    So many....

    Pretty much anything by Adele, Pink Floyd or Cold Play.

    I fucking can't stand Adele. The most tedius repetitive songs I've ever heard.

    No correspondence will be entered into this one but a fair part of the Foo fighters back catalogue sounds pretty similar and tedious to my ears . I think a decent part of their success is due to Grohls nice guy/everyman persona .

    I hate to agree with this post but I kind of do. Foo Fighters live are fucking epic, one of the best shows I've been too, but a lot of their stuff is pretty similar and I tire of it pretty quickly listening to it in the car etc.

    Anything by Dire Straits. Boring, soft middle of the road music that belongs in waiting rooms or elevators.

    Foo Fighters. Bland and boring, and Dave Grohl is a massive tool.

    Just because I heard it in the car.

    The Foals. Liked their first song but everything since sounds exactly the same, so now I don't like their first song

    Agreed.. and the just the ludicrous hype over her music is vomit inducing.

    Dire Straits, Aerosmith, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Coldplay ( the AB captain loses marks for going to their show ) ....

    I also have the temerity to believe that Eric Clapton is about as far from God as is humanly possible.

    ....and as it is that time of year mentions must be made for 'Snoopys Xmas' The pogues song, Mariah Carey's song but not 'Last Xmas' by Wham. That's a great tune.

    Adele is not made for me, so don't care about her at all, and never have to listen to it. Likewise Coldplay is bland soft rock, the whole thing is not really me, so pretty easy to avoid.

    Yeah, it's not the exact theme of the thread but a good oppotunity to have a quick bitch about how irritating she is.

    If anyone brings Tool into this conversation they are dead to me.

    A bit severe, but I know what you're getting at - Eric just gets a bit boring pretty quick.

    For some real heresy, and don't get me wrong - I really like a lot of Jimi Hendrix - but, the further he gets into some of his wailing distorted guitar solos, the more they just sound like noise to me.

    Just to keep it local, I have a lot of time for Dave Dobbyn, hate hate hated DD Smash. That piston wristed gibbon who played drums, Rooter or whatever his name was - I refuse to google it cause I just know he's the type of drittsekk that cares about these things - irritated me no end.

    That is all, as you were.

    Hendrix to me is the equivalent of Don Bradman compared to the rest. I hear what you're saying but NO ONE even thought of doing the crazy shit he did first.....totally changed rock guitar.

    What's more I'm pretty sure they'd agree with you.

    A useful analogy - as a NZer, I would have wanted to see Bradman make a hundred - but, then get him out. No need to rack up 300 against us Don! 🙂

    Drittsekk? Snakker du norsk?
