Tom Morello's solo work (The Nightwatchman) is infinitely better than Rage Against The Machine or Audioslave. How to Destroy Angels is better than Nine Inch Nails, and "The Downward Spiral" is a disgustingly overrated album.

Also, Brother Dege is easily the best current/new folk/country musician.

Oh, I've got one. I cannot stand Christina Perri's "A Thousand Years" song. The melody is bland, the lyrics make no sense, and the song just drags on. Anybody who says "This song is so beautiful! <3" has never heard beautiful music in their life.

Pharell Williams should work on a new song and the lyrics should go "Because I repeat!! - - - - - - Because I repeat!! - - - - -"

I really can't stand it when music just repeats the lyrics over and over. One of the worst of all is Rihanna - We Found Love.

I thought this one was the worst when it came to repetition:

That one's really bad. Whenever I think of Rihanna and repetition, I think of this:

This song makes me want to go deaf. I also hate Rihanna with a passion.

Lots of people, especially on Tumblr, idolize Nicki Minaj for being a hardcore female figure and badass, but she freaks me out a little. From the ass implants to... everything else. I don't hate her, she just puts me off and when I have female friends screaming "PARTAY LIYYYK NIKAHH" in my ear I just sortof kindof maybe definitely do want to die a little bit.

I hear that song at work.

"96 Tears" is one of the worst hit songs of the 60's. It sounds like it was written by a middle schooler.

I hear that song at work.

I feel so bad for you.

Also, The Rolling Stones are one of the most overrated bands of all time.

 

[Mourning Dove]

That "Fancy" song (I don't care enough to find its actual title) can go fuck off. Thank goodness I'm a hipster and don't listen to popular music stations, so I avoid it most of the time.

To add to that, Kieth Richards has the worst singing voice in my opinion. It just sounds like someone poured a box of nails into his throat every time he opens his mouth.

Nicki Minaj did this song called "Stupid Hoe" (don't wanna link it, the page is getting rather full of embedded videos and that causes everything to lag). I love it. It's silly and infantile and it's the rappist equivalent of a little babby girl on the playground pointing and yelling at some other babby and if the lyrics make me giggle, watching the video makes me crack up. It's not comedy, but it sure is funny.

Imagine Dragons are this generation's Coldplay. Not in terms of sound, in terms of how very dull they are and how many records they will no doubt sell.

 

[Mogambo]

Thank goodness I'm a hipster

No doubt the first time anyone has ever said (or typed) that

American Authors are the poor man's Imagine Dragons.

I don't care how upbeat and innocuous that song is. The "Happy" song playing everywhere is going to drive me insane.

 

[TrippinKahlua]

"Say what you need to say."
"Say what you need to say."
"Say what you need to say."
"Say what you need to say."
"Say what you need to say."
"Say what you need to say."
"Say what you need to say."
"Say what you need to say."
"Say what you need to say."
"Say what you need to say."

Um…. how the hell am I ever going to do that if you just keep repeating yourself!!

I hate Def Leppard. I was 4 years old in 1987, the year they were ubiquitous, and they almost ruined rock music for me.
Then I heard Satisfaction for the first time. Ten years later, I started playing guitar. To this day I can't play electric without distortion.
Also hate the Grateful Dead and Pitbull. My musical preferences are a crapshoot though. Love Led Zeppelin (indifferent to Stairway), hate almost every hair metal band they influenced. To each their own, I guess.

Love Led Zeppelin (indifferent to Stairway)

Looks like we're on the same page.

Indeed. I call him Jimmy. Sorry, I had to. Page is one of my favorite guitarists ever.
My favorite Zeppelin song of all time is The Rover, actually.
Here's a very unpopular opinion on music: I prefer Black Sabbath over Ozzy solo. And Clapton should never sing: he's better when he focuses on guitar.
