What GREAT bands do you dislike?

Radiohead. I loved the Bends and liked parts of OK Computer. I haven't liked a single thing they've done since then. Pretentious bunch of arse in my opinion.
 
But there are so many different parts to a song. For example someone might hate the vocals, or perhaps the use of guitars/drums/instruments so it would be good to get an insight into what aspects of them they don't like.

I hate slipknot, however i think Cory Taylor's vocals are awesome! Slipknot are to heavy for me.

Good use of selective quoting.
 
Metallica are great apparently, honestly never seen the fuss at all.

I like "One" but that's about it, most overrated band of all time quite possibly.
 
U2. Always win best international band blah blah blah.

I once heard chris evans say on virgin that even though they win all these awards few people can name 10 of their songs, even though they have had atleast 10 albums and 150 songs on them. I've tried that out loads and they can't.

Plodders.

Where the Streets Have No Name
Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For
With or Without You
One Tree Hill
Discoteque
One
Elevation
Beautiful Day
Vertigo
Sunday Bloody Sunday

No cheating, and bear in mind I'm not really a big U2 fan or anything. There's bands I like more that I couldn't name 10 tracks from.

As for me, difficult to say really. There's plenty of 'great' bands I think are overrated, but not many that I genuinely dislike. Maybe A Perfect Circle.
 
They did make some fantastic songs, then for some inexplicable reason disappeared inside Thom Yorke's sphincter (which explains some of the jibs he pulls) only to occasionally emerge with a fresh turd of music.

Other really successful bands I really can't stand :-

Metallica do absolutely nothing for me, but then again, never liked Metal in the first place, they bore me. Coldplay's another one, they can keep their bland Macrobiotic drivel to themselves in future and Keane, who wish they were Coldplay. Still laughing at their singer and his supposed 'Coke' habit. It was probably just a bag of sherbert he bought from the tuck shop, the little porker!
