Points for cleverness I'll give you that.
Reading this forum are few things become abundantly clear. Abu and Artfag have the musical sensibilities of a plank. Many of the bands you say are crap are quite clearly some of the best, but if nothing else this forum is tops for a laff.
Finally, this is the music which actually DOES suck balls:
Usher (that's right girls you heard, I'd sooner rub my ears with sea shells then hear his boring egocentric bullshit) In fact you can lump nearly all r'n'b into the shit category
The Killers (posers)
Jet (wankers)
John Butler Trio
Grinspoon
Powderfinger (releasing the most bland repetitive music since 2000)
Jack Johnsen, Devendra Baneheart, Ben Harper, and any fuckwit whose musical talent consists of be able to play three chords on guitar, sit by a palm tree and pretend to be mellow and at ease with the world.
Simple Plan ( a perfect example of why modern day punk has the social power of bunch of protesting cockroaches)
And I'll think of more.....
