| Alternative Rock Radio is Ass
For whatever reason, I've been listening to a lot of alternative rock radio lately. These are my experiences. | | 1 |  | Imagine Dragons
ƎVOLVE
They play a number of their songs. Believer is obvious trash and Thunder could be fun but it's too damn grating and the best parts of it don't continue throughout the entire song. | | 2 |  | Portugal. The Man
Woodstock
Feel It Still was fun at first and it's still more tolerable than most of the garbage on this list, but damn is it overplayed. | | 3 |  | The Killers
Wonderful Wonderful
I'd much rather listen to any of their older singles than The Man... | | 4 |  | Francis and the Lights
Farewell, Starlite!
"May I Have This Dance (feat. Chance the Rapper)" - How...how is this song...so terrible? | | 5 |  | Walk the Moon
What If Nothing
One Foot has grown on me for sure, but I'm still not anywhere near interested in listening to the new record. A shame cause I was a fan of both their self titled and Talking is Hard. | | 6 |  | Red Hot Chili Peppers
Californication
Jesus fucking Christ, alternative rock radio dickrides this shitty band so fucking hard. You can't go thirty minutes without hearing one of their annoying corny tracks. | | 7 |  | BORNS
Dopamine
Faded Heart is whatever. Nowhere near as sugary as any of the tracks off Dopamine. Still hoping he can pull off another great pop record though. | | 8 |  | The Struts
Everybody Wants
...I get that 80s revivalism is really in right now, but do we have to revive butt rock? Seriously like...I'm not a 46 year old dad so this bullshit doesn't interest me. And holy fuck, why does the singer sound so...out of place? Every one of their songs is the same basic Bon Jovi bullshit. | | 9 |  | Dreamers
This Album Does Not Exist
Sweet Disaster, no bullshit, has to be in the top 10 worst songs I've ever heard. It's that bad. And it's not even that Sweet Disaster is such a mess or anything - it's that it's just such a lifeless, generic alternative rock tune that it's so offensive. | | 10 |  | The Lumineers
Cleopatra
Ugh...this band is just so boring. Ophelia is trash, Ho Hey is trash, just please let this band die. | | 11 |  | Cage the Elephant
Unpeeled
I get that Whole Wide World is a cover, but damn I swear with every new song the band puts out, the singer's vocals get all the more grating. | | 12 |  | Thirty Seconds to Mars
Love Lust Faith + Dreams
"Walk on Water" - ...is this song real? I feel genuinely embarrassed listening to this. Jared should stick to acting because this has to be one of the worst, most generic excuses for an alternative rock song. It's so unbelievably bad | | 13 |  | Vance Joy
Dream Your Life Away
"Lay It on Me" - this song would be nice if Vance Joy could sing. Like, holy fucking shit, did nobody ever tell this guy how vocally inept he is??? They just let him keep singing and encourage this??? His voice is ridiculously bad | |

11.08.17 | needs more Creep | NordicMindset
11.08.17 | Alt Rock stopped rocking a couple years back
it's all limp-ass pop crap now | grannypantys
11.08.17 | obviously almost all radio is crap
radio rock in particular though, has become very low testosterone | Shave
11.08.17 | yeah grim stuff | NordicMindset
11.08.17 | how did we let Imagine Dragons become the kings of 2017 alt-rock
times are dark | huskerdune
11.08.17 | yea, so much worse now than when creed was kicking around. | Shave
11.08.17 | creed had a couple good hits | NordicMindset
11.08.17 | at least Creed "rocked" harder | Shave
11.08.17 | id take creed or like fuckin breaking benjamin over any of this shit tbh | Shave
11.08.17 | agreed hard verm | Shave
11.08.17 | its 10 bucks a month lmao what are they spending their money on | Demon of the Fall
11.08.17 | Everything on this list sucks (apart from the couple I'm not aware of but whatever, they probably suck too).
Good list. | DinosaurJones
11.08.17 | The alt-rock radio station where I am can't go an hour without a Nirvana track. | Aerisavion
11.08.17 | Walk The Moon are fucking trash. Can’t wait for the band to die. | BigBlob
11.08.17 | Foo Fighters? | Dewinged
11.08.17 | Why would you do this to yourself in the internet age? | PistolPete
11.08.17 | Welcome to my life in Canada too. Their idea of "old school vintage alt rock" is nothing more than RHCP, Nirvana, and maybe an old Foo Fighters song.
Although, alt rock radio did introduce me to Nothing But Thieves, who are in fact an amazing alt rock band with one hell of a singer. So sometimes it works out. You should check out their new album if you haven't. | Gmork89
11.08.17 | "yea, so much worse now than when creed was kicking around"
Creed was great and the most unfairly shit on bands ever. | LethalPaintball
11.09.17 | 6 is the edgiest thing ive seen posted all year
anyway agree hard on 1 2 3 12 13 | runaways
11.16.17 | 6 ain’t edgy if you’ve ever had to hear Snow (Hey Oh), Californication, that one about standing in line to see the show tonight, etc. on repeat for hours. Then again, I could’ve just changed the station |
