Figured we should do a "Top 100 Worst" this time around. Anyway:
The world of music has blessed us with talented musicians whose compositions put a smile on our face. At the same time, there have been many people in the past and present who although like to consider themselves "musicians", are actually devoid of talent.
Post up to three musicians you absolutely can't stand. Add some comments about said person if you wish.
1) Sid Vicious
(http://www.beertripper.com/OffTopic/RocknRoll/Sid_Vicious/Sid_Vicious_Sneer.jpg)
So the thread begins with one of the most infamous bass players of all time. Apparently Sid was so bad that the band made sure that his bass was unplugged during live performances. When even your own bandmates think you suck, you know there's something wrong.
Soulja Boy- This guy can't rap and has polluted the world with the word Swag.... :hatred:
3. Alannis Morisette. Just horrible. Some people like her, but I just don't see how. She should've just been happy with her "You Can't Do That On Television" fame.
Almost every talentless, dime-a-dozen, brainless, prepubescent, high-voiced, obnoxious, over-rated, asinine, soul-less, auto-tuned, god damn child singer I hear on the radio today! :hatred:
(http://i.imgur.com/QHsYl.png)
Especially this disgusting little wannabe who has the audacity to call herself an artist. She's about as much of an artist as Adolph Hitler was a philanthropist. Usually I go easy on kids, but when you know you suck and keep singing anyway, that just sickens me. Worst part is that in a few more years all we'll be seeing from the music industry is more high-voiced little s**ts using auto-tune to do the singing for them.
P.S. Yes that did used to say music "legend". I Photoshopped that horrid fabrication of the truth. I don't know why it said such a thing, but I'm going to tell you one thing. I'm listening to Freddie Mercury on full blast all night until I go deaf.
O-Town. A little known 'boyband' that popped up around 2000/2001, at the tail end of that teenybopper phase. That phase gave us NSYNC, Backstreet Boys, Britney Spears, Avril Lavigne, Hanson. Otown wasn't quite as popular, had some minor hits and faded away.
Most of the others are still around.
Off-topic a bit: I give Hanson credit. Even as a teenaged boy band, they wrote all their material and performed their own instruments. They've written some great material now as adults and are a pretty good indie-ish band.

You got that one right, Russell. Cringe inducing lyrically and musically. She should've stuck with dance music. Are you a fellow Canuck by any chance? :wink:
Anyway, my vote goes to pretty much any nu-metal band in general. Thankfully, that stuff is pretty much passe, but alas, we have a reimergence of teeny pop, awful hiphop, and pathetic "rock" music.... :hatred:
The Fall just didn't even try to play their instruments
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qoa-wtlC9Vg
The Shaggs drummer, for her complete inability to play in time with the other instruments
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=InpCzx5OQRU
Korn, especially the singer. I know this band is (or was) practically worshipped by many but I hate their songs. The music by itself might not be so bad (well, actually, it is) but, once that guy starts yellingsinging, it all goes to hell. Particularly obnoxious is that one song where it's just two or three minutes of him crying and screaming "I f**kING HATE YOU" over and over.
Insane Clown Posse. I remember my cousin Mark buying their very first album, just because of the novelty (hardcore clowns). He listened to about half of it and threw it away. It was that bad. Yet, somehow, twenty years later, they're still at it! And they haven't gotten the slightest bit better in all that time! And there are people who dedicate their lives to these a***oles! I keep waiting for the band to reveal that their entire career was a particularly cruel joke at their fans' expense.
Most modern "country". Modern country is completely soulless and extremely cynically designed to appeal to the "blue collar" consumer. Each album is guaranteed to include songs about: American pride/the American flag, supporting the troops, working in a factory/a retail establishment, driving an old car/truck, shopping at Wal-Mart, watching your adorable little kids play, and getting back at that darn ex. Country music these days is purely mass-produced and designed by a marketing team, even moreso than the crap that makes up the Top 40.
in my opinion "worst musicians" does not = music you personally don't like. for example I can't stand Dream Theater but I concede they are technically excellent musicians

Are you trying to claim that Korn and ICP are "technically good"? :buggedout:
Anyway, music, like any art, is completely subjective. "Good" and "bad" are different for each listener. In my case, technical quality doesn't matter. The country music I listed above may be fine from a mechanical standpoint but it is artistically bankrupt. That makes it much, much worse than a band that plays off-key and out of time but
means it.
Furthermore, the very fist post said
QuotePost up to three musicians you absolutely can't stand.
:twirl:
okay fair enough, I suppose that is another way of looking at it. I'm not trying to be a smart ass or anything. just depends how you interpret "devoid of talent". I personally don't like Korn either but they don't strike me as a band who literally can't play their instruments like Sid Vicious, which was the example given... whatever though. I'm not going to think Nuno Bettencourt from Extreme - one of my favourite guitarists of all time - is a terrible musician because he now plays guitar for Rihanna, even though I can't stand her music...
Florence Foster Jenkins
Dam. This is AWFUL.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ptTvko32UVg&feature=related
My Chemical Romance - even by emo standards, they're intolerable
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOuSxal8pf4
I'll second the hate for John Davis of Korn. One, his singing sucks; two, he's just such a little b***h.
The Beatles
-Soulless drivel
-The Justin Biebers of their time
-The band that almost single-handedly destroyed Rock and Roll
Michael Jackson
-A very influential musician indeed, which is one of the reasons today's pop music sucks so much
-Generally thought of as a creepy child-molester, but then he dies and all of a sudden he is generally thought of as the second coming of
Christ.
Bono
-Pompous arrogant frontman for one of the most boring bands in the world
Interesting list so far.
1) Sid Vicious
2) Soulja Boy
3) Alanis Morissette
4) Rebecca Black
5) O-Town
6) (Insert random generic Nu-Metal Band here)
7) The Fall

Go ahead and pull that one off. I was really just on a tangent about the state of the industry in general. An actual person or group should occupy the spot.
I'd go ahead and say Led Zeppelin are pretty bad. Most disagree, but I find them painfully dull and uninteresting.
Also: Limp Bizkit are pretty damned bad as well.

yeah I think you might be on your own there. John bonham is frequently voted the best drummer of all time. Jimmy Page, Robert Plant and Jon Paul Jones always figure high in best-of lists for guitarist, singer, and bassist respectively. even when voted for by other musicians...
as for The
Beatles... well, that's an interesting choice
Lady Gaga. She's a thief with no ounce of originality. The scary thing is, people don't care and continue to buy/like her music. She got everyone fooled :bluesad:
Billy Ray Cyrus.
Ugh.

*high five* It's mostly Robert Plant. Replace him with someone who could sing instead of shriek and Led Zeppelin would probably be listenable.
fair enough if you don't like his voice period, but of course Plant could sing without shreiking...

All well and good, but I'd put all 3 members of Rush up against all 4 members of Zeppelin. And, Rush would kick their respective asses, routinely and daily.
And, I will say this: although I dislike Zeppelin, Bonham is a beast. :wink:
Also, a nomination:
Rucka Rucka Ali--a rapper, who fancies himself an 'adult' version of "Weird Al", only without the talent, and infuses racism in place of 'jokes.' I like some of his songs, but he's pretty bad.

Limp Bizkit was already mentioned.
25) Axl Rose- He can't sing worth crap and drags Guns 'n' roses down!
Sorry but I'm going to pick apart this list.
Sid Vicious- Not really a musician more of a figurehead.
Alanis Morissette- Even if you don't like her voice, she is a talented songwriter.
Korn- Don't like Johnathan Davis as a singer, but the musicians are good players.
My Chemical Romance- Just because emo isn't your thing, doesn't mean they aren't decent musicians
The Beatles- Are you on crack? It's cool if you don't like them, but they are great musicians and songwriters.
Michael Jackson- Never liked him or his music, but the fact is the guy could sing.
Bono- Douche, but he can sing.
Led Zeppelin- This one just erks me! These guys are great players!
Justin Bieber- I hate the kid and it pains me to say this, but the little brat's got talent.
I agree with Rebecca Black, Insane Clown Posse, Limp Bizkit, and Axl as a singer (but not G'nR as a whole).
The trouble with any thread like this is that the true "worst musicians" are people most of us have never heard. Even narrowing it down to those who actually recorded and released albums you have atrocities like this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zDIDO9PTvXw
I could do my own Top 100 list of just bands like that, and that is just within the hard rock/metal genre.
However, typically what you get, and what you have here, is a list of the most overrated musicians because those are the ones everyone has heard. As much as I agree with the complaints about the current state of commercial music, you have to have at least a little talent to get on the radio. And simply by the nature of the word, the more overrated you think someone is, the more people there are who will disagree with you. Case in point: The Beatles.

To be fair to Sid, he was a performer, like performance art, he never claimed to be a miscian, if anything, the Pistols were a statement of 'anti-music' as it had become, stylised and stadium rock. It did bring rock back to it'0s roots, which, was people with something to say who happened to pick up musical instruments.
Led Zeppelin, The Beatles... :twirl: Led Zeppelin remains one iof the greats in my book, of course, I saw them live and grew up listening to them and The Beatles, so like any iof these best of/worst of lists it's more based on the age of the listener and their memories. But, I would stack any band before say, 1985, with any of what passes for music and musicians these days which mostly are pretty bad
I agree that once you did actually have to have talent to be signed to record deal and have your music played on the radio. But sadly, today we have artist like William Hung. Who to my knowledge is the first person in history to be signed to a record deal BECAUSE he was a terrible singer. It shows you the power of shows like "American Idol." The really bad part is that artist like Hung and Rebecca Black are so media savy, that their music has a better chance of being heard than some artist who have genuine talent. In Miss Black's case it was her father's money that got her music promoted. Sadly, money and sex appeal are other factors that go into making some of the worst music out there.

Thank you,very much. Very few groups WERE music but the Beatles were one.

The Beatles, like Led Zeppelin, Floyd, Sabbath, the punk movement all the way back when rythm and blues gave way to Rock and Roll and Rock and has led to the real soul less devoid era of today was never meant to be royalty, but, a relection of it's time. I think everyone see's it from their own perspective, Justin Beiber to me is no different from David Cassidy was to teen and pre-teen girls when I was growing up. I don't need to defend the musicianship of what can be heard, but, I will say this, todays music needs to sample from the era I grew up in and that says alot what is music and what is soul less and destructive of R&R and other forms in the future.

The Beatles saved Rock and Roll? Needless to say, I disagree. You seem to believe that your opinion is actually a fact, but alas there will always be Beatle hater haters. It's just ignorant times two.
:smile:
I think that considering their enormous impact on everyone from teenyboppers to musical scholars and the fact that 99% of people would disagree with your opinion, you need to put up more of an argument against the Beatles than 'the justin biebers of their time' and 'soulless drivel' . If you can actually say why you think they "destroyed rock'n'roll" then it would help your cause. I'd be interested to know, anyway...
I think rock and roll was pretty damn boring before the Beatles---if they destroyed it, then good for them!
they were certainly influenced by it. I highly doubt they set out to destroy it. tracks like I Wanna Hold Your Hand are very rock'n'roll
edit: just realised I was thinking of 'I Saw Her Standing There', but I wanna Hold Your Hand also applies...
they also did relatively straight covers of rock'n'roll standards like Twist & Shout etc...
it's a non-argument really!

I do think it's amusing that somebody could actually consider The Beatles as among the 100 worst musicians of all time. That's just silly. That's my general problem with trying to identify best and worst in music. It has nothing to do with hating the Beatles. Hate away, and may you live a long and fruitful life hating them. But among the 100 worst musicians of all time? That doesn't even qualify as an opinion.

getting back on track, I'll put Chris Brown on the list. he's the modern Ike Turner, plus he's just flat ignorant about the incident- didn't learn anything, didn't have any remorse, should burn in Hell until he learns his lesson.
Worst musicians might be about choices, and not ability: NICKELBACK and their studio musicians can play...
ugh :thumbdown: :bluesad: I don't like them.

Since lots of people buy their records, like they did THE BEATLES, there must be a corollary...??? :question:
no.

There's quite a few Nickelback haters out there and it's pretty easy to single them out, but I think it's totally justified. They are one of many who are a good example of what's wrong with popular music these days.

Getting back on topic, I don't think DIANA ROSS could ever sing much. I like and owned on vinyl a couple of her records; I like DIANA ROSS as a person. But man, she proved on American Idol she can no longer sing if she ever could:

sorry. p. u.
WOW NEVER!!!! She may have lost it a bit now ( I don't watch American Idol so not seen that performance ), but personally speaking I think she has/had incredible talent.

The Beatles
-Soulless drivel
-The Justin Biebers of their time
-The band that almost single-handedly destroyed Rock and Roll
Michael Jackson
-A very influential musician indeed, which is one of the reasons today's pop music sucks so much
-Generally thought of as a creepy child-molester, but then he dies and all of a sudden he is generally thought of as the second coming of
Christ.
Hmm.. So, Micheal Jackson and the Beetles are some of the worst musicians of all time. Interesting.
I just have to ask one question, what's Bizarro World really like?
few years ago some random guy in a record shop I was in started barking on about jimi hendrix being a poor musician. this guy's main point was that jimi hendrix couldn't play the same thing twice? that was an odd one...

Well, what I actually wrote was that I don't think she "could ever sing much". :wink:
As
great and
numerous as their hit records are, I can't stand
THE SUPREMES pretty much either, and it is not a hatin' on
DIANA thing at all. Like I wrote, I like 'er. I'm just over them. And her solo records.
THE SUPREMES had a sound, no doubt, but the singing is not that great...
DIANA was the weakest singer of the three.

Because killing him would make that person to get life. :wink:
Wow, you are a real F***in' genius, did you come up with that on your own?

No need to be insulting, that's a real Gene Simmons move.
I'm not crazy about the approach some are taking. Disliking a band is one thing, I know not everyone loves the Beatles or Led Zeppelin (I'm not a big Zeppelin fan myself [but I also haven't really properly explored their music]) but to fail to acknowledge their importance or abilities is ridiculous. Anywho...
Can we all agree on Creed? And can we start numbering these? I don't know what number my choice would be.
Answered you by PM so as not to pollute the thread further.
I can't believe some people have the audacity to put THE FIRST SUPER BAND (led zeppelin) as one of the 100 worst musicians of all time. Just because you may not like their style doesn't mean they are bad. Can you play a 12 string guitar? Can you play the drums in a song with a broken rhythm? Do you even know anything about music? I'm sorry but the stupidity is just overwhelming... Michael Jackson!!!????? OK, he tarnished his image during his career but my god, he is the king of pop. The guy could sing, write songs, and put on a show (a great dancer as well). I thought the discussion was worst musicians of all time, not lets be a rebel and try to look cool as we name obvious great contributors to the music world as our worst musicians of all time. I'm not even going to start on the Beatles and why they shouldn't be on this list, we would be here a while.
HERE ARE SOME ACTUAL HORRIBLE MUSICIANS THAT DESERVE TO MAKE THE LIST:
Nicki Minaj
Ashlee Simpson
Avril Lavigne
Kevin Federline
Starship
Baha Men
David Hasselhoff
Aaron Carter
Milli Vanilli
Because I understand what the thread is about (worst musicians, not musicians you don't like and think are the worst) I will now list musicians who probably aren't in the 100 worst ever but I think are horrible.
Lil Wayne
Good Charlotte (basically any band that just ripped the punk image go ahead and list them here as well)
Nickelback
Drake
Hole (I REALLY HATE COURTNEY LOVE)
Justin Beiber (I know he was listed before but I can't tell if his target market enjoys his music or not)
