On the flip side, one band that I seriously have a hate on for is Billy Talent. Yet I loved Rusted from the Rain.
Rusted from the Rain? Don't you mean "Lustin' for Loraine"?

I really dislike Money by Pink Floyd. Not saying it ruins DSOTM for me, just saying that I wouldn't complain if that track wasn't there.

And while on the topic of the classics, All My Love by Led Zeppelin is a terrible song.

I hate The White Stripes but I don't mind Seven Nation Army. I thought I would post this even though it is the opposite of what the OP wanted...

I've always hated "Surf Wax America" from Weezer's first album. It almost ruins one of my favourite records, almost. Luckily everything else makes up for the one gaffe.

It sounds good, but the song title, OMG. I remember James Muretich savagely reviewed The Works album: "Goo goo, gaa gaa, goo goo".

I love the Live Aid performance!

In the stage show of We Will Rock You, they changed the words to make the song more modern, but that was also a great performance of the song.

I can't pin point the exact song. Probably "Right Behind You" by Our Lady Peace. But generally the Spiritual Machines album has ruined OLP for me. I can still listen to Naveed, but I just don't want to listen to OLP anymore.

This is the same song!

Offspring has some kick ass stuff, but also Get a Job, Original Prankster and Pretty Fly for a white guy...

I can't get into In View by the Hip, no matter how much I try. Their worst song ever.

Spoon solo (omg) starts at 2:12:

The rest of the album is sooooo good though. I just skip that song. Too bad it's just about the only one ever played on the radio or Soundgarden might get the accolades they deserve.

I wouldn't like it much either if I didn't know what it was inspired by. Pretty hard for me to dislike a song that a guy writes about the death of his child.

REM also refuses to play anymore because they hate it so much.

Agreed. Naveed was a solid album with some excellent songs, but they went downhill quickly after that. There were some decent tunes on Clumsy but most of it I wasn't impressed with. Any of their albums after that were just plain awful, with the exception of the odd song here and there. It's a shame.

I blame Chantal

The biggest problem with this album in general, I think, is that its incredibly compressed. That song in particular is over the top; you can hear it clipping.

It's completely silly. "Look, we made a reggae inspired song and we cleverly named it Jamaica without naming it Jamaica!"

I'm a big Zeppelin fan, but it is low on my list.

Tears In Heaven is an awful song, in spite of the sentiment.

On a different note, I'm always amazed whenever there's a thread about music on here because your musical tastes are almost always eerily in lockstep with mine, Dis. I usually don't post in these types of threads because of that reason; anything I was going to post was pretty much already posted by you. Also, stuff I haven't listened to that you've recommended in the past I've checked out and generally enjoyed.
