I don't blame you. Considering they're made out of industrial vomit.

Green Day, Foo Fighters, Nine Inch Nails.

Industrial Vomit, we've just found a new genre!

Tool and Muse. And Radiohead.

I don't hate them, but they just don't do much for me.

Radiohead's older stuff was good (Karma Police, Creep), but their newest album sucks. It scared the **** after me when I listened to it. I regret buying it.

I know that they sold out with their second album, and that makes them a bit less respectable, but even though some of their songs are "predictable", I still like them. Predictable doesn't have to be a bad thing.

I agree with everything you said, and yes, predictable can be a good thing sometimes, you can always depend on The Foos

I'm cool with the Foo Fighters. They make decent music while retaining some integrity. They don't shamelessly pander to the masses like a lot of other bands or acts do.

That said, you're never going to find much musical/compositional depth or variation of ideas in their music. Like The_Rocker says though, that predictability makes them pretty dependable.

Korn, Limp Bizkit, Linkin Park, for starters. Which should not be construed as not liking rap metal, as I do like Rage and Stuck Mojo. Boring knows the constrains of no genre, IMO

I can't even think of Radiohead as a rock band anymore. In their current format their just another dance act that I won't ever be listening to.

Does Marilyn Manson count?

I used to like his older stuff but lately it's just been so tired, saw him supporting Rob Zombie and it didn't do anything to change my mind on him.
