i think untitled black is by sault has some of the most unemotional bland pathetic excuse for vocal delivery ive ever heard. it makes the entire record sound like a corporate mandated album

couple of songs are decent tho, like wildfires and the one with michael kiwanuka, but everything else is plagued with uninspired lyrics and mindnumbingly boring instrumentals. on top of flat "i was going to close in 5 minutes but a customer just walked in" vocals

A support band for Madness. To call them crap would be an insult to all the genuinely crap bands out there. They went through crap and came out the other side. Then they went through whatever level of shitness that was and came out the other side. I don't think anyone applauded them, except when they stopped making whatever ungodly racket they were making and went offstage. I've never been more relieved to hear a bunch of unmusical talent-free potty-mouthed morons finally STFU.

I saw Hole play a show years ago and their opener was this god-awful band called Imperial Teen.

Hands-down the worst band I've ever seen.

Now, if you ask about the most disappointing concert I've ever seen, it was the Smashing Pumpkins' Horde Fest run. No one's showing up to hear you mix bongos into your songs and experiment with your music live.

Did Imperial Teen play Yoo Hoo? I've always liked that song.

There many songs that I hate more than anything by the Carpenters but they are the only band with bad songs that I've had the misfortune of listening to more than one bad song of. I can't stand the treacly, cutesy bullshit they put out.

I would also put the person who sang " ON THE WINGS OF LOOOOOOOVE" on here but I can't be arsed to look them up.

Trickhay on YouTube... Learned about him when he posted an ad on Craigslist looking for a singer for his music. He's become an inside joke for my SO and I. I think my favorite is "hoop dance".

I went to see The Offspring and Sublime (with Rome).

Offspring was pretty good though the arena had horrible sound. Sublime was hot garbage with Rome singing. The only thing saved it was the crowd knew all the words so we were all drowning out his shit singing.

Guns and Roses in '91 or so. God I loved them so, every song. When we got a chance to see them in OKC, with some band I'd never heard of, Crashing Gourds?, something like that.

We were tripping acid and the crowd was wild, should have been fun. They came out 2-hours late, screamed shit into the microphone, beat their instruments and left. Sometimes I couldn't even tell which song they were playing, that bad.

And worse, the opening band, who later became wildly popular, was apparently booed. We were late and had missed them.

Yeah I saw them around that time and they were awful here too. Also the venue had really bad sound.

I have a perhaps unreasonable dislike of The Best Day by Atmosphere.
