Fucking.Coldplay. Since Viva la vida I started hating their guts and I dont really know why,

God, I fucking hate Coldplay. You really can't get more middle of the road than their bullshit.

Far too many to name, but a few off the top of my head:

Oasis
Kaiser Chiefs
Kanye
Limp Bizkit
Blink 182
Imagine Dragons

I could go on, but I have a cloud to yell at.
 
Coldplay. I associate the band with a former friend who really did wrong by me. Can't hear any of their songs without thinking of that pretentious, proto-hipster, jerk.
 
I don't really "hate" any specific band just pretty much the whole of popular music today. Then again I don't hate it really I just strongly dislike it there are few exceptions really.
 
The Strokes, Kings of Leon, Arctic Monkeys, any band that goes for that faux-70s rock sound and/or aesthetic (or did at some point.)
 
DeathGrips is the biggest piece of shit band I have ever had to listen to....
The "rapper" has the worst flow and sound ever. The music sounds like straight up noise...

DurrGrips keeps getting my hopes up with breaking up but they keep making albums damn it...
 
Surprised no one has mentioned Creed yet.

I really dislike Limp Bizkit but I mean, that's a little extreme and Nookie is probably one of the dumbest songs I've had the displeasure of listening to.

Forcing Limp Bizkit to play Limp Biscuit isn't extreme, it's justice for years of crap songs.

Speaking of terrible opinions...
 
Sam Smith

From all evidence he's an amazing person. Wish him the best.

But it grates on my nerves to hear guys sing in high pitch "soft" voices. Can't stand it.
 
I think Creed and Nickelback get hated to an irrational degree.

I might say Hoobastank purely because I can't stand "The Reason." Around that same period I really hated the ".45" song.
 
Dave Mustaine isn't in Iron Maiden, though. You're thinking of Megadeth.

Yeah I am. I don't know why I got them confused.

Guns N Roses. Rose is a fucking poser.

In fact, all the hair metal era bands (with a few exceptions) can die in a fire.

Shit I forgot about GnR. Yeah, fuck them seriously. Axel Rose is a fucking tool. Also agree with you on hair metal. I would extend that to Arena Rock too.
 
Rhianna probably. Though from my ears' perspective, it isn't irrational.

I don't really care much for Queen either. I appreciate that they're a good band and that Freddie is amazing, but my ex LOVED them and I only ever found them okay so that meant they had to get played all the time and it just got old.

So she ruined Queen for me I guess :P
 
The Doors...and I love 60's psych rock. It's mainly Morrison, but there is just no part of me that has ever been in the mood to listen to the Doors.
 
U2 for two reasons. I can't stand Bono, and I can't stand The Edge's bandana hand his stupid name.

Their music kinda sucks too.
 
Deftones have become one of my favourite bands. I first saw them in '03 and they weren't very good, nor did I like their music much, but it grew on me a lot.

I've seen them a couple of times since and they were much better.
 
Oof, yeah. How on earth is this band so popular? Yeesh.
Because they're a legitimately great band. But this is an "irrational hate" thread so I'm not gunna be upset for people disliking stuff I do like. That Megadeth comment makes me wanna take up fisticuffs though.
 
I can't think of any bands that I really hate, but I really don't like the Eagles.

I used to not mind them growing up, but something happened in the late '90s where everytime I heard a song by the Eagles I just wanted to change the station.

There is stuff that I've heard that I wasn't aware it was them and asked my friend to change the album and then he made me aware it was the Eagles. Can't think of another band that immediately makes me want to stop listening to the radio.

Can't stand them. Don't hate them, but really can't stand them.

I hate the fuckin' Eagles, man. HATE 'em. And not just as a kitschy reference.

But the Eagle I hate the most is Joe Walsh. "Life's Been Good" is the most grating, tiring song ever to pollute classic rock radio.

(And sprsk, "Don't Change" by INXS is a helluva catchy song! C'mon, man!)
But for some reason I don't mind them separate. Even like Joe Walsh's Ordinary Average Guys and Life's Been Good. And like The James Gang.
 
I think every generic rapper who makes songs where the only excuse the fans can say is, "Well its good for a club".
