Worst band of the year...

Limp Bizkit, followed by Creed, according to a CNN poll.

I would have them switched, personally.

Does this mean Fred Durst will go away now?

Re: Worst band of the year...

Limp Bizkit, Creed, Strokes, BlinkSRFenixLitetc., Good Charlotte.

Wow. I finally agree with something in the music press.

The Strokes? confused

I dig The Strokes!

The other bands do suck.

Durst is one of these obnoxious famous-just-'cause-he's-famous yahoos that plague radio airwaves and television.

Popular music in general is in extremely sad shape.

Re: Worst band of the year...

Pop music is in bad shape? When has it not been? I thought that's what made it 'pop'?

Oh, and I'd add White Stripes to the 'worst' list. They suck.

Re: Worst band of the year...

Most of those bands I've never heard of.

Creed I have heard of. I think they had a song on the radio that I liked about 3 years ago.

Re: Worst band of the year...

I hate Creed.

And I hate Limp smurf too. Fred Durst is a joke of a human being; he's an immature brat who has nothing better to do but talk crap about other celebrities; namely female ones, and brag about his sexual escapades (which never happened! gasp! shock!) with them. Go back to highschool, you stupid hick smurf.

Re: Worst band of the year...

Creed... The older stuff sounds good with a nice stereo. Just... has good sound.

I would have voted for the band of "smurf" that made up all those <insert various country> Idol acts. Those were horrible.

Clay Aiken... Measure of a man. My ass.

Re: Worst band of the year...

The White Stripes.  Please...I understand that some people like the guitar rifts, but you know what, I heard those same rifts in TRANCE music.  Shessh, the White Stripes are on my list as hipster bands I wish would disappear.  And oh yeah, the Strokes.  A band full of rich kids in grudge wear when they can obviously afford Prada.

Yes 'sau, but why wear Prada when you can wear thrift store clothing, and you can look like you're stuck in 1993? wink

(Like me)

Oh, how I love cardigans!

Re: Worst band of the year...

The Offspring.

My word.  Does anyone else get seriously annoyed with this guy's 6 note vocal range?  I pity the rest of the band, I really do.  And then there's the whole "play that brand new thing" thing that was their last single's hook.  So they write a song making fun of trendy people.  OK.  Fine.  What's their next hit?  A title called "I know you wanna hit that." 

That, is irony.  And it's not the good kind.

Re: Worst band of the year...

Another vote for White Stripes here, altho, do they even qualify as a "band"?

I normally like the offspring, but I'll second this vote. Their latest effort was pretty weak.

Oh come on - it isn't a good show if it doesn't make your ears bleed in the first five minutes.

What the hell is a guitar rift?

Is it something you have to pay a luthier to fix?
