The 'Bands I don't Get' thread (4 Viewers)

They’re boring? I find listening to more than 1-2 songs by them to be a real slog, let alone a whole album. Also, “Easy” can go and fuck itself, what an annoying song.
Fair enough, fair enough. I don't find them boring, and you can blame Lionel Richie for Easy.
 
I like them, but the last album I really listened to was king for a day.....and that was 25 years ago.
I've listened to the albums since but honestly, yeah, more or less the same. I do find everything post King for a Day verging on boring.
 
I have a complicated relationship with Patton. He's done song great stuff but other times the sound of his voice an instant turn off.
That new Mr Bungle thing is pretty rocking though, but Introduce Yourself will always be he best FNM.
 
Will Oldham, I don't get him. I was just listening to I See A Darkness there because I have a CD player again for the first time in years and I took my CDs from my parents house and I'm listening to random selections.

Currently listening to Chris Cutler & Fred Frith Live in Moscow, Prague and Washington. This is great, I love it. One of those albums that opened the door for me to free improv stuff. It's not quite as out there as I thought it was when I first heard it but whatever.

I think he's great but I wouldn't go as far as to say that It think any of his albums are especially amazing. Definitely a 'best-of' kind of artist.
 
I think individual albums by Oldham are amazing (I See a Darkness, Superwolf, Master and Everyone are my favourites) and some are dreadful. His catalogue is a minefield.

He’s consistently great live though.

I really like his stuff. Years ago I remember playing The Palace Brothers and someone declared it sounded like the squeaky voiced teen from The Simpsons.

I couldn't really argue and that observation has been stuck in head ever since.

I can hear it. I was going to say Joanna Newsom and Lisa Simpson but I checked again and I don't hear it so much now. Listen to how bad this is
