What are some bands that just drive you up the wall and make you wonder "How did they ever get a recording contract?"
Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons. I like Oh What A Night, probably because Frankie doesn't sing very much on it, not so fond of the others. I love a good falsetto, not Frankie's screech.

Depeche Mode, Erasure, REM, any Brit synth pop/new wave garbage & Country music (the whole freakin genre).

You're hating on the Jersey Boys?!

I proceeded to throw up in my mouth.
I second Nickelback and U2. I (thankfully) hardly know what the Jonas Brothers are. Dave Matthews is high up on my hate list too.

I don't care for most of the bands that have been mentioned in this thread. Although every once in a while I'll hear a nice single from these groups as well.
Devendra Banhart, total wanker. Oh and vampire weekend, what kind of fukin name is that for a band, what a bunch of spoiled little brats, Anything that is classified as "Indie" is just some whining, no-talent, suburban white kids who want to look cool by being in a band. just utter fukin trash, worse than emo, thats right i said it, worse than emo. who else, panic at the disco, your right, they are trash, no talent there, P.Diddy, i cant stand pdiddy he's so up himself yet so gay looking. Pussycat dolls, trash, man i cant think of anymore, but there are so many, so much shit out there today. its depressing.
I'm not necessarily saying that they aren't entertaining or anything, but as far as musical ability goes, how in the hell did Fall Out Boy become so popular?
