Room 101 - Music
 
The Stone Roses - Not bad, but never understood the drooling and fawning.

Jesus Jimmy - one a day, or we'll have nothing to think about tomorrow.

My hard to pick one-from-the-other shortlist would be Cold Play, Radiohead or the Verve.

I've thought about this a little bit more... It has to be Cold Play

Godawful over souling by the likes of Mary J Bilge (sic) & Mariah Carey.
Reality TV or talent show singers & boy/girl bands
Any singer/artist who thinks their appearance is more important than the music
Morrissey (interesting my autocorrect suggests mortuary)
Anything 'sung' by either Cilla Black or the worlds most irritating woman, Lulu
DJ who think they are musicians by playing other people's records
All Bagpipes
All steel bands

Any of the manufactured dross which comes courtesy of Cowell, SAW and their likes.

Japanese "talent". All out of the same mould. The girls look like 12-year olds dressed up as French maids, and are universally tuneless. The boys don't look or sound much different. Catch a New Year's Eve show with 100 or so of the talentless buggers all together--guaranteed to having you swigging back the sake to ease the pain.

Thrash metal - don't quite get it

Happy Hardcore, bloody awful, as leaking out of the windows of badly pimped Corsas the length and breath of the British Isles...

I just turn up the Thrash Metal to drown em out...

Elbow - one-paced, dreary dirges that everyone seems compelled to "like" to look cool. Probably not helped by having that bloody "throooowthooooseceeeertunswaaaaaiiiide" song played to ****ing death on TV.

I second your Coldplay.

If it pleases the Court, m'Lud, may I introduce the concept of "Gray Syndrome" - the peculiarly British phenomenon of the media hyping up the 'next great thing' to levels way above their talent. It's named after two of its greatest beneficiaries - the talentless Macy Gray and David Gray.

I thought David Gray was one of the blokes from Coldplay
