Yeah I know terrestrial radio (am/fm) is on the outs with a lot of folks, but what artists, songs--heck even commercials make you reach for the dial quicker than a cracked whip?

It’s hard for me to say music I hate. I really define more what I like rather than what I don’t like.

Personally, I’m not very much into Billy Strings and jam bands. While I appreciate the technicality, the constant shredding and lack of refrain becomes tiring.

Anything grunge. Absolute death knell for rock sales . Depressing and can't even tap your toe too it. Yeah I'm really old.

Hootie and the Blowflies or anything by Darius Rucker. Any version of Long Black Veil. Ricky Skaggs and almost all bluegrass. Anything by Reba Mcintyre. Mainstream country music. Lee Greenwood. But I never listen to channels that play those, anyway.

Oh yeah, Bob and Tom or their ilk.

I never listen to radio and haven't for MANY years, but I've enjoyed reading everyone's comments. Threads like this are cool ...
Just to weigh in ... Queen, Springsteen, Pink Floyd, Hair bands, most Jam bands, Rush and grunge bands never did it for me.

Generally-speaking, my favorite music is / was generated by British artists ...

Music is never worth arguing over ... that is why Baskin-Robbins has thirty-one (31) flavors.

As a general rule I don't like any rock from the 70s or 80s with rare exceptions like Pink Floyd. Journey, Rush, Kansas, Bob Seger, Van Halen, etc, all that is terrible to my ears. Don't care for hair metal either. No to Motley Crew, Def Leppard, Poison, Twisted Sister. My rock fandom is the 60s and stuff after 1989.

Who hates Cult of Personality?
I also think the song is overrated. It’s a very mid song. I think the tone of vocals clashes with the frequency of the guitars. Don’t understand why people love it so much. I definitely wouldn’t say it’s BAD per se, but it had some really odd engineering/production decisions. C+ song
