What song makes you want to smash your stereo?!!?

So what song do you hate so much (like makes you want to smash you system hate?)

I didn't think it was to be taken literally. I assumed we were just going for some level above just plain "hate".

I hope no one is actually doing this! :D
 
Phil Collins - Yuck . . . What a sell-out!

You can't hurry love (Supremes Cover) and many more :sigh:
 
The day I wanna stick my d!ck in a vice, is the day I wanna smash my stereo... one time I had a night with a woman I really wish I could forget, but it still didn't make me wanna smash my unit....lol
 
Great Thread, we really needed this one . . .

Styx - Yuck Again!!!! The Kings of Poser Rock!

Dr Roboto

I'm Sailing Away & Many Others

This band gives me more respect for The Carpenters, David Cassidy, 1910 Fruit Gum Co. & Captain & Tennile . . .
 
What song

Nothing I can think of immediately, but there must be something. A friend tho', goes nuts when I play him Never on Sunday on a very good, noiseless MGM 78rpm mono....:banana:

Now that i've thought about it a bit more...

Not one particular song stands out, but one thing that drives me up the wall is horrible production quality in modern music. Or clipping, or overdone effects, too much reverb (yes, there is such a thing). so i guess my beef is with the production side of things. :)
 
Anything from:

Steely Dan - Aja

Makes me feel like I am at a mall shopping and I dislike shopping. Overplayed, boring and generic. Blah.

Anything by the Fine Young Cannibals. They drive me crazy, it's not a good thing.

Crocodile Rock needs to be on the list, as well. And Benny and the Jets.

(and over-driven bass, low dynamics, poor separation, cheap production...) :thumbsdn: :thumbsdn:

hahaa...yes!

:nono:

*edit*
actually, i have thought of another thing.

Bands in the 90's invented this thing called the "hidden song". They put this mythical track on their last song about 45 minutes into the song separated by silence.
I love the Deftones, but on their Around The Fur album, they had so called "hidden track". I was cranking the tunes one day, extemely loud, and passed out on the couch because i was tired. The last song was kinda slow and a bit on the low side. I woke up 40 minutes later, abruptly, to rumbling drums followed by head shattering distorted guitar and it literally scared the **** out of me. No, i didnt **** my pants, but i about had a heart attack and died at the young age of 20.
 
None.

However, there are PLENTY of songs that make me want to smash other people's stereos.
 
For the weak and feeble I will be more than happy to come over and smash your stereo or anything else. Your choice of 10 pound sledge, Louisville Slugger, crowbar, or the kitchen sink even (must be removed).

Definatly not supposed to be taken literally. I (and im sure noone else) on here, would ever smash their stereo unless their life depended on it!

Now, could you really smash someone else's gear if it came down to it? or would you smash their ceiling fan and run out the backdoor with the goods?
 
Robert Palmer - Simply Irresistable at exactly 0:55 when there's this sound effect like swords clashing. It hurts my head and I want to hurt back.

edit ... and anything by Huey Lewis

A few songs that make me want to unload a double barrel shotgun at whatever source they're coming from:

Terry Jacks, Seasons in the Sun

Debby Boone, You Light Up My Life

Paul Anka, Having My Baby
 
I agree with a lot of the 'stinkers' already posted, Red Hot Chili Peppers, anything from overplayed Greenday, Celine Dion, Coldplay (and all other male singers that sing like babies/girls - you don't have to get overly macho, but cut out the goo-goo whispery stuff).

How about that tune 'Takin' Care of Business' by ???. They got a guitar solo in that song that really sucks.. like seriously bad... just unlistenable.
