Puddle of Mudd and definitely Wes who’s last name I don’t give a shit to spell out.
Their 15 minutes of fame were long pass in the 2000s and they’re one of the shit pillars that came to be known as butt rock.
Their performance of About a Girl on Sirius is one of my favorite things ever. It never fails to make me giggle.
He tried so hard to blame it on a cold, lol. Then he tried I think at some point, making it like a parody?
No dude, you just suck that fucking bad. Stop making excuses.
Linkin Park and Papa Roach. 2 okISH bands with the worst singers in music history. Shit gives me headaches.
The worst recorded sound that I have ever heard was Kurt Cobain doing a mic check on a Nirvana live bootleg. Like a tortured cat with laryngitis.

The best thing about Nirvana is the Foo Fighters.
Sizzling hot take, lol
I call 'em like I see 'em. ;)
MOR version of Nirvana with a less dead singer so they can tour.
I wouldn’t say the Foo Fighters are any kind of Nirvana, let alone a MOR version. There are a lot of significant differences between the two. Probably the biggest one being that the Foo Fighters have a decent number of songs that are listenable from beginning to end, whereas Nirvana only ever came close once with Lithium, but still fucked it up by making the bridge vacant gaze, drooling mouth agape level stupid.
Trout Mask Replica by Captain Beefheart and his Magic Band. It’s essentially unlistenable.
It ain’t easy listening, but there’s nothing else like it. Pretty interesting how it was made.
Can’t agree more. I’ve got it in my collection but (after many years and many attempts) I simply can’t make heads or tails of it.
It’s a feature, though
It’s a journey for sure!
The Shaggs, but I enjoy them anyway.
Who needs musical talent? Or … y’know… basic knowledge of music and musical instruments?
Someone I know listens exclusively to the Beatles on the car radio. From all the Beatles hype, it should feel like a party, but instead it feels like you’re listening to jingle commercials during the whole ride.
Oh my God THANK YOU! You just described exactly how I feel about them and I’ve never been able to really figure out why they bothered me.
Probably doesn’t help that they’re so popular that their music was licensed and became synonymous with commercials.
Same thing with the doors and all things Vietnam.
Easily the lead singer of Kings of Leon. That whine in his voice makes me want to chug bleach.
Hi there.
My answer may not quite fit the topic. But I’ll share anyway.
In the late 20-teens, ZZ Top and John Fogerty we’re touring together. My wife and I saw them on the Jersey Shore (thanks VetTix!) and Fogerty opened the show and absolutely killed it. Then ZZ Top played and Billy Gibbons just didn’t have it anymore. We left early.
Several weeks later they played Jones Beach Amphitheatre and thanks to VetTix we got to go again. Once again Fogerty knocked it out of the park and Billy was just not up to snuff.
It was sad.
Interestingly, Billy Gibbons is featured on one of the tracks of Slash’s new album Orgy of the Damned. That track is the perfect fit for Gibbons and it holds together beautifully.
Definitely Steven Seagal in that reggae song he did. This one.
I will upvote but I do not dare press the link. Yikes.

My father used to book acts for a local club, and this guy played there once. He was awful. There’s no nice way to say it, he just really wasn’t very good. He played and sang songs that nobody recognised, and did it badly. To make things worse, he was paid, but went around with his hat at the end of the set asking people for money. Needless to say, he didn’t get a good reception.
About a year or so later, my father booked another singer, and it was the same guy going under a different name. The music night was popular, so there was a decent sized crowd already there when he walked in, and quite a few of them remembered him. My father asked him what he was doing there, and he said that he thought it was worth a try.
He was told to leave without playing, as the people who remembered him were already annoyed, and weren’t the type of people to suffer a fool kindly.
Scruffy the cat.
Just the shittiest music. They were bad enough that despite it being over thirty years since the single listen I had of the one album I had, they still stand out for being bad.
Corey Feldman’s Angelic 2 the Core is without a doubt the worst album I’ve ever listened to. It is not just mediocre or underwhelming, it is not just a “miss,” it is actively and unforgettably horrible. Definitely worth checking out.
Anything by Corey Feldman at this time is valid. Like, I know they say to follow your dreams and everything. But there’s also the part where realizing that you’re not fit for that particular dream and you could maybe try something else.
Someone should tell him.
I think he’d have one thing to say
“The joke Is on you!”
angelic 2 the core is one of the only albums i’ve ever listened to that is so bad i enjoyed listening through the whole thing. i feel like most people understand that feeling with movies, but this one album is the only time i’ve felt it with music.
Yup, it’s “The Room” of music
Ahh. The licorice jelly bean of music.
“Gross… here, try it”
Florence Foster Jenkins singing the Queen of the Night’s aria.
Anyone remember The Fall?
Rest in peace, Mark E Smith, but fucking hell that was awful, but in a brilliant way
Thanks man
Miraculously it kinda worked for the fall.
I saw Hole play a show years ago and their opener was this god-awful band called Imperial Teen.
Hands-down the worst band I’ve ever seen.
Now, if you ask about the most disappointing concert I’ve ever seen, it was the Smashing Pumpkins’ Horde Fest run. No one’s showing up to hear you mix bongos into your songs and experiment with your music live.
Did Imperial Teen play Yoo Hoo? I’ve always liked that song.
