Him, Bob Dylan, and fucking Neil Young. I had to sit through days and days of entire playlists of those fuckers played at loud levels at my last music industry job becasuse the bosses loved them. At the end of a whole day of bootlegged concerts from the 60’s and 70’s and rare b sides from any of the above, I was ready to punt an entire litter of puppies or kittens, take your pick, through the Rose windows of Notre Dame. And I love animals and history. If every last copy or trace of those three guys ever singing could suddenly vaporize from the face of the earth tomorrow and I would probably heave a sigh of relief.

Bob Dylan
Neil Young

And I can explain my dislike for Zep.
They were so overplayed in my day, that even now I have a hard time with them. Several of my friends played the albums over and over and over.
Immigrant song was in a movie I saw recently, and I found I could sit through it.
Maybe I will reassess.

Springsteen
DMB

Queen

Rod Stewart. He always sounds like he's yelling not singing. And his voice is like fingernails on the chalkboard.

The Beatles. Never did like them when they were big, still don't.

All pop country
Rush
The Who
Beatles
Jimmy Buffett

The Bee Gees before disco, during disco and after. Just grates on my nerves!

Pearl Jam......



.

I agree with Eminem and Rush, but I also never got the craze over Prince.

Bingo. Thank you.

I can always tell when Coldplay is on, because all their "music" sounds the same. Insipid is the only word I can think of to describe them.

This deserves a thread all its own. I'm a city kid, but loved Randy Travis, George Strait, etc.

But, if I put on a "country" radio station these days, all I can say is "What the hell is this shit!?" What happened to country music??

Seriously.

Really? Or do you just have fatigue over the 5 standard songs get played to death on the radio?

I was listening to a Spotify playlist recently and was just thinking how incredibly talented they were with songs like:

Ten Years Gone
Thank You
Tangerine
In My Time of Dying
Out On The Tiles

You NEVER hear them on the radio anymore. Ever.

you may be right. I never want to hear "Whole Lotta Love" or "Black Dog" again in my lifetime, but the songs you listed aren't too bad.

I listen to mostly classic rock. I always turn the radio station when music from these come on:

Bob Dylan
Neil young
Bruce springsteen
Led Zeppelin (Robert Plant sounds like he’s getting ass-raped)
Aerosmith
Pearl Jam (Eddie sounds like a constipated alcoholic)

There are a lot of others, but these are just terrible. One band I ALWAYS listen to is Pink Floyd.

I dislike a lot of stuff that is overplayed, more than a band in a genre; think "Stairway to Heaven" and "Freebird" for starters with "Money" and "Time" right there in the running.

Same for other stuff from Zepplin, the Who, Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd, Skynyrd, and plenty of others.

But at the same time, all these bands have some great songs that I really enjoy.

Beatles. Very overrated. I do like parts of Sgt. Pepper but that is all.

Forgot about
Neil Young
Dylan
Beatles, post garage, hippie stuff.

Love Led Zeppelin but for some reason I could never figure out I can't stand "The Doors"
