Bass tones that drive you nuts!!

Hi, I think this belongs in this forum... So I was listening to the newest Laaz Rockit CD (Left for Dead, 2008) and realized that the worst part of the entire album was the bass tone; IMO. Here's a youtube link of a song. (I know the style isn't for everyone, but this thread isn't intended for genre discussion. I just wanna here some bad bass in any genre! lol)

So I was just wondering if there are any records that you get that same feeling; where the composition and recording is good, even has a decent bassline, but the bass tone just drives you up the wall. Post what you got

I was going to say Korn but it's too obvious.

What do you mean? You don't like the sound of strings so loose all you can hear is the fret buzz even if it's an open note? lol

Fieldy uses so much of a California Smile™ on the EQ section he needed a plastic surgeon to get it right.

It just leaves his tone so incredibly hollow sounding
