I have to add, Super Furry Animals are one of them. I haven't checked any of their stuff yet... but for some reason I really don't want to. I've only heard a few seconds of one song on the Last.fm radio and I was like: "WTF?!"

I only started listening to them properly last week. Loving them so far.

Check out this:

...and if you enjoyed that one, give this a go:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5APBfWZFD84 (best wait till around the 1:30 mark before you judge that one)

...and if you hated both of those, then the Super Furries probably aren't for you, but hey, at least you tried. :lol:

The Beatles (I think they're overrated), The Smashing Pumpkins (His voice grates my ears and he looks like a neo-nazi), Sonic Youth. I'll post more later

Isn't it generally acknowledged that they're shite though?

Yes, but only by everyone who knows a wee bit about good music. Which sadly is the minority of the people.

That's true, but I sort of understood this thread to be about bands that are generally liked a lot by people who are into their music somewhat. If that makes sense. Nickleback would therefore be irrelevant to the thread, since most respectable music fans know full well that they're rubbish.
