Linkin Park and Papa Roach. 2 okISH bands with the worst singers in music history. Shit gives me headaches.
Trickhay on YouTube… Learned about him when he posted an ad on Craigslist looking for a singer for his music. He’s become an inside joke for my SO and I. I think my favorite is “hoop dance”.
Pink Floyd is underwhelming for a band commonly labelled as “prog rock”. Most of their stuff is forgettable, albeit Alan Parsons Project came off it, so I guess it’s not irredeemable if it inspired something genuinely good.
I went to see The Offspring and Sublime (with Rome).
Offspring was pretty good though the arena had horrible sound. Sublime was hot garbage with Rome singing. The only thing saved it was the crowd knew all the words so we were all drowning out his shit singing.
Tom DeLonge : Blink-182
Never hit right for me. Terrible voice. Nasally and whiny. Wanna be punk. Men in their mid to late 20s singing about the drama only a 15-year-old in high school would care about or experience. It was weird.
I had no issue with Billie Joe Armstrong and Greenday. I really enjoyed their career and catalog.
Old school blink (Cheshire cat, dude ranch) Mark and Tom had a good interplay, and we’re each suited to the songs they sang. They may still do that but I can’t listen to anything newer than Mark, Tom, and Travis show
Not quite the answer to your question, but Cafe Tacvba. Great music, lousy singer, like that guy says about Red Hot Chili Peppers. Jesus Christ.
Really surprised that no one’s mentioned Yoko Ono.
She’s really not that bad if you’ve ever heard Linkin park.
Is there a band called Yoko Ono? I ask, because I’m fairly sure there isn’t a singer.
The Plastic Ono Band… It is not good.
I posted it in reply to another comment, but I think this is worth it’s own mention.
Sweet… Jesus…
Saw it before, but never noticed the thumbnail before now. Couldn’t have found a more suitable one.
Puddle of Mudd and definitely Wes who’s last name I don’t give a shit to spell out.
Their 15 minutes of fame were long pass in the 2000s and they’re one of the shit pillars that came to be known as butt rock.
Their performance of About a Girl on Sirius is one of my favorite things ever. It never fails to make me giggle.
He tried so hard to blame it on a cold, lol. Then he tried I think at some point, making it like a parody?
No dude, you just suck that fucking bad. Stop making excuses.
How has no one mentioned Tom Waits.
He has some good songs, but his voice sounds like a alley cat with a stomach full of garbage who won’t let you sleep. I know that it’s the point for some ppl, but I can’t stand it.
I love his music, voice included, but if you don’t like the voice please listen to the early stuff before he got so rough. I honestly like those records better. The Asylum Years album collects a bunch of the good ones. ETA - or Ol’55 I think has so many good ones, including the namesake song.
Off topic but I watched him play piano and sing on some late night show a long time ago and oh boy did he look like he was on heroin, nodding off.
The Heart of Saturday Night is like a more palatable gravely lounge singer.
He’s on key and in tune though, same as Dwight Yoakum. You may not like their voice, but they are excellent singers.
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”
Smashmouth
Hey now…
