I am surprised by this list! A very diverse list of hate as well

I didn't say I hated anyone's music, and wouldn't use such a word anyway. A few of them I like some songs by, but I'm not into them enough to listen to their albums, not even a greatest hits, or can only tolerate them for 1 or 2 songs at a time (REM). Some I've heard their albums, because my relatives played them or I heard them in the neighborhood and wasn't really into it (Maze, Isaac, Bobby), except a few songs. I can listen to Crosby, Stills, Nash, & Young as well.

The Beatles (I like a few songs from each album, but if we're talking about the albums as a whole, the only ones I've been able to get into all the way through are Revolver and Please Please Me).

The Rolling Stones

The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill (for reasons mentioned by others in this thread)

Janelle Monae

A lot of "prog rock" from the 70s

Sorry I was exaggerating when I said "hate". I know what it's like because everyone I know seems to like Janelle Monae, and it's not that I hate her, I just don't find her appealing.

The 20/20 Experience Part 1- Not only does Part 2 actually have more songs I enjoy, Part 1 is simply a decent album that the media was trying to push as though it was sequel to Thriller itself. Overrated to hell and I can't see the hype. Unorthodox Jukebox is better.

I agree. I liked the 2nd one better. The first did not move me enought to buy it, but the 2nd CD I got for 8 bucks for the christmas sale at amazon. Most people do like part 1 though.

Wilco -- A.M. and Modest Mouse's first record. Didn't really get into them.

There's a tonne of 00's albums acclaimed by the Pitchfork demographic that I never got into, and I don't think it much matters.

Joni Mitchell's Court And Spark is meant to be a seminal album, but it's never gelled with me.

I'd actually rather listen to 'Dog Eat Dog' from her allegedly dodgy eighties period...a far more enjoyable listen to me!

Keith Sweat. I like 1 or 2 of his songs, mostly for the music. Other than that I've never dug his voice and singing style to want to listen to an entire album, or to listen to him on purpose. He's one of those people I'd turn the station when he came on.

I like his first album,but I can't listen to him alot His voice becomes too whiny after awhile.

I think he's related to another singer from the 1970's

Trout Mask Replica - Captain Beefheart. And I'm a Frank Zappa fan (he produced it, by the way) .

exactly this.

Ah, definitely not, I was thinking pre-2000s albums that were still remembered.

98% of all Rap and Hip Hop and modern R and B albums like Rihanna and Usher, lacklustre singing, no instruments, swearing, nonsense lyrics and skits. Who buys them and who acclaims them is beyond me.

mostly, the so-called modern "masterpieces" released since 1994, especially of the "alternative rock" genre(?) (Saint Ettiene, Yo La Tengo, Mogwai, Wilco, overrated borefest like that)

surprisingly I dig Radiohead, not a fan, but I dig'em

oh and Kanye

This one was also a major disappointment for me after CrazySexyCool, even though it sold 6 million in the US alone and won Best R&B Album at the 2000 Grammy Awards.

I tried out Mariah's Butterfly again today but it just doesn't work for me, I can't understand why it is her most loved album when it's basically a long list of dull ballads!

I like Butterfly a fair bit, but I think it's a much weaker album than both Daydream and Music Box. It seems to me that Butterfly was the point where Mariah fully embraced the 'hip, hot, and happening' side of urban contemporary music, and that's curious because it's also the first album where she finally broke free of the meddling of Tommy Mottola. So in this case, getting more creative freedom resulted in a much blander, more commercial direction for MC imho. Then, with every consecutive album I just lost more and more interest.

.

^Yeah, the story is all that, but if you listen to both albums, there isn't much difference. Honey and Breakdown has some male hip hop vocals but that's all, the rest is very similar with AC ballads and some R&B midtempo (Daydream already had those with Always Be My Baby, Long Ago & Melt Away) and both feature a "house/dance remix" of an already existing track. To me Butterfly is just more of the same. It's really the lyrics and video of Honey and the fact that Puff Daddy produced it that made it seem she "reinvented herself"...

Yeah, speaking of Nirvana, the whole thing is just over the top, the whole Kurt Cobain image and suicide just managed to keep Nirvana as a legendary band, and the song 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' a sacred song.. It's all about image in my opinion.

Nevermind just feels like another punk rock & grunge thing you'd hear once in a while, all the songs just sound like those punk songs... Kurt's voice is hugely overrated, and the guitar work is just so much overappreciated.

I never much cared for Nevermind, but In Utero is an amazing album.

Thriller

Purple Rain, probably havent played it decades.

The Wall

Pretty much anything after 2005.

1. MJ creeps me out. But, at least Thriller was able to overcome the creep factor for me: This, however, couldn't. I just didn't like the album.

2. Radiohead's "OK Computer". Thom's jarry and barely listenable voice along with harsh sounds over a melancholy canvas just didn't work for me.



3. Nine Inch Nails's Hesitation Marks. Boring songs, boring vocals.



4. This woman has never put out a good album in my opinion. I tried... I really tried, but her music sucks and her voice is meh.




5. MDNA . I can't figure out why anyone likes this thing.




6. Here's where I commit a cardinal sin . Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon



A coworker of mine used to play this in our shop CD-player when we worked the graveyard shift. I swear to god, this thing has put me to sleep more times than I can count.

All things considered it's my least fav Madonna effort as well but I don't think it belongs to this thread as it's not even popular among the fans and it went completely unnoticed by the public.

Don't mean to sound like I'm jumping on some kind of Janet hate bandwagon, but I've never got much into any of her acclaimed albums (Control to Just For You). Oddly, I do like the ones before and after that 1986-2001 period, lol.

That album is called All For You.

I'm just saying it before someone else gets all internet-angry and tries to give you grief for misremembering ONE word.
