What?! RHCP are awesome (well, their older stuff). REM and Radiohead are also pretty damn good.
The most irritating band ever?

No. Take a step back for a second, now look again at REM. See? Ok, think about it a bit more.

Junkie scum from California who pretend to be cool all the time because they play awful funk influenced garbage, perpetually getting airplay because of this despite their songs being utter *******. And those two albums are the only two I've played relentlessly to death myself. They have about 2 good songs between them, Under The Bridge and Californication. Both of which I would be very happy never to heard again in my lifetime.
The Pigeon Detectives.
I can't believe that no one has mentioned Scouting For Girls so far.
The only enjoyment I have got from any Kings of leon track is singing the line
"Woooah oohhhhh all our songs sound the saaaaaammmeee" through out them when they came on the radio at work.
Because as has been said, they are SO dull, its unreal.
I literally cannot tell the difference between some of their songs, but thats me, but I can see why other people like them.
Which brings me on to my point for those dissing Muse, they are the only band who I've found I can introduce to people who simply dont listen to albums or anything that isnt on the radio and they actually enjoy them, and then go on to buy their albulms, and go to their concerts.
My Ex wife, would only listen to flouncy factory pop and then I got her to listen to Muse, then she would only listen to flouncy factory pop and Muse, and it wasnt because thats all she had heard, she just didnt like anything else.
The woman I lived with after that was the same, she'd never heard of them, and her musical tastes were dictated by what she heard on radio one, I gave her My muse albums to listen to while she was out and about, she loved them, and became an instant fan.
Same with my wife now, She had never heard of them, despite having extremely wide musical tastes and being a competent guitarist and very good pianist and singer , I had them playing in the car on our first date, she now worships the ground Matt Bellamy walks on.
Friends, people I've worked with, even my 62 year old dad, every one I've introduce to them all think they are good or "great".
Sometimes people just like music because it sounds nice.

Chris de Burgh.
Runner up... Despite loving some of their earlier stuff to death, I would have to vote Marillion. Their last album, Happiness is the Road had me cringing, not even fit to play in elevators. TBH Marbles only had a couple of tracks (the first and last) which really interested me.
Winner though = The Wurzels. (Now see who doesn't spend the rest of today humming Combine Harvester and I Am A Cider Drinker...).

I saw these twice at Sandy Glade Caravan Park and they were awesome.
First thing I noticed was the 6000 watt PA system which was Cerwyn Vega and then the announcement about not letting kids in or if you are easily offended.
The Wurzels came on and I thought I was listening to a southern version of The Macc Lads.
Very rude, very funny and very entertaining.
It's not the Pigeon Detectives, although they are equally if not more annoying. It's The Wombats the guy was thinking of.

U2, Coldplay and The Red Hot Chilli Peppers all annoy me. At least the RHCP have a couple of decent tracks, but in general their music winds me up. The first two....ugh....I can't bear to listen to them at all.

+1 for Coldplay
Their music has the same effect on me as that episode of Father Ted with the priest who is depressed and then Father Ted puts on Shaft, then he gets depressed again on the bus when Radiohead comes on.
That's exactly how Colplay affects me. Total overblown, pretentious, energy sapping, lung deflating, atrophying, mind numbing crap. Listening to Coldplay just makes me devoid of all energy afterwards. It should be banned from the BBC like Gloomy Sunday was, not because it makes people kill themselves, but because it destroys productivity.
Chris Martin is also a total gimp to boot.

They get runner up from me. There are some good songs but almost every song they have is just banging on about California with flea making stupid faces. To top it off I can't stand the singer's underbite or his voice.
"California, Californiaaaa, California Californiaaaaaaa"
*puts gun to temple*

It's not so much the band that are annoying, nowadays they are just pumping out generic rock with no substance. However Bono is one of the most hypocritical, pompous people on the planet, living in castles, buying hotels and flying his hat on a first class seat when he forgets it, yet telling the working man he should be giving all his money to africans.
