REM,
U2,

- the singers have this "i want to save the world" attitude written in
their songs and performance and i think the right attitude would be
"i want to destroy the world". Taking the privilege of destroying the world would
make the people who really destroy it angry and saving the world- attitude really
isnÂ´t anything else than politics and i personally hate music that wants to save the world.

I'm with Crobi-Wan ... also, I detest all "radio" pop music (Britney Spears, Justin Timerlake, etc) and 99% of rap/hip-hop. Way too many bands to list all of my least favorites but here's my top 5 most hated bands:

1) Beach Boys
2) Nickelback
3) Hawthorne Heights
4) 'Lil John
5) Madonna

Quote from: crowbi_wan on January 14, 2007, 02:40:10Kind of funny, I typed in Muse on Rhapsody and the results I received for bands a Muse fan might like were Coldplay, U2, Keane, Snow Patrol, Johnny Cash, Placebo, Queensryche, Radiohead, Oasis, and a few others. They got you pegged

sorry i'm too lazy to bother signing up for it but let me guess what might come up if you'd type 'the cure' in there:
siouxsie & the banshess, sister of mercy, bauhaus etc....?

(the endless reliability of these search engines' "recommendations"...?)

Usually, the most "similar" band to the Cure you get is The Smiths/Morrissey...

I really don't see the connection here. Then Radiohead, The Clash (uh ???), Smashing Pumpkins... SOM/Bauhaus and other post punks/goth bands come long after these.

Well, it differs per each of The Cure's albums, but H.I.M., Depeche Mode, The Creatures, The Cranes, I Am a Ghost, David Bowie, Siouxsie, New Order,This Mortal Coil, The Damned, and VHS or Beta come up quite a bit. Franz Ferdinand, The Smiths, The Rapture, and Def Leppard were all recommended when I selected 'Faith'.

def leppard.... hmm, let's see:

...Women to the left, women to the right
There to entertain and take you thru the night
So grab a little heat and come along with me
'Cos your mama don't mind what your mama don't see
Anything goes!
(That's right)
(Come on)
Anything goes!
Ooh oh
I say Rock! Rock! till you drop
Rock! Rock! never stop
Rock! Rock! till you drop
I say Rock! Rock! to the top
Ridin' into danger, laughin' all the way
Fast, free and easy, livin' for today
Gotta lip service, get it while you can
Hot, sweat'n'nervous love on demand
Anything goes!
(Oh)
Anything goes!
(All night long)
I say Rock! Rock! till you drop
Come on Rock! Rock! never stop
You gotta Rock! Rock! till you drop
(Oh)
Rock! Rock! to the top
Oh yeah!
Let's shout!

and:

catch me if i fall....

oh yeah, it's already obvious - definitely very much alike! 8)

erpomata · January 16, 2007, 13:33:07

ciao

i hate/don't like:
beatles - the most overvalued group in history...only because they were the first they must be the best?
U2 - they finished with unforgettable fire, after this bono thinks to be god :(
all the goth metal bands, like evanescence, or dream theater or lacuna coil...even if italian

good for teenagers with black candles in their rooms!
i don't consider the mtv music, of course.
and i really hate from the bottom of my heart eros ramazzotti and antonello venditti

but as someone said once: everybody in the world writes two good songs in his life.

sonic · January 16, 2007, 17:22:55

I really don't like Bob Dylan! He can't sing, is f***ing ugly and bores me to death.
He has written some good songs, but they only sound good, when someone covers them.

Sussex · February 15, 2007, 06:21:27

These are several band/artist that i hate the most:

Hip-Hop Artist (they're sucks)
Linkin f*ck
Lost prophets
My Chemical What so ever

smitha · March 07, 2007, 20:59:00

Sorry guys, but Bauhaus isn't just some guy singing in a low voice.
I had to say something about this, theyÂ´re my favourite band after The Cure. 8)

dsanchez · March 07, 2007, 21:00:56

I have to support Smitha, Bauhaus are Bauhaus

but I guess not everyone has the same taste :roll:

David.

that's why i started this thread i suppose. because we all like the cure but then the rest of it...
it can be so different and i think it's kind of interesting, the likes we share and the dislikes we disagree about.

lostflower4 · March 09, 2007, 13:49:31

One artist I cannot stand... John Mayer!

Seems every time I turn on the TV he's there, acting like a fool, shaking his leg with some crazy look on his face, singing some lame ass song â€" followed by more acting like a fool. Ahhh!!!

ahahah, his was the laugh of the day, of the all week...

, sonic, don't know how you get it but you made me really laugh (... is f***ing ulgy... ahahahahah )

About the topic (an interesting one, with no doubts) I must say something also:
Respectable artists that I just can't stand I'd choose The Doors, Queen and Pearl Jam as the main ones. And that actual band, the saviours of the world...Hmm how they name themselves?... Usomething... well I don't remember their name but if you pick their last 3 records you'll see that they are playing the same song, after and after... too lazy, enormous and egocentric for my taste.

And yes, Bauhaus, Sisters of Mercy, The Smiths and The banshees are part of my history and from the music industry history, actually. Too good for me to be left over.
