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.
When I heard the Tool cover of No Quarter and found out the original was by Led Zeppelin I gave that version a spin too. My disappointment was immeasurable and my day was ruined.
Reason being that I really like the Led Zeppelin vocalist. But his performance on that song is just unbearable to me.
The Tool cover though, absolutely amazing!
Florence Foster Jenkins singing the Queen of the Night's aria.
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.
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.
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.
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".
Pink Floyd is underwhelming for a band commonly labelled as "prog rock". Most of their stuff is forgettable, albeit Alan Parsons Project came off it, so I guess it's not irredeemable if it inspired something genuinely good.
I have a perhaps unreasonable dislike of The Best Day by Atmosphere.
