I don't dislike any of those bands, I own a lot of their albums (and keep buying them), I enjoy individual songs and bits of songs... but I can never quite totally get them.
Metallica. Ride the Lightning blew my teenage mind. Master of Puppets was a big influence for me also. They went downhill Justice onwards.
Smiths. As I get older I like them less. I had a breakdown many years ago and I swear they played a big role in pulling me through that. I just don't know what happened to the man who wrote the poetry because he isn't the man we refer to as Morrissey.
The strokes -why would you put something out that sounded sooo shit as your first album? (Then I saw them live and they were wicked, cementing my feelings about their early recorded output).
Despite countless wonderful reviews and having seen him live twice, he still sounds like a shit version of Elton John to me.
I've never heard of him.
Nirvana
Pearl Jam
Incubus
Pendulum
And most of Led Zeppelin...
Sorry!

I'm not locked in here with you, you are locked in here with me.
(I'm saying this to myself in a funny voice....)
Never really liked anything by them, just about okay with the singles. Ear grating.
not_the_dj said: I haven’t made the effort but what I found odd about DT is how people describe them and when I hear them they don’t seem to sound like the descriptions. Just too modern metal for me, whatever clever stuff is going on I can’t get to because I don’t like the sound.
(I know richardhomer will strongly disagree
I'll add Van Morrison, for both of the same reasons.

Fair dues, wouldn't have expected to see some of those bands in this thread as I think of them as quiet accessible. I can see how aspects of Vedder and Plants singing styles can be annoying though.
Steve Vai, appreciate he's an incredible guitarist but I couldn't listen to a whole album of his unlike Satch!
I'm a bit of a late convert to Vai, but I still find a whole album at one go a bit of a struggle. I never really got Satriani - I saw him live... the first third was great, the second third was just more of the same, and the last third bored me to tears.

My worst habit was getting into an album for a band, then collecting all their albums OR loving a bands debut and keeping buying them OR hearing one song thinking "this is the kind of thing I like" and buying it because there was nothing else around. I paid good money for albums by Pigeon Detectives, The Enemy, The Ordinary Boys... oh AND buying albums without hearing anything off them based on good reviews...
No wonder when I cleared out my CD collection it was no issue to get rid of most of my 2000 odd CDs!!
I honestly think they could be my least favourite band ever after Kiss. Fortunately no one I know likes Kiss either.
