Every time I see the name Phish on this forum it confuses me. Are there two bands called Phish, and one is meant to be less shit than the redneck wankers I'm thinking of? 'Cause that band are Pish.

Add Ween and They Might Might Be Giants to that list. If those people got into music to vindicate the fact that they were bullied in school, they are giving their tormentors more reasons to chase them down the football pitch with a carrier bag full of excreta.

Phish are precisely the reason that when people think of improv they think of ugly pastafarians playing funk bass. I actually think the bands I hate most are often the ones that, due to mutual friends and obscurity, I can't actually name in public.

Ween I can sort of understand but TMBG sort of surprises me. not because i think they're good but because they're so unlike anything I can imagine you even trying to listen to in the first place. I tend to find the bands people hate the most are those that come to misrepresent (in their eyes) something that they hold quite dear (hence a lot of people here having problems with bands like pearl jam), or else they can see in something, a side of themselves that they really dislike (this board's general hatred of hipster culture, etc). EDIT: Actually, scratch that. I listed Limp Bizkit, who represent none of those things to me at all. |

Either I have a massive deja vu (wich, in case you're unaware, does NOT mean "erection") or Glice had the chance to express his view on Pish with similar words on a couple occasions in other threads...

TMBG I mentioned because they're one of those bands I can safely say are shit, both musically and lyrically, even though they're clearly as relevant as making a point of really hating a band as such. I did buy one of their records in my formative indie years, and they immediately struck me as everything I knowI don't like about a band. Their songs have an air of whingesome pedantry, an insipidity of intent that simply doesn't cut it with me. Probably a better choice for that would have been Pavement. Also, I've mentioned them because I like taking the mickey out of Rob, even though he's a nice bloke. and he doesn't mind making his bad taste public. It's interesting what you say about ''the bands people hate the most are those that come to misrepresent (in their eyes) something that they hold quite dear''. Personally I'm prepared to ignore any lack of aesthetic appeal (interpret broadly) if the records are of my taste, but if both the music and the looks suck big balls, I find myself acting like those who work with the general public every day, get three people making a big fuss over a stupid thing, and reach the end of their shift thinking that everyone they deal with is an arsehole. I am not saying this is the right or wrong attitude, and it's not something that has much of an impact on my daily routine in general, it's just one of those things that happen, you calm down, and then you're back to normal. I don't care much about hipsters, if they happen to be cool with me, I am cool with them. |

yeah, i thought for a while they were going to get really into that tourettes-choir-covering-the-beach-boys sound then.. they got into it and it was kinda annoying. their last one's a total dance album though.

I know they've already been mentioned but the most obvious answer for me is Nickelback. To me they are the musical equivalent of Crocs. Tacky and totally indicative of a complete lack of taste. If I see someone wearing Crocs or listening to Nickelback, I instantly know that is a person I will never get along with.
Phish - Yeah, they are absolutely crap and I should hate them but I just can't. Trey shopped in my (now closed) record store all the time and he's the nicest guy you'd ever want to meet. He'd buy tons and tons of stuff, in just about every genre. Most of it pretty good too. I have no idea why his good taste doesn't translate to his music. |

Creed blows. Believe it or not, there's a Creed tribute band called Human Clay. It's always mystified me how a musician could agree to be in a band like Human Clay. Their entire purpose for existing is to imitate a band who sucks ass. So whatever talent you have would be used to suck ass as well. It makes my head explode just thinking about it. |
