Worst concert, REM when they were starting out.
Recorded voice that irritates me the most? Dead Kennedys.
I am, personally, pretty tolerant of imperfect singing if the song is good, think a whole lot of bands just let the best singer they have sing, instead of finding someone who can really sing, and that's OK.
Biafra is... Something. I can't say whether or not it works in Dead Kennedies, but IMO it works just fine in Lard. I think that for the ethos of punk music--not pop punk, but the real shit--he's pretty good.
I mean, his voice is perfect for Police Truck and Moon Over Marin but every now and again I'll just... Stop while listening and think "ugh"
Imagine dragons - cutthroat. I dislike imagine dragons as it is, but this song is so bad it sounds like a bad parody of a shitty song.
When I heard the Tool cover of No Quarter and found out the original was by Led Zeppelin I gave that version a spin too. My disappointment was immeasurable and my day was ruined.
Reason being that I really like the Led Zeppelin vocalist. But his performance on that song is just unbearable to me.
The Tool cover though, absolutely amazing!
Can't stand the voice on Matt Bellamy from Muse. I could probably tolerate them with a different singer.
There many songs that I hate more than anything by the Carpenters but they are the only band with bad songs that I've had the misfortune of listening to more than one bad song of. I can't stand the treacly, cutesy bullshit they put out.
I would also put the person who sang " ON THE WINGS OF LOOOOOOOVE" on here but I can't be arsed to look them up.
i think untitled black is by sault has some of the most unemotional bland pathetic excuse for vocal delivery ive ever heard. it makes the entire record sound like a corporate mandated album
couple of songs are decent tho, like wildfires and the one with michael kiwanuka, but everything else is plagued with uninspired lyrics and mindnumbingly boring instrumentals. on top of flat "i was going to close in 5 minutes but a customer just walked in" vocals
A support band for Madness. To call them crap would be an insult to all the genuinely crap bands out there. They went through crap and came out the other side. Then they went through whatever level of shitness that was and came out the other side. I don't think anyone applauded them, except when they stopped making whatever ungodly racket they were making and went offstage. I've never been more relieved to hear a bunch of unmusical talent-free potty-mouthed morons finally STFU.
Trickhay on YouTube... Learned about him when he posted an ad on Craigslist looking for a singer for his music. He's become an inside joke for my SO and I. I think my favorite is "hoop dance".
I have a perhaps unreasonable dislike of The Best Day by Atmosphere.
Pink Floyd is underwhelming for a band commonly labelled as "prog rock". Most of their stuff is forgettable, albeit Alan Parsons Project came off it, so I guess it's not irredeemable if it inspired something genuinely good.
I've watched so much german trash tv where people sing that nothing on this planet can shock me
