Basically, bands that you really want to like because they play a certain kind of music you otherwise find enjoyable but somehow they don't click.

Radiohead - Blame his voice. Can't stand it. I tried btw.

The Raveonettes - I gave up sometime ago (I tried Steve!!), but for a while I was hoping they would eventually move out of "anemic Yeah Yeah Yeahs and The Kills Clone" mode. Nope.

See now F I know you don't like Yorke's voice but I REALLY like Atoms For Peace stuff. I forgot to mention them on my favorite albums of 2013 too.

For me it's um... Eureka Machines... (Steve is going to kill both of us now..) I have tried. Because they remind me of The Clash and of course I worship The Clash but I can't get into the most of the songs. Although there are times when I will play Everyone Loves You because that one is pretty cool. *runs and hides now*

PS I do love The Raveonettes.

I liked the first 2-3 albums from raveonettes and went to see them at the beginning of this year.
gotta say, the concert was quite boring, and so are theirs latest albums :-(

The world is neither fair nor unfair - It's just us trying to feel that there's some sense in it

Radiohead - Thom Yorke, nuff said...

F., we must be the same person

Muse - I tried! But there's Matt Bellamy, Matt Bellamy's voice, Matt Bellamy's lyrics, Matt Bellamy & Matt Bellamy

Oh gosh I woke up to coldplay this morning. I almost smashed my alarm clock radio. Our radio stations suck over here. And Raven you really don't like Yes? Not even Roundabout?

Sisters of mercy after 1985 (floodland and vision thing). As much as i adore the first and last and always i can't stand what came after it. And the teeny-goth of "Lucretia my reflection" drives me mad.

One good thing about music, when it hits you feel no pain
So hit me with music, hit me with music
