You guys interested in a magical trip?
I am always interested in people playing guitars with pointy headstocks.

I am sorry to keep bringing the teen girls from the disney channel into this thread, but I needed people to share my horror.

I hope everyone involved with this gets at least one of their feet run over by a car.

Idolator wrote about them too. My day got worse.

I hope they each have exactly one foot run over - that way, they can look down at the good one and recall how good they once had it before they went over to the dark side. :'(

I must respectfully challenge this nomination, Emma. This is music made for kids. My daughter loves it! And I loved shit music when I was a kid too.  I mean, let's face it, "Miss Lucy Had A Steamboat" is pretty awful, but would we include it in this discussion?

Let us pick on those who truly deserve it: Songs written for adults by adults that fail miserably. Like maybe Bob Seger's "Yellow Beret."

In terms of songs from the past few years, I think it is a tie between "Ladies and Gentlemen" by Saliva and "Let it Rock" by Kevin Rudolf. Both are the kind of awful songs you hear at sports events or in commercials for energy drinks but you could never imagine a human being actively seeking to listen to them.

I read somewhere that the Kevin Rudolf song was made the official anthem of WWE. That sounded about right to me. It's not my cup of tea, but when I think about what tune might fit with John Cena, The Undertaker, monster trucks, people with ink all over their bodies, etc., it kinda made sense to me.

They used it to plug a pay per view show they did not too long ago. It fit nicely, which was weird because they tend toward nu-metal (still) and other forms of buttrock. I thought it'd be way too poppy for WWE, but Fido was right.

In fairness, I heard about them on Idolator first.

But now their new song (as mentioned on Idolator in what I assume is the Samir's-day-ruining capacity) actually drags E-40 into their nonsense! This makes me angry, since E-40 is one of the greatest weird-voice/unpredictable-flow MCs going.

Saw this on Metafilter where one of the comenters pointed out that they all have Jennifer Aniston's haircut. I think the should rename their band "Jennifer Aniston's Haircut". Why not? There already is a band called "Natalie Portman's Shaved Head".

Oh yeah...almost forgot: this is really bad.

yikes, I'm not sure which part made me laugh more, where the song really starts or when the drummer starts singing.

Subcategory:  Can anyone name a GOOD band that has a number in their name?

I was thinking about this today, and could only come up with Three Dog Night, and even that's highly debatable.  Oh, and I guess The MC5 are on the good side.  But seriously, Matchbox 20, Third Eye Blind, Seven Mary Three, Finger Eleven, Sector 7-G, 311, Stroke 9, Eve 6 ... All terrible!  And all still getting waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much airplay.

Oh, and I was thinking about this as I changed the radio station from a channel playing "Sex and Candy" by Marcy Playground, and landed on a channel playing "Push You A-round" (I can only assume that's what it's called) by Matchbox 20.  Then screamed, in aggrevation, for a solid sixty seconds.

For some ridiculous reason I couldn't get Third Eye Blind out of my head last week.

This is on par w/ that BrokeNCYDE video. Painful to listen to / watch. I think one thing that these bands have succeeded in is making music that can completely offend punks.  As someone who loves GG Allin (he passed on), I had assumed it would be difficult for a song / genre to really make me fear for the future.  I feel like my mom probably felt after seeing my Black Flag "Slip It In" shirt.
