Worst Band EverIf I was in charge of the B3ta fatwa department, we wouldn't be hearing too much from Simply Red in the future. Who's on your musical shit list and why?

SuedeBollocks to Suede, and more specifically, Brett Anderson.
Why did anyone buy their records? Who told him he had a voice worth recording?
He whines the lyrics rather than sings, sounding like a thirteen-year-old adolescent whinging and whimpering because his girlfriend has left him for someone better-looking with a bigger cock.
He also played the media with his whole "Ooh, I could be gay (but I'm definitely not), aren't I interesting?" schtick, when most people were simply trying to work out why he was such a twat.
"We're trash," he sang. No Brett, you're cunts.

Toby KeithMostly contained on the north american continent there is a great plague. One of my finest creations since the bubonic plague.. until it boiled out of control and is now infecting my current city of choice. It spread from the trailer park society in the south, first the walmart stores, then the rabid nascar fans.. now their music of choice.. "country." Now there is a ton of pop country that while bland is no worse than what the Beatles did in the past.. and then theres toby keith.. with such hits as "whiskey girl", "I love this bar", "beer for my horses", and "courtesy of the red white and blue"
Please don't help this twangy hick spread in whatever corner of the world you are reading this in.. or you too may end up drinking budweiser, driving a pickup, and realizing how maybe your sister is also the woman of your dreams at which point its too late the infection is complete.

Glenn BrancaI could say just about everything that has hit the mainstream since the late 1980's has been absolute shite because, well, it has been. But that's quite a wide brush, and it's difficult to be specific since nowt stands out as being more shite than the rest of it.
However...
The single most awful thing in my record collection is an utter pile of crap by Glenn Branca entitled "Symphony No 6". Now you may wonder how I came by this. The guy who reviewed it in Q Magazine said it was absolutely wonderful, so I figured WTF, let's give it a go.
So, I get's it home, fire up the hi-fi, put it on the turntable, and hit play. This is basically seven guys with guitars. They pretty much spend the whole of the first side playing "da-dum, da-dum, da-dum, da-dum" for 30 minutes. Turn it over, and the other side is more of the same. Now I can handle strange stuff. I can deal with some of Frank Zappa's worst excesses, and I rather like Sheila Chandra's "AboneCroneDrone" in which she mucks around with drones for 40 minutes, but quite what the reviewer saw in what Branca and his buddies were playing, I really don't know.
On the subject of reviews, my favourite was one which appeared in one of the newspaper-type music publications (NME, Sounds, etc... not sure which one it was). It was of a single released by Andrew Ridgeley and it basically read "Inside every one of us there is an Andrew Ridgeley waiting to come out. Fortunately, most of us take a dump every now and again and it's taken care of."

her cover of fleetwood macs the chain at glastonbury is her only saving grace.
also fand of types of music who wont listen to anything else. and immediatly hate a band if they hit the charts, or hate other bands just cos they not what you listen to, open your ears people listen to everything. some is good some are poor. but give it ago and dont eb aslave to your trends.

The Beautiful twatting SouthI hate music with no balls in it, and the BS haven't got one between them. Everything is just so fucking NICE in their world isn't it? Even when they put swearing in a song they make it so teeth achingly nice. If you're going to swear in a song don't make it sound like a playschool sing-a-long. Swears are dirty, and I for one want to keep them that way.
And everyone that listens to them is a cardigan wearing pansy who enjoy long walks and yorkshire terriers, this has been proven by scientists with graphs.

Twee for TwatsI vote for Fredrika Stahl for somehow managing to epitomise the currently fashionable brand of advert-friendly twee bullshit folk with her stomach-churningly pathetic rendition of Twinkle Twinkle Little fucking Star (as heard in the recent Nissan commercial), a song choice so embarrassingly precious that not even a decent singer could pull it off without sounding like a cringingly sentimental bell-end.
But a decent singer she is not. The “care free” style of singing that she is so self-consciously trying to pull off combines with the pained flailing of single syllables until she just sounds like a drunken 11 year old boy whose balls haven’t quite dropped. The result is nauseating in the extreme. Like gorging on an enormous My Little Pony birthday cake and 3 litres of Calpol.
Who buys this absolute guff? Presumably the same menstruating dullards that buy chunky faux mother of pearl jewelery from Dorothy Perkins, litter their IKEA coffee table with copies of Vogue and use a “deliciously quirky” cupcake fridge magnet to attach their yoga schedule to their Activia containing fridge. Safe, pseudo-emotive music for boring, emotionless cunts. I find it more irritating than the most manufactured of Cowell tripe simply for having ideas so far above its station.

I can't hear lyrics for some reason (possibly due to wax)Luckily my filthy mind fills in the blanks. You know that song by Beyonce, the one that starts with her pretending to be a Tellytubby (sp?) - "O-oh, O-oh, O-oh, O-wallah" - I'm sure the bloke sings "Your love-fur is chinchilla" in the rappy bit at the end.
I'm sure her growler is magnificent but are these really the actual lyrics? Really? Perhaps someone can correct me?
Is this even a relevant answer?

Not so much a bandmore a particular song: Save your love by Renee & Renata - I'm sure you could find it on youtube, I'm certainly not going to waste my time looking. I'm sure that Suzie Mathis on Piccadilly Radio in Manchester had it on a permanent loop.
Other than that, it'd have to be The Smiths.

Scouting For GirlsI nearly vomited the first time I heard "She's So Loverley". It is the most generic anti-pop song of the last few years being played by a bunch of boys in t-shirts and blazers. If they genuinely wrote all of those songs then I am amazed that anyone could be satisfied with themself at writing such inane drivel. For fucks sake, McFly and Busted write deeper songs than that!
