Don't agree with Skinny Puppy AT ALL however.

I wonder why.

I listened to Too Dark Park about a week ago, thought it was completely awful. And I really like industrial music, so there you go.

Kenny G and enjoyable should never be used in the same sentence.

If you reread it, they weren't.

Bob Geldof and Mick Jaggar are pretty bad alone but I don't understand why they're the WORST, seeing as though they make decent frontmen when you disregard their awful solo work. Everything bolded is completely and utterly wrong.

Also, I'm appaled that they left this piece of shit off the list. His story is actually kinda interesting; on General Hospital, wants to be the next Rick Springfield, inspired a Motley Crue song, sunk to obscurity after making a million old ladies go wetter then they'd been in years and make a million preteen girls think about him while they rode their bicycles.

Or if he wasn't such a arrogant douche I would at the very least take him off my hit list. I mean seriously, as if it's not enough you nerfed it out with your signature middle-aged white guy style, but adding your own crappy licks to a Louis Armstrong cover proves to me your a prick.

Funny as ****. Even when contemplating bad music they still fail. Proof that lists fail unless they are made by the folks at MB.

PS Whitesnake are bloody great.

^ fixed.

I wouldn't trust Kenny G. on any musical instrument.

I don't have a problem with most appearances on the list except Primus. They're not one of the best, but certainly not one of the worst either. I don't know enough Skinny Puppy to comment, but I feel like I'd probably disagree with their placement too.

EDIT: Actually, on further thought, a lot of those choices don't belong. I was just looking for things I actually liked, but really, while I dislike a lot of that, little of it could seriously be considered the absolute worst.

All bolded names have know business being on the list. There's further argument that could be made for many of those that are not bolded, but what is really disconcerting is the amount of true crap that did not even make the list in favor of artists who really don't belong on it in the first place. Where's Milli Vanilli?
