More crap and overrated bands.
Coldplay are an English Alternative Rock band from the early 2000's. Their Biggest hits are Yellow, Viva La Vida,Fix You, The Scientist,Speed of Sound and heaps more extremely mediocre pop rock songs that we all have heard splattered all over the radio. They are still around and are just as popular as ever. This band is the biggest example of what happened to mainstream rock in the 2000's. They are pretty much U2 with a slightly better looking lead singer. Not hard considering how butt ugly Bono is. The band just keeps on churning out hit after hit but the songs are so bland, generic,boring,weak and forgettable just like the rest of the mainstream pop songs that make up the charts. That is the audience they are after, they don't give a **** who they're pleasing as long as they're in the charts.This bands Head Full of Dreams tour is the third highest selling tour of all time. The Foo Fighters are an alternative rock band from the 90's. We all know their hits Everlong, Monkey wrench, The Best of You, Learn to Fly, My Hero, The Pretender and heaps more boring alternative pop rock songs. Dave Grohl is a very good drummer and he's also a good guitarist and singer but this band is so boring, weak bland and boring that I just cannot even pretend to like them. The only song I like of them is Everlong and their cover of Baker Street. The rest of their discography is just absolutely boring and weak. They are played on the radio and on tv so much that it's unbelievable that they are the only popular rock band still even cared about in the mainstream so people give them allot of credit for that. All Foo Fighters need to do is put out a crappy album every few years and just expect to receive a grammy award in the mailbox. If this band had made an album full of songs that were just as good as Everlong I wouldn't be saying this about them at all. I would consider them a very good band but their most respected album the colour and the shape from 1997 has Everlong right next to the terrible hits Monkey Wrench and My Hero. Not very consistently good material. Amazing that the drummer of Nirvana went on to form one of the most popular modern rock bands of the modern times and that he was the singer and guitarist. All that doesn't make them an actually good band. Thanks for reading, plenty more to come. |

There's no such thing as Scooby Doo 1. It was Scooby Doo. I hate it when people do that, make an original film change its title once there's a sequel. "I think Terminator 1 was better" or "The Hangover 1 was fun". A list of other things I hate to follow, lots more to come. Thanks for reading. Where did that kangaroo come from? I ****ing TOLD the guy to keep them out of sight! All part of the Asian plot to make us all two feet shorter. You know what they're up to. Ask [MERIT]....

More crappy overrated bands.
U2 are an Irish Post Punk and alternative rock band that started in the 80's. With huge hits like One, In the name of love, With or Without You, Beautiful Day,All I Want is You, Mysterious Ways,Vertigo, The Sweetest Thing and ****loads more. The band is still around and extremely popular even though they aren't chart toppers like they used to be in the 80's and 90's. Their 360 tour is the highest grossing tour of all time which goes to show how popular they still are. The Edge's reputation as a bad guitarist is as talked about now as much as ever. He clearly isn't holding the songs together with his guitar playing. If you listen to their songs especially with or without you you can clearly hear that the bass is the backing music for the entire song while The Edge just plucks on 2 notes repetitively which doesn't even add anything to the song. Sometimes The Edge's guitar playing does actually add something to the songs but even then he's really not doing much. You could say that even though U2's songs are not guitar heavy The Edge's light and simple playing compliments the bands sound on their songs. Without the delay effects and other pedals his playing would probably sound like ****. U2's songs are really not very strong. They are pretty bland and boring which is the main reason why it's so damn popular. The band are so rich that they just gave away their album Songs of Innocence for free as a free download in 2014.They knew they wouldn't make much money off of the sales anyway compared to what they'd make from touring. If the industry were healthier and file sharing wasn't as common as it is today they certainly wouldn't have done that. U2 even performed at the Grammy's in 2018 which goes to show that they are still somewhat relevant. This band is very overrated. I remember when Vertigo came out and I liked it. I certainly don't like it now that I've had a better musical education. If you search U2 on Google, under the People Also Search For heading the first band you see listed is Coldplay which makes the comparison of the similarities of the two bands that I made even more true. This band sucks but is really really damn rich and successful because they appeal to the casual listeners who can't even tell what is quality rock music or complete garbage. Train are an american pop rock band from the 90's. Their most popular hits are Drops of Jupiter and Hey Soul Sister. Not much to say about this band but I remember how long this band went without a hit single and then in 2009 they just appeared out of nowhere with the hit song Hey Soul Sister. That's the kind of crap you need to fart out of your ass and package and then release to make it on the charts these days if you're a band who actually plays instruments and sings. |

I'm also a fan of R.E.M and Pantera I also Like The Doors and Jimi Hendrix those are my two favourite 60's rock acts. Some more bands that I like are The Cranberries, Tonic, Urge Overkill, The Pixies. I even like pop solo artists Like Bryan Adams and Richard Marx. The Brian Jonestown Massacre or ok, I only like their album called Give It Back. The Dandy Warhols suck but I like their hit Bohemian Like You. I'm definitely selective of which bands i choose to listen to and I'm not easily impressed. I focus more on quality rather than quantity unlike some of my friends. I sure wouldn't listen to a crap barely metal band like Lacuna Coil and the version of Atout le monde Cristina Scabbia did with megadeth was ****ing worst than the original they shouldn't have bothered with it. I know it's random but that band just came to my mind. There's still plenty of bands to mention. |
