Definitely Steven Seagal in that reggae song he did. This one.
I will upvote but I do not dare press the link. Yikes.
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.
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.
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.
Really surprised that no one’s mentioned Yoko Ono.
Is there a band called Yoko Ono? I ask, because I’m fairly sure there isn’t a singer.
Not a good singer, for sure. Here’s her wikipedia page, and if you want to hear her “singing”, check out the Beatles documentary “Get Back”.
Did you honestly think from my comment that I didn’t know who Yoko Ono was?
I was saying that whatever noises she makes, she isn’t a singer. Therefore she doesn’t qualify for a mention in the “worst band or singer” category.
I couldn’t tell, so the gamble was either I get whooshed, or I help someone become one of today’s lucky 10,000. I guess I got the former, lol.
The Plastic Ono Band… It is not good.
She’s really not that bad if you’ve ever heard Linkin park.
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.
Ahh. The licorice jelly bean of music.
“Gross… here, try it”

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
But claims that we the best music…I am now disillusioned.
Another one
Congratulations, you played yourself.
I posted it in reply to another comment, but I think this is worth it’s own mention.
Sweet… Jesus…
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.
Easily the lead singer of Kings of Leon. That whine in his voice makes me want to chug bleach.
Hi there.
Rebecca Black.
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 journey for sure!
It’s so goddamn janky that I was floored Safe As Milk was normal 60s fare.
Guns and Roses in '91 or so. God I loved them so, every song. When we got a chance to see them in OKC, with some band I’d never heard of, Crashing Gourds?, something like that.
We were tripping acid and the crowd was wild, should have been fun. They came out 2-hours late, screamed shit into the microphone, beat their instruments and left. Sometimes I couldn’t even tell which song they were playing, that bad.
And worse, the opening band, who later became wildly popular, was apparently booed. We were late and had missed them.
Crashing Gourds?, something like that
Smashing Pumpkins?
Probably not.
Yeah I saw them around that time and they were awful here too. Also the venue had really bad sound.
Smashmouth
Hey now…
Because unless you saw them live, where the lead singer was probably drunk, they’re a legitimately good band with a solid discography. It’s not even a Nickelback / Creed situation where the common consensus is to shit on them - they’re just overexposed for their few top-100 hits.
“All Star” in particular is a self-aware criticism of people who give people shit for listening to Smash Mouth.
Yeah. Live at an Edgefest. It’s was bad. Really really bad.
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.
When I heard the Tool cover of No Quarter and found out the original was by Led Zeppelin I gave that version a spin too. My disappointment was immeasurable and my day was ruined.
Reason being that I really like the Led Zeppelin vocalist. But his performance on that song is just unbearable to me.
The Tool cover though, absolutely amazing!
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.
