What music is the lamest?

[Anime_Lover02]

I totally think that the lamest tyte of music are Regueton,Ballads,and rock in spanish.

[Tobi]

Rap, RnB.

Gawd... I hate them soooooooooooo damn much.

[ToT]

I'd probably say French and country music =P

[Domhnall]

All that stuff the UK media describes as the best "indie" bands around.

i.e. The Kooks, Razorlight, The Kaiser Chiefs, The Fratellis, The View etc.

Fall Out Boy are awful. Like properly awful. As are Panic! At The Disoc. I don't hate My Chemical Romance (although I don't like their music at all) because they're at least trying to be good whilst those other two are purposefully trying to make bad music. I am bloody sure of it.

Weezer's latest album, The Red Hot Chilii Peppers latest album.

Avril Lavigne

Blink 182, The Offspring, Green Day, +44, Bowling for Soup, Sum 41

Just about all the rap and RnB that gets played on the radio (special mention to 50 Cent, Fergie and The Black Eyed Peas).

Nickelback

James Blunt, KT Tunstall, Paolo Nutini

The Killers

Scottish teuchdary (traditional) bands such as Face the West, Capercaillie and The Vatersay Boys.

Most j-pop I've heard.

edit:

Oh, oh, oh!

Those crappy manufactured pop bands.

Boyzone, Take That, Westlife, The Spice Girls, Girls Aloud

The winners of those 'talent' finding reality tv shows like Pop Idol.

Busted and the three splinter Busted groups (Fight Star, the guy who went solo (Owen?) and Son of Dork).

Those crappy metal bands which seem to be popping up everywhere.

Rap, Hip-Hop, all gangster stuff are gay, think they're cool, I want to frickin kill them lol

[yahhzoo]

Yeah im not a fan of rap. It annoys me too much lol

[GoldenFire]

Music like gangsta type rapping annoys me a lot, country, a lot of that RnB stuff on the radio, special mention to stuff like Fergie and Avril and anything remotely similar to them.

[XV Barixn]

I listen to French musique >.>, but that's only when I'm doing something French-related.

I agree with the above, gang/sex-related rapping sucks, but there are some forms of rap that I don't mind.

I hate Fall Out Boy, and I don't understand why anyone would like it.

[Rorschach]

Some Country is good, Like Johnny Cash for example :toocool:

i can't stand r&b
my sister made me listen to a missy elliott album and by halfway through i wanted to kill myself and i spent the rest of it attempting to hang myself...

I forgot to mention most dance music.

Especially the ones which follow this formula:

Get a repetitive beat + a video full of bikini clad women running, doing work, etc. = 'good' music

People that love to use chipmonks in their songs (yeah, I'm looking at you, Akon!).

[Asuka]

New Rap. Old school rap is cool but damn is the stuff today crappy! Oh, and country music.

[Shezmu]

Hardcore.

I frickin' hate it it doesn't sound like music to me, plus most people that listen to it are racist skinheads (MOST, not all ofcourse).
I also hate music from people like akon, ne-yo, r.kelly. they suck =/

Without it, we won't have modern music ;)

Er... yeah Rap and repetitive Dance and techno (in Russia we call that "Salami" for some reason) :p

lamest music out there has to be....country.

same old stories, same old melodies, same old styles of singing (talking basically)

[nx6]

Because it's full of fillers? :D

Gangsta/Sex Rap sucks. Some independant hip-hop is okay, though. New coutry is lousy overall. But some bluegrass is sweet.

NuMetal/RapMetal --- suck.

Garage Rock (not poser stuff) ---- cool.

well Domnhall summed it ALL up for me. lol

[Chrono Detector]

Oh, I also hate gangsta music as well, I'm sick of hearing people rapping about power, money, hoes, b1tches, players, pimps, killing people, the ghetto, blah blah blah.

I hate progressive, that means repetitive music with the same old baseline and melody throughout the track, pisses me off till no end.

Anything that is cheesy and commercial pisses me off too.

Death metal gives me a headache as well.

[Fujiwara Ayumi]

counrty music, bossa nova, hiphop,r&b,rap. it really annoys me.

[Hits]

Hip Hop and "Gansta" Rap.
I just hate how generic they can be. Everything sounds the same. But most of all, I hate the lifestyle they represent.

[Harley Quinn]

I don't actually have any particular catogory of music that I dislike.I mean, yeah alot of the above do have some crappy music but I've always managed to find exceptions.Like for instance I hate snoop dog caus he can't rap for shit(SHIZZLE, DIZZLE and even fine dime BRIZZLES are not words and never will be)but Cannibus can actually spit out some really complex rhymes.

[nx6]

Hip Hop and "Gansta" Rap.

I think it's rather funny. Because the songs are all about how tough life is in the ghetto and dangerous and sh** and I'm just like STFU, you're a rapper with three platinum records, you live the most white bred life on that side of LA. You don't have to worry about being shot except for the dumb drama you start with other rappers, other than that you got a bunch of bodygaurds and a security system on your mansion protecting you.

[Makai_Dranix]

yeah, i agree with Domhnall as well... however i must ask... why are The Killers in a seperate place to The Kook's, Razorlight, Kaiser Chiefs, etc when they're part of that group... also, i ask anyone to listen to a Razorlight, Killers or Kaiser Chiefs song that they've never heard before and tell me which of the 3 it comes from... i seriously cant tell the difference!!! and the worst part is... i hate all 3 bands!!!

The Killers came later in the thought process and I'd draw a distinction because whilst I said what they [the media] describe as the best indie I really should have said those "indie" bands that follow the same formula as The Libertines (who NME slavoured all over and basically said they were the best thing EVARR!!! when really they were decent to good) and all have similiar sounds. Whilst The Killers are touted as the best out there I think they definately have a different sound (compare Mr. Brightside, Indie Rock and Roll and Bones to I Predict a Riot, Na na na na na and Golden Touch).

So, yeah. It was a labelling error on my part.

:)

[sirhchris]

hip hop, or, there is some good, but the new hip hop wave.. SUCKS, one beat threw the entire song, and the artist sings about how cool he is, and how mutch drugs he takes -.-

[Cursive]

Mainstream hip hop, most mainstream pop, mainstream post-hardcore, all metal, and visual kei are all pretty lame.
Metal because it seems to be just a fight of who can pluck strings fastest.
Visual kei because the genre itself is more focused on the appearance than the music, and both are horrible.
Mainstream anything because they sacrifice content for rhyme and money.

[Envy]

Country, rock (except for classic, it's good!) and the rap that I've heard.

[.System]

Without Classical we won't have stuff like Blues and Jazz, without Blues and Jazz we won't have Metal and without old school metal we won't have this modern crap they call music (new pop, rap, R&B, Drum and Base)

So please, don't say ANYTHING about metal!! and it's NOT about who can pluck strings faster, its about MUSIC, i agree some of the new stuff kinda sucks but listen to some of the old stuff and you will see the error of your ways!

[SLVR]

Pop. Those rock bands who sound like fags Fall out Bo or w/e stuff like that. Rap today they are suppose to be able to make good ryhmes let a alone rhyme

Just because band A influenced band B it does not mean that band A is better. Along the same lines I can love genre A which drew heavy inlfuences from genre C whilst disliking genre C. Of course I could still see genre B as the best one out of the three.

Also I fail to see how old school (I hate that phrase so, so much) metal directly led to all the pop, rap and R&B that's being made today. Of course that's my own failing. I'm sure you have a magical graph - for we all love graphs! - to show me how it does.

You should also remember that just about everyone is talking in generalities here. It's the 'lamest' (hate that word as well) music to that person and whilst classical is good just because it influenced people ('cause we all know it goes Bach > Buddy Holly > 50 Cent) it does not mean that you have to like it. Heck, you could hate it (although that'd be a travisty since classical music is lovely).

[.System]

look

It's just common sense really, one genre influenced the other, so the one it is influenced of is better, take for example the world of graphic design, one designer sees a piece he really likes so he copied the effects used, though it turned out not as good as the original, same thing with music in my opinion.

No, the thing is it is not common sense. It is a load of rubbish.

By your logic Buddy Holly is better than every single metal band you enjoy/like/love. No matter what.

See? It's crap.

Take for example the world of graphic design, one designer sees a piece he really likes so he copied the effects used and it turned out to be better than original. This happens a lot of the time in music. Of course a lot of the time it doesn't happen.

Even then there's things which weren't influenced by many of the things which came before. Joanna Newsom was not influeced by Black Sabbath.

[.System]

Whatever... :rolleye09

I just listen to what i like, but to me all the new bands are not as good as the predecessors thats all, don't rip my head of! :o

Yeah but that wasn't the point you were trying to make. You were stating that someone who was influenced by something can never better the thing which influenced him/her which is a load of rubbish. Also there was your claim that music today has some direct link to 'old school' metal. Which is also a load of rubbish.

Of course I may be wrong on in that area. Please, tell me how Black Sabbath has led to The Pipettes, The Shins, Wilco, Modest Mouse, 50 Cent, Eminem, DJ Shadow, Joanna Newsom, Bonnie Prince Billie, Radiohead, Coldplay, Keane, Snow Patrol, Belle & Sebastian, Camera Obscura, Devendra Banhart, Beck, Willy Mason, James Blunt, KT Tunstall, The Black Eyed Peas, Avril Lavigne, Bjork, Girls Aloud, Westlife, Take That, Robbie Williams and Weezer 'cause I'd really like to know.

New technology paved the way to new styles of music, for example Micheal Jackson uses mostly beats but in the song "Beat It" there is a solo by Van Halen at the end, soon the guitars became less and less used than the new technology, but if you listen closely you can still here Metal origins on some of the new songs...

I decided to introduce lots of modern music, but hey, let's do it by you specifically stated.

First up, pop!

Please tell me how Belle & Sebastian, Camera Obscura, The Pipettes, The Shins, Girls Aloud, Westlife, Take That, Boyzone and The Boy Least Likely To (all modern bands who perform some type of pop music) would not be here if it was not for old school metal.

Beyond an extremely vague story about guitars not really being used as much (although, for example, The Shins mainly use guitars (bass, acoustic, electric)), Van Halen once doing a solo at the end of a single Michael Jackson song and if you closely listen you can hear metal origins ('...' at the end of that indeed) I don't think you can.

Hip Hop in general is lame.

Rap and hip-hop. Hearing about shooting the police and going to clubs with "hoes" isn't my kind of thing.

[davidn15]

good music: rock and stuff like kelly clarkson, some rnb
bad stuff: pretty much all rap except for eminem

[飛雲]

I kind of like all sort of music from R&B to Classical and some what of Disco but the one that I believe to be the lamest it have to be Rap..

[Reenee_2340]

i like basically anything, but theres i just some songs I just cant stand!!
since this thread is about opinions, then here is mine :)


well....bluegrass(im ok wit country tho)....and emo punk rock.....and rap(its gettin worse every second!!!!

[WooHooMaster]

Rap, RnB, Hip-hop. Most of it is annoying and really retarded. I will admit some good ones, but most is retarded. Old school rap is good. Only American rapis retarded, I've listened to some french rap(I didn't understand it all) and I liked it because it wasn't about retarded topics like American rap. American rap is ruled by complete idiots and all they want to talk about is their hoes and how they got shot and how they popped a cap in some guy's ass. Who the **** cares .

Rock kicks raps ass!

[..::Mr 999::..]

pop and 70`s music

[Setsuna Ai]

There isn't really a lame music since there could be that one song to redeem that genre. For example, I think country is generally lame but there were certain songs that redeemed its quality.

But if you ask me, I think anything by Rhianna is lame. Especially that umbrella song. It seemed like she couldn't think of any other words to put so she added in the syllables, "Eh-Eh-Ella Ella Ella -eh -eh" She sounds like a retard singing that song.

songs with no grace

[Ares]

I don't really like some forms of rap because the beats always seem to be overused and recycled.

That and I don't really like how they try to boost their rep by insulting other rappers in their songs. And frankly, I don't about how many Ho's they have....

[Chrono Detector]

I find "diss" songs annoying. Its about about a rapper hating another rapper and they rap sometime bad or either make up something about them... urgh its so annoying, I don't call that entertainment at all, I call that being immature and being hostile. Your not going to make friends like that.
