Well known bands that you don't like

I'm sure everybody has at least one well known band that "everybody else" likes but you don't.

I didn't like "Supertramp" and I didn't like "38 Special" Why? I don't know, I just didn't.

What bands don't/didn't you like?

In all seriousness. 80% of "new music"

So much hatred....

the beatles and the stones.

i like a couple of their songs, but i can't really listen to them that much. they don't do much for me. (though lennon's voice, with that smooth grit he had going, was quite beautiful.)

Lynyrd Skynrd. "I do not need this gig enough to play that! You want freebird?" as I flip him off " NO CHARGE!"

I should clarify that I *did* like the Beatles and Stones, but I can understand how it could get on someone else's nerves. The Grateful Dead had 2 good songs, "Truckin'" and "Touch of Grey".

I like a lot, and can tune out a lot more, but the following really bother me and I will actively avoid and change the station:
Clapton
Springsteen
Metallica
Grateful Dead
Anything remotely rap or hip-hop
