"The Worst Band of all Time"

The worst band of all-time is the one whose songs you don't like but have heard more often (by far) than any other band whose songs you don't like. I nominate Journey. There's nothing like being captive in a dentist's chair and being forced to listen (again, for the nth time) to Don't Stop Believin'. or some other drool put out by this band. All the whoa-whoa-whoa'in from the chair was not tooth pain but rather the pain of hearing that song.

A few of my favorite deliberately-bad fictional bands (not counting Spinal Tap):

From TV:





“Whisker patrol/whisker patrol/cat-scratch fever is the way we roll”
*Cat in band!




Obvious movie example:

Oh man this would be a fun topic.

Got to add Zach Attack in there.

Also The Beets need a mention. Oh e oh, killer tofu!!!

How has creed not been mentioned?

Creed, Nickleback and Nirvana off the top of my head.

That experiment intrigued me when I first caught wind of it, and wondered what it was like, but I don't think I've read a truly positive review. Ambition is admirable, but execution apparently didn't work so well.

Didn't the Lips start that project on a smaller scale, with fewer boom-boxes to synchronize, done outdoors?

That's pretty much exactly it. It was completely wrong to have it in an arena like Hilton. It was still rude of our students to heckle and boo, but at the same time I can understand it.

Cake is the worst band of all time.

The John Lennon album Plastic Ono Band (the most emotional work of his life) is a top 50 album discussion.


The band Plastic Ono Band as in the Yoko Ono audio noise vehicle definitely belongs in this thread.

The very one.
