Unpopular music opinions

There's one for tv/movies, so I thought about making one for music.

Where to begin:

- Pearl Jam are boring as hell. Worst of the major Grunge bands. Don't care much for Nirvana either. Alice in Chains and Stone Temple Pilots were the best grunge bands back in the day, imo.

- Metallica's best album is Kill 'Em All.

- Opeth are boring. Don't see what's so great about them.

- Melodic Death Metal is pretty meh as a whole. I like a bit of Dark Tranquillity here and there and the first Children of Bodom albums, but other than that, meh? Gimme straight up death Metal any day.

- Obituary and Decide are average bands. Death and Morbid Angel were the best ones from the Florida Death Metal scene from the 80s.

- Guns 'N' Roses' sappy ballads are terrible. I only like their rocking tunes.

- I liked Chinese Democracy.

- AC/DC, while I certainly don't hate them, they're repetitive as hell. Dunno why so many people praise them. Most of their songs with Brian Johnson sound the same. Even themselves admit they aren't great musicians overall.

- Nightclub music such as House, Techno, etc. is all garbage and sounds the same to me. Dunno how people can listen to that trash unless they're drunk or high. I can dig some Electronic, though.

- I respect them and all, but never really cared for The Rolling Stones much.

- Rage Against The Machine are a ridiculous band. "raw raw fight the powaw!"... no thanks.

- Bands like The Doors, Eagles, The Monkees, America and CCR only had a few good songs. Couldn't care less for the rest of their stuff.

- George Harrison was the best Beatle. George > Paul > John > Ringo.

- Slipknot are garbage. Hell, Nu Metal sucks for the most part.

- Don't like Queen much. Yes, I've said that.

Most pop acts get a lot of unnecessary hate, I think. It's just music.

Bohemian Rhapsody feels like a chore to sit through and is not catchy to me.

That's exactly why they're only played in clubs, bruh.

Pop acts are useful for background music you don't pay much attention to, so I cant' say I hate them. Their point is being catchy. If I'm searching for music, I'll just avoid them.

I don't care much for Bohemian Rhapsody either, but man, if there's a song I don't like at all is Stairway to Heaven, despite liking Led Zeppelin a lot myself. Can't stand Breaking the Law by Judas Priest either despite loving the band.

EDIT: Yes, but I'm referring to people who actually put such music(techno, dance, etc) in their music players and listen to it sober while riding the train or walking down the street.

IMO Chinese Democracy was far and away better than both Use Your Illusion Albums.

Hotel California is way over played here.

Can't stand Prince

Michael Jackson has never impressed me in a fascinating way. Neither as an artist, nor as a person !

I don't like the Beatles or Michael Jackson, or Elvis.

Queen are overplayed.

I like a lot of pop music, but I can't stand Justin Bieber. Ugh. I do like Fifth Harmony though and can't wait to get their album when it comes out.

I find The Rolling Stones to be the most overrated band in history.

I also didn't care for U2 either.

It's less a matter of "your favorite band" so much as a band that some people treat as deities (like The Beatles or U2).

I have a rule against people insulting Pink floyd and Led Zeppelin.

I like the nu-metal genre, it gets too much hate and there's plenty of great nu-metal bands/songs.

These are all fairly popular opinions.

There's a difference between unpopular opinions and your opinion. Many people don't like Rap, in fact no one in the Metal community usually enjoys rap and viceversa, that doesn't mean it's an unpopular opinion. An unpopular opinion would be "I don't like 'Critically Acclaimed Musician'"

- I think that Staind and Linkin Park are criminally underrated bands.
