Masochist
03.15.09 | For once, I think we have a winner with this type of list. All of these artists are SURELY contenders for the title "Worst Artist Ever." Excellent list, good to see someone getting it right.
Runners up have to include At The Drive-In for their off-key singing, random song structures and for creating The Mars Volta after it died; mewithoutYou because its basically someone talking/shouting over guitars, which sounds just out of date; Dredg, because the singer sounds like he's trying too hard to be epic and instead sounds like he's trying to take an epic dump; and of course King Crimson, because they begat every single progressive album afterwards (though the second part of "Moonhchild" ain't that bad). |
BallsToTheWall
03.15.09 | This just happens to be a play on those other lists. Unlike them, this is pretty entertaining. All others should be gassed. |
Mendigo
03.15.09 | yeah, I forgot King Crimson, sorry. DJ Shadow should probably be here as well, as he didn't even make music by himself, just took music by other (real) musicians and mashed it together somehow. As if that would be what an artist does. |
SeaAnemone
03.15.09 | Superbest "superworst artists ever" list ever.
You may have forgotten a few though...
Sigur Ros- maybe the only music more boring than GY!BE. Icelandic music should stay in Iceland.
Elliott Smith- His whiny vocals make me want to puke. Supposedly his lyrics "mean something," but they're much too complex to actually listen to.
DJ Shadow- so overrated. This guy doesn't even make his own music. He just steals it from other people. Put him in jail. |
Mendigo
03.15.09 | harhar, was faster than you on DJ Shadow :)
but I just had to stop somewhere, honestly. Otherwise my head would've exploded because of all that shitiness. |
londoncalling457
03.15.09 | OMG HYPOCRITE YOU HAVE A LOT OF ALBUMS BY SOME OF THESE ARTISTS RATED AS A 5 OMG
OMG |

Gore
03.15.09 | so what music do you like, if you don't like any of that? |
fireaboveicebelow
03.15.09 | wow you guys are noobs |
jingledeath
03.15.09 | 19 made me lol
people are taking you seriously so you win |
myhigherpie
03.15.09 | Metallica actually would be on my worst music list.
you forgot Death, but then again, I can't really find anything wrong with them lol. |
burnafterbreeding
03.15.09 | Don't forget Bon Iver either. Overrated childrens nap time music. |
fruteefly
03.15.09 | this guy can't comprehend the most basic of music.... |
Mendigo
03.15.09 | btw, actually some of the complaints are taken from sputnikmusic-reviews (mainly staff ones). so they're officially legitimate opinions. |
Athom
03.15.09 | lol. when the first thing you see in the morning is something like this, you know its going to be a good day. |
SeaAnemone
03.15.09 | Yea, this list is a good example of what some reviews actually do... it seems like some people desperately attempt to perceive negatives in certain music, and completely ignore the positives for some reason.
...just another reminder to keep an open mind. It's fine to absolutely hate some music, but at least make an attempt to understand why some people might like it.
It just seems like at Sputnik, there's a bandoftheweek to bash on, unwarranted or not. (Are we still bashing RJA, btw? Or has it changed?)
(I get this is a joke, btw, a good one too.) |
AliW1993
03.15.09 | What jingledeath said
I actually agree with a few of the descriptions tbh but none of these are worst ever obviously. |
SeaAnemone
03.15.09 | (i.e. Underachiever's list) |
Lelle
03.15.09 | agree 100% with this list |
Metalstyles
03.15.09 | this is one of the best lists i've seen in ages. |
kygermo
03.15.09 | now this is funny. im just glad you didnt put prince in here because then we would have a serious problem we'd have to settle with fisticuffs. you forgot avenged sevenfold and disturbed btw. |
ClearTheLane
03.15.09 | lol mendigo didn't think you could do this. I'll mention which ones made me laugh, 3, 4, 7, 9, and 16. especially 16..
the "reasons" were the funny part of course, well done. |
Dethtrasher
03.15.09 | Agreed with Opeth, Cynic and good old Metallica. |
bastard
03.15.09 | best list ever, plus with some of the people taking it seriously, its hilarous. |
illmitch
03.15.09 | i'll be honest i actually agree with a couple of these. but all in all this list is hilarious. props! |
Spamue1G
03.15.09 | Worst artists lists all pale in comparison to this one. Congrats on the Boognish name-drop as well, that brought the lulz. |
Phrike
03.15.09 | Good call on 9, Radiohead is soo campy |
foreverendeared
03.15.09 | pretty much 100% of music is a big shitfest anyways. i'm surprised you were able to narrow this down to just 25! |
Baphomet
03.15.09 | haha sweet. You know this list is good when you start with Opeth. |
sspedding
03.15.09 | i concur with a lot of your choices on here pal. |
FattyKnee
03.15.09 | funny |
Phantom
03.15.09 | For this...You can have a cookie.
Lol at the people taking it seriously |
Lelle
03.15.09 | Who the hell is so stupid he takes this list seriously? |
CxLTxN
03.15.09 | I know that this is a joke but some of these are still horribly overrated. |
Tits McGee
03.15.09 | goddamn you are so fucking clever |
natey
03.15.09 | agree with 1, 4, 10, 17, 21, 23, 24 |
Captain North
03.16.09 | 11 is truth.

KittensandScorpions
03.17.09 | Lol @ "Bartokian richness" and that interview. |
Yotimi
03.17.09 | For the description of NIN you should add the soundoff for The Downward Spiral that makes fun of them for unforgivingly ripping off Johnny Cash's "classic" song Hurt. |
Mendigo
03.17.09 | haha, hadn't seen that soundoff o.O |
lglag
03.18.09 | No way do so many people actually support this. The Beatles? Iron Maiden? Tool? Opeth? Metallica? Pink Floyd? This guy is ridiculous, and this is a terrible list. |
Douchebag
03.18.09 | Iglag it's a joke list.
I'm yet to meet someone who hates maiden... |
lglag
03.18.09 | Hahahaha, I'm sorry, I take what I said back. I should have looked at your profile before commenting. You're obviously joking. |
HailToTheThief
03.22.09 | not gonna lie, I laughed at the nick drake line. and yeah, wolves at the throne room are no good. and you were actually right about mars volta. they have lost it. the rest of your arguments, well, what's their to say? I am the 49th comment after all... |
Chewie
03.26.09 | Chan's jealous |
marksellsuswallets
03.26.09 | I like how 49 comments into this people still aren't getting it... |
PuddleSwimmer
03.31.09 | Still the greatest list ever |
jingledeath
05.12.09 | ^i can't tell if you're being serious or sarcastic |
scyther
05.12.09 | Oh absolutely, they are commonly regarded as one of the worst bands to ever curse this planet with their existence. |
jingledeath
05.12.09 | only if it's a joke list |
scyther
05.12.09 | By the way pigtopeth, very nice profile pic, quite a gargantuan step in the artsy direction. |
Asiatic667
05.12.09 | This is like a reversed version of the list I posted the other day |
Lambda
05.12.09 | It's funny because you have GY!BE's debut on your best debut albums list. |
Yotimi
05.12.09 | ^Think about that for a second Magnum |
