What amazes me is that someone can HATE a band at all.
We're talking about a group of people who get together and make music. They don't tie people up and force them to listen to their music. Sometimes the band is "guided" by a labels A&R department more strongly than other bands. The end result is that bands are just people making music.
Where does this idea of HATING a band come from?
I can understand not liking a band. That means that the music they play doesn't appeal to you for whatever reason. To HATE a band requires that a strong emotion be stirred.
The only thing that bugs me about Green Day is that they seem to be on every radio station I tune into. I actually like the whole album American Idiot but I've gotten sick and tired of hearing it over and over again.
I've also been let down by the new Nine Inch Nails, New Order, and Gorillaz (this one is the best of the three) albums. I'm happy to see these bands still making music and making a living doing what they want to do.
If I don't like a song, I'll turn it off.
If I don't like a band I wont go see them in concert.
I find it impossible to be stirred to hatred by anything I've ever heard.
