Bands you can't stand but respect

I thought this was a great idea for a thread, I totally pulled it from another forum (not this website)

I read the rules, this seems to be acceptable but I do apologize if its against the talkbass rules!

Please reply to this message with any bands or acts that you cant stand but respect. Have fun:hyper:
 
The beatles, i can't stand this band, i don't love their music and always my dad and my music teacher talking or taking exemple about them -_- but i fully respect their talent and what they made in this world.

Same here! It seems like almost everyone likes them, their success sort of turns me off to them...if that makes any sense. It is pretty safe to say they are the most successful band of all time and I respect them for that. All though I don't 100% dislike them I do have a few of their tunes on my computer but its just seems like they are at the top of every best 100 list revolving around music and idk they just aren't for me. I can see myself liking them when I'm an adult though.
 
Coldplay. the music makes me want to throw up in my mouth.

Linkin Park. I have nothing good to say about them either.

However, the last i checked they are touring & recording a heckuva lot more than i am, so....
 
I can't stand Disturbed.... And I have NO respect for them either.......

2nd that motion. thank goodness it appears they have taken a hiatus. the local rock station (105.3) here in SD seems to play them at least once an hour. along with Linkin Park.. i really dislike Linkin park..
