13. What are some bands you hate that everybody else seems to love? asked by Michelle from Facebook
First of all, hate is a very strong emotion, and I don't take it lightly or throw it around when it doesn't really apply. I try not to hate anything if I can help it, unless it's truly terrible, because we don't need that sort of casual negativity. Music is just music, I can take it or leave it without hating anybody or their art.
That said, there are some bands that, if their music comes on the radio, I will change the station.
Putting this under a cut because 1) this is dangerous ground, and I know it, and 2) I am legitimately not trying to yuck anyone's yums here, I'm just answering the question. Nothing at all against anyone who may love these bands.
Blink 182. I'm sorry, I just don't like them. From day one their music was the embodiment of everything immature, gross, and obnoxious that I can't stand about guys. Teenaged boys being obsessed with the messages in their lyrics was the absolute bane of my existence growing up, because they all acted like a bunch of assholes. I also don't care for whiny sounding vocalists.
The Red Hot Chili Peppers. I honestly can't pinpoint exactly what I don't like about their music, but there's something that just turns me right off when I hear it. If I could explain my reasons, I definitely would, but they're just not compatible with my ears for some reason or another. I have been told by many that my Californian card has been revoked (since they are the pride and joy of my state).
The Gorillaz. Again, not really sure why. People seem to be super in love with them but I just personally don't get the hype. Their music just isn't for me.
Thanks for asking!
