Bands you despise but are epic when you're pissed!

[Motspur Hotspur]

Ok I'll kick off... Bon F*CKIN Jovi, I can't stand the poser-ing cock, I really can't and coming of age at the time the Metallica Black album and Nirvana were breaking through I do feel a total sellout but there I am screaming LIVING ON A PRAYER, WE're HALF WAY THERE...
Oasis - urgh - I think I threw up in my mouth a little - can't stand them and there ripped off melodies, it must have something to do with getting old and the fact all 'new' 'music' seems surgical and well total bollocks but if one of the many absconded beats (from other bands) appear on the radio I'm singing along.
WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME, I've lost all my musical principals!

KISS.

The epitome of commodified pseudo-rebellion. Their only saving grace was they weren't subtle about it. Oh yeah, and that shitty movie back in the day where lasers shoot out from their guitars.

Anyway, I bet they rock when you're pissed. Or did when you were.

Great thread.

I'll start with Led fucking Zeppelin. Stairway to Heaven is the most overrated song in the history of rock music. But when I am pissed...

The same goes for anything by Nirvana...they aren't half the band Pearl Jam are and took the credit for what bands like the Pixies did. But after a few pints I'll happily belt out Smells Like Teen Spirit (to lyrics that I have made up, because nobody knows the fucking words).

And fuck the Sex Pistols, they're gobshite until I am hammered. Give me the Ramones, the Clash, Siouxie & the Banshees and especially the Saints every day of the week. They are just better. Full stop.

The Eagles, boring as fuck. I hate them. Hotel California is garbage...until I am plastered.

Does 'No' cover it.........

I'm all 'Talking Heads' and 'Pulp', liked early Coldplay not so much now.....Verve, Stereophonics etc. and 80's disco back in the day (apologies all round) the genre of music that I can't stand pissed, stoned or sober is Jazz. also used to like 'Sweet Caroline' and 'American Pie' not anymore.

Interesting, I'm off to see Chic at Sandown Park in July, saw them a few years ago and they were epic.

I should elaborate. I don't despise them & I don't sing their songs when pissed.

But on the 3rd Saturday of each month between 9 & 10 pm, my wife wants me dressed in a tartan outfit with platform shoes singing "S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y Night". It sets the tone for the rest of the night if you know what I mean. And if I play my bass, like Woody, I get an even more resounding welcome.

I like to be fair do I don't discriminate between bands based on my levels of intoxication. My hatred of Paul fucking McCuntny is the same, pissed or sober. I saw Dire Straits live years ago, I was extremely squiffy, but they were still as fucking boring, just like Sting and Eric Clapton, Mrs D forced me to see both of them so I needed huge amounts of alcohol - not enough, there isn't enough alcohol in the world.

I don't even want to think about what you get up to with the tartan scarf!

Saw Dire Straits at Madison Square Garden back in my Uni days. Literally fell asleep, but that's because I somehow ended up there with a bunch of Deadheads. So the band was not the cause, nor was alcohol, if you get me.
