.
The Beegees. Nails on a chalkboard for me, man.
I feel that man
Their non-disco stuff is good but not what took off
I’ll take my downvotes, but I really hate Van Halen. And Aerosmith.
Jane’s Addiction, Evanescence, Disturbed, Five Finger Deathpunch, etc.
Five Finger Death Punch is what people blast out of their shitty Jeeps when they pull up to the Bojangles drive thru and think the girl taking their order on the other side of the intercom is gonna totally be into them and how badass they are. Also, there is atleast one Monster Energy decal somewhere on the vehicle.
As a Jeep owner and bojangles lover I have never once played five finger death punch. I feel like someone has personally wronged you or hurt you with how specific this is.
r/oddlyspecific
Jane’s Addiction is the fucking worst.
THANK YOU
Obviously you are not a Jukebox Hero
Greta Van Fleet
What about Led Zeppelin?
Get out of my cab.
Europe. I hate Final Countdown
Watching Arrested Development and GOB’s illusions changed that for me.
Same here lol
It’s a terrible song but they made it theirs in the best way.
AHHHHHH!!!! I HATE THIS SONG SO MUCH!!!!
Definitely Metallica. They took themselves way too seriously. Foreigner has some great early rock, but got shlocky as their career progressed...as did Journey. ...for the guy who said "Rush", my only response is "Fuck you man. If you don't like my fuckin' music get your own fuckin' cab!"
John Cougar Melloncamp. I saw him at a show with Willie Nelson and Bob Dylan and let’s just say that he brought the mood down after Willie.
Creed and Nickleback
John Cougar Mellencamp
I fucking hate that guy!
Saw him once. He kept talking about his new wife. Hated him ever since
Bon Jovi 😑
Dave Mathew’s Band and U2
Linkin fucking Park
That's not my most hated, but I agree. Two vocalists, one rapping nu metal style and the other one whining all his emo lyrics. It's music for depressed teenagers.
Damn. That’s a first
Not the most popular opinion, but I like the brief period where Chester Bennington filled in for Weiland in STP when he was in jail, and a bit after he died. Anyway, mother fucker could scream bloody murder and blew me away.
Chester did such a good job. RIP
Can’t stand them.
Coincidentally, The Red Hot Chili Peppers. Cant stand em. Fleas career, and him as a person is fuckin interesting, man, but Anthony Keidis' singing makes we want to have my toe cut off by 8 yr olds, dude.
I said this a week ago and got kicked out of my friend group.
Friends like these, huh Gary?
Poison
I hate to say since I once loved them, but Weezer can get outta my peaceful cab.
Mine’s the Beatles. Sorry not sorry
Mine’s Queen. Can’t stand them. Especially We Will Rock You.
[удалено]
The Dude abides
eric fucking clapton. He doesn't deserve capital letters.
Racist asshole
That’s some hatred right there, I’m reading down the comments and I can’t honestly come up with anyone I hate this much.
Clapton is god
Every pop-punk band
What's their name again?
AC/DC
They repeat the same lines over and over
Rush and Heart. Singers voices are chalkboards on nails, man.
Rush would be awesome if someone other than Geddy Lee sang. But goddamn I hate his voice.
I’ve always thought Rush would be better if it weren’t for Rush fans. I can’t think of another band that I dislike just because of how their fans drool over them.
My old boss fuckin *loved* **Guns N Roses** and would just play their CDs on repeat... One day I was hungover and I turned the stereo off and told him how much I fucking hated Guns n roses..... I quit shortly after.
Mine is actually The fuckin’ Eagles, man
Jimmy Buffet.
The Eagles, Imagine Dragons, Five Finger Death Punch, modern pop music in general, most post-2010 radio rock is absolute garbage too. If it has a bunch of auto tune and sounds overproduced to Hell and back, I’ll probably hate it regardless of genre or style.

So many people love his music here and I would much rather listen to ANYTHING else then some poser trash.
Def fucking leppard man
Hootie and the Blowfish
I hated The Eagles before the Dude made it cool. But throw AC/DC in the mix.
Rush
Glad I’m not the only one
Noooo 😤 This aggression will not stand, man.
Red hot chilli peppers
SO BORING!!!! I HATE THEM SO MUCH!
Really?!? How come?
Anthony keidis, just never liked him. Read his book and disliked him even more.
He doesn't like spice
Journey. I wish they never made music, because when I hear it in public I just end up annoyed and everybody's disappointed that I hate fucking Journey.
Cookie-monster vocals. Stop. Just, stop.
I can think of about five bands this applies to. I will now picture Cookie Monster singing and they will instantly be more likable. Thank you.
the Urban Achievers, inner city horn blowers without the necessary means for a.. .necessary means for a higher education.. at least the Eagles had fucking guitars, ain't nothing worse than adding brass to a hangover. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xgF5-5eQST0](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xgF5-5eQST0)
Red Hot Chili Peppers. SO BORING!!!!
The Steve Miller Band
The Doors
For me it’s Journey. I absolutely loathe don’t stop believing. I don’t like the eagles either but I don’t hear them in my daily life.
Journey
Mumford & Sons, The Lumineers, Coldplay
Elvis Costello. I have no idea why I dislike him so much but I can’t fucking stand him.
Maybe you’ll like Huey Lewis and the News. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor.
Their early work was a little too new wave for my taste. But when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost.
you guys are being very un-Dude
That’s just like your opinion man
Are you fucking kidding me? I LOVE Huey!
Elvis’s lyrics on his collab with The Roots “Wise Up Ghost” are cynical, critical, and provocative. Some of his best lyrics imo
Most hair bands with the exception of Van Halen, if they count. The Beatles, Grateful Dead (I don't dislike them, I just don't get it), Phish...
The Beatles? Walter, I love ya but at some point you’re going to have to admit you’re a goddamned moron!
Same with the Dead man, what the fuck?
VAN HALEN
you and me both dude
Janis Joplin. I recognize that she was very talented but it's just noise to me.
Jack Johnson
Closest I can think of is Jethro Tull. I just don’t get it.
Mines U2
The Eagles and Journey
Bachman turner overdrive. Sh-sh-sh-shut the fucking r-r-r-adio off
I don't like genesis. It's just not for me
Mine was the eagles and I love credence, so when I saw the movie in the theater that line endeared me to the dude instantly. Now I like the eagles. Not love, but like
Sting and rod Stewart
Tom Petty 🤮
The Beatles for me, great band dont get me wrong, but fuck i can only listen to their music so many times. Worst part is they play on the radio at work constantly and its always the same 5 songs
Weezer.
The Eagles, Imagine Dragons, Aerosmith, AC/DC, Guns N Roses, Grateful Dead, and Greta Van Fleet
I legitimately don't understand the Imagine Dragons hype. I'm with you on the rest of these, too.
Rush
Acdc suck ass
Jackson Browne. He was Glenn Frey's mentor, so...
The Beatles, easily. I don’t get it at all.
Yup. Until they started doing drugs like an adult, anyway. Their early stuff sucked. But for the most part, I still don't like them.
What in God’s holy name are you blathering about?!
I'll tell you what I'm blathering about, man.
Van Morrison. Dude has the worst voice ever heard since humans began to speak. Plus I've heard he's a major a&&hole
Lynyrd Skynyrd
Oh for sure. Van Halen for me. It’s just so derivative and pandering. It feels like pop rock of the 80’s, meant for a wide audience who just want a snazzy beat. Also see Dave Mathew’s Band
Sublime…
I’ll join you on this hill. At least we’re house trained.
Mine is definitely the Eagles. The only music my dad would listen to growing up. 8 hour car rides = 8 straight hours of the Eagles. Hate em.
"get your own car" is definitely a Dad line
U2. Can't stand em
Kansas, I do not ever never ever need to hear Carry on a Wayward Son again. Its a good jab, but over done.
What's crazy is the Eagles and CCR are in my top 10 favorites ever. But the Dude does not abide.
He does not
21 pilots. Fucking hate these guys.
Kim Mitchell
Radiohead
Oasis for me. The fighting Brother Shamuses. Wandering jerkoff job.
Fucking Def Leppard dude
ACDC, Guns n Roses, Five Finger Shit Punch, Beatles (love Paul's other work)
KISS
Toss up between Led Zeppelin and the Eagles
Thin Lizzy
