The Taliband

tiffyandthewall's avatar

i don’t really wish any band to break up, because i’m sure there’s someone out there that loves their music…
and besides, it’s not bothering me any that they exist.

googlybear's avatar

Guns N Roses…please make Axl Rose stop trying…

Tink's avatar

I’ll be the first one to mention THE JONAS BROTHERS! Omg I hate them, they are sooo annoying!

eponymoushipster's avatar

Nickelback is a good call.

Fall Out Boy is another.

evelyns_pet_zebra's avatar

The Bee Gees…oh wait, never mind!

Quagmire's avatar

I second the Jonas Brothers!

bcstrummer's avatar

Anything signed by Disney

photographcrash's avatar

creed or nickelback.. bleh

Dog's avatar

If Mchael Jackson is any indication then dying actually makes musicians more popular.

jeffgoldblumsprivatefacilities's avatar

Only one can die? Ok, how about Coldplay and Kanye West fight to the death. One dies, and the other is only severely maimed. I could live with that.

Tink's avatar

Also any rap/hip hop artist.

Ashalah's avatar

kid rock….....dude needs to decide if he is gonna be a rapper or a redneck

jeffgoldblumsprivatefacilities's avatar

@Tink1113 I’d be just fine without that entire genre. Just fine.

Ashalah's avatar

there are alot of good rap/hip hop people out there. Not all rap is lil wayne an lil john. What about a Tribe Called Quest? Madlib? Wu Tang? Outkast? Biz Markie? There are still some good ones out there!

Tink's avatar

@jeffgoldblumsprivatefacilities I’d be more than fine without it.

avvooooooo's avatar

JONAS BROTHERS!

Also Miley Cyrus. Not a band, but a spoiled little brat who needs to go. Local word is that when she was filming whatever she was working on over on Tybee Island she walked into a bar and ordered a drink (she’s 16) and they kicked her out on her ass in the street.

jeffgoldblumsprivatefacilities's avatar

@Ashalah I’m still gonna pass on rap/hip hop. More for you.

Ashalah's avatar

fair enough

Tink's avatar

@Ashalah I also heard she was pole dancing, and her dad said she was “Just having fun.”

eponymoushipster's avatar

@Tink1113 she’s a skank ho. she’s the next britany spears, who is another “band” that should disappear.

sjmc1989's avatar

Eminem I mean really he just irritates the shit out of me! I have never heard one song by The Jonas Brothers but just looking at them ruins my day! I just don’t get them at all. Yeah and I’m with @Tink1113 and @jeffgoldblumsprivatefacilities I really don’t like that whole genre either.

Tink's avatar

@eponymoushipster Its sad how so many pre-teens think of her (Miley) as their idol.

avvooooooo's avatar

@Tink1113 She wasn’t really “pole dancing” because she didn’t swing around or go upside down or anything interesting like that. She just pretty much stood there shaking her butt and holding onto it with one hand. Not that great, but not that bad either.

Tink's avatar

@avvooooooo Same difference, she’s still a slutty ho.

eponymoushipster's avatar

@Tink1113 it is. she’s why so many tween girls are as slutted up as they are.

DominicX's avatar

I’d be fine without any screamo bands. Worst genre on earth and I’m sick of that whole emo depressed teen scene sensation. Emo/screamo can die out as a genre; fine by me. :)

filmfann's avatar

Guns and Roses
AC/DC
Aerosmith
Metalica
White Snake
KISS (Ugh, can’t believe they are touring again!)

jeffgoldblumsprivatefacilities's avatar

Same difference, she’s still a slutty ho.

Oh @Tink1113, you made me giggle.

photographcrash's avatar

I also wish brett michaels would go away. and take the rock of love girls with him.

eponymoushipster's avatar

@photographcrash don’t worry. with all that hepatitis c, they won’t be around long…

DominicX's avatar

@avvooooooo I probably drank more than Miley Cyrus at 16.

Who am I kidding “probably”? :P

avvooooooo's avatar

@DominicX But you probably weren’t bellying up to a bar in a public place and insisting you be served.

DominicX's avatar

@avvooooooo No, it was more “don’t forget to take some vodka from the liquor cabinet when your parents aren’t looking” ;).

ABoyNamedBoobs03's avatar

nickleback, AFI, My chemical Romance, Hawthorne heights, Greenday, any and all boy bands (yes, that means you ”blackstreet boys”… no you’re safe Beach Boys, you can stay too Temptations) a vast majority of female pop artists, anything that scratches and claws it’s way out of American Idol…. the list could go on but you get the picture…

mally03's avatar

White stripes!!!!

ABoyNamedBoobs03's avatar

@mally03 that’s insanity. Jack White is one of the most talent guitarists alive right now. you may not like their style of music but you definitely have to give him props for pure talent and creativity, the guy knows his stuff about music.

quasi's avatar

could ‘almost any pop-county music made after 1999’ count as a “band”?

tiffyandthewall's avatar

@ABoyNamedBoobs03 “anything that scratches and claws it’s way out of American Idol”

i’ve never heard it put better (;

J0E's avatar

@filmfann you just listed off some of my favorite bands!

ubersiren's avatar

All these new groups that have the dance/hip-hop/pop vibe. Whoever sings that “shorty on the dance floor” song, and anything thing that sounds remotely similar. Like the Black Eyed Peas new stuff… It’s such C.R.A.P! The lyrics are so shallow, and the melodies are predictable- almost non-existent. I hate that shit beyond belief. Have a little creativity, will you, music industry?

Also, another vote for Nickelback.

Blondesjon's avatar

NICKELBACK!!! The only problem is that if you cut off one of it’s Kroger’s, three more sprout up in it’s place.

ABoyNamedBoobs03's avatar

@Blondesjon “heyyy heyyy I wanna be a rockstaaaarrrr!!!!!”

yes you do chad kroger, yes you do…..

filmfann's avatar

@Tink1113 and @J0E If something happened to all these bands, there wouldn’t be an American Pie type song about it. It wouldn’t be a tragedy. If you missed hearing AC/DC type music, you can always turn on the blender. It sounds about the same.

blastfamy's avatar

@Dog, only when people think the celeb in question to be sleeping with little boys. Unfortunately, neither Nickleback nor the Jonas brothers apply… Thank god for that :)

J0E's avatar

@filmfann Those bands are the foundation of rock n roll, you might as well wish away the entire genre.

Tink's avatar

::EVEN BIGGER GASP:: No ROCK?!?!?!

sandystrachan's avatar

Metallica or atleast get James back on drugs and booze Megadeth, G&R , Nickleback, Trivium . Damn the list is too long

filmfann's avatar

@Joe

Foundations of Rock And Roll:

Bill Haley and the Comets
Buddy Holly and the Crickets
The Beatles
Phil Spector
The Rolling Stones
The Who
The Kinks
The Yardbirds
The Birds
The Doors
Bob Dylan
Jimi Hendrix

later:

Led Zepplin
Crosby Stills Nash and Young
Pink Floyd
Queen
ELO
Dire Straits
Traffic
Elton John

Anything after 1985 cannot be considered a foundation.

quasi's avatar

I wanted to add, although not a ‘band’ (or anything real for that matter), the crazy
frog, gummi bear, or any of those terrible singing sensations created for distribution
on cell phones need to go away. and as an extension of that, any song that has ever
been advertised in a ‘send a txt message to this number and type 1 for blah blah blah crappy’ commercial is highly suspect in my book.

efritz's avatar

Daughtry. American Idol phlegm.

buster's avatar

i wish Metallica died after Ride the Lightning.

J0E's avatar

@filmfann okay, fair enough, maybe not the foundation but still important bricks in the building.

cheebdragon's avatar

@JOE how can you hate Tool?

J0E's avatar

@cheebdragon I don’t hate them, I just don’t enjoy their music.

cheebdragon's avatar

@J0E there are tons of bands I don’t enjoy, but I don’t want them to die. lol, I’d hate to be on your shit list.

Tink's avatar

@cheebdragonId hate to be on your shit list.
LOL!

teh_kvlt_liberal's avatar

Every single post-everything, mallcore, metalcore, deathcore, screamo, emo, Slam, “groove metal”, 90’s bands plus Marilyn Manson, Cradle of filth (should’ve stopped at the first album), post AJFA Metallicunt, Cannibal Corpse, Red Hot Chili Peppers, AC/DC, and whatever rap you kids listen nowadays

teh_kvlt_liberal's avatar

And of course mainstream pop, but doesn’t everyone hate that?

DominicX's avatar

@teh_kvlt_liberal

Alright, I must know. What’s wrong with the Red Hot Chili Peppers? I mean, in general I hate rock, but even I like the Red Hot Chili Peppers to some degree.

teh_kvlt_liberal's avatar

I dunno I just can’t stand Anthony Kiedis’s vocals

DominicX's avatar

Well, it’s definitely different and I could see not everyone would like it. I don’t like too much of it. I remember a friend of mine was playing an all-RHCP CD in his car and I was like “I’m getting a little sick of that voice now”.

Tink's avatar

@teh_kvlt_liberal You are now in my shit list. #1 on the list!

teh_kvlt_liberal's avatar

Whhhhyyyyyy? :(
I feel so bad now, I’m going to cry (sniff)

Tink's avatar

@teh_kvlt_liberal Cause of your “list”- Every single post-everything, mallcore, metalcore, deathcore, screamo, emo, Slam, “groove metal”, 90’s bands plus Marilyn Manson, Cradle of filth (should’ve stopped at the first album), post AJFA Metallicunt, Cannibal Corpse, Red Hot Chili Peppers, AC/DC. AC/DC rocks! >(
EDIT- And Marilyn Manson??? C’mon!

teh_kvlt_liberal's avatar

AC/DC is okay
I just think they’re a little redundant especially after the Back In Black album

ABoyNamedBoobs03's avatar

@teh_kvlt_liberal they’re not the best band in the world, but you have to give them credit for creativity, and coming out with music that crosses genre’s like that.

AC/DC on the other hand, is purely awesome. if only for This song.

And Manson is too Evil to hate, it just makes him more powerful O.o.

and by 90s bands I hope you don’t mean the likes of Pearl Jam, Fuel, Smashing Pumpkins or Nirvana and the like! you’re killin’ me Smalls…

Tink's avatar

Thank you Boobs.

Tink's avatar

Also, M.I.A <——ugh! I HATE them with passion!

ABoyNamedBoobs03's avatar

@Tink1113 preach it sister. MIA is like the pop rap version of nickleback.

Tink's avatar

@ABoyNamedBoobs03 Just when I thought it couldn’t get any worse….Ugh! Blech!

DominicX's avatar

How does M.I.A. have anything to do with Nickelback? Personally I love M.I.A. She has the best sound and it’s so unique. Love her crazy accent. She’s even been accused of supporting Tamil separatist terrorism with some of her songs. I don’t know, I just find her awesome in general and definitely different.

Listening to “Sunshowers” right now.

teh_kvlt_liberal's avatar

All right I have to agree about MIA
Can we still be friends? :)

Tink's avatar

@teh_kvlt_liberal Its a possibility. :)

cheebdragon's avatar

Jane’s addiction.

@Blondesjon shakes his head sadly @cheebdragon ^^

Insane CLown Posse-my chemical romance-lil wayne-lil john-tpain-Any American Idol Star.

@Ashalah

I agree with all of those except for T-Pain and Kelly Clarkson. :)
