Don't get the love and praise Colour Haze and YOB get from the SR community. I've tried them so many times over the past 10 years,but they totally suck ass in my ears. i listen to plenty of bands too and they just never impressed me yet they get so much love.

Colour Haze just plain sucks!!!! Terrible vocals and really boring riffs and really boring just about everything.If I want to listen to real 70s psych I would but screw that wannabe band. Meh.Hipsters on SRL dick riding on Colour Haze way too much.

Any popular bands you hate but everyone loves? Vent here.

Ghost is weird,not sure I get them either. Heard one of their songs recently,and didn't sound that heavy to me. Sounded like a new wave band trying to play like Iron Maiden lol. Must be the synths. Music is ok but the vocals Meh.

Swear, no matter how good the music is,it's always the vocals that make it or break it.

YOB vox are plain awful despite the music being top notch.

I can't get into Windhand

and I CAN'T STAND Uncle Acid, nor the Deadbeats. But it took seeing them live to make me feel that way

Going on record: YOB is Love.
Some of the best SR/Doom gigs i've ever seen. I've seen a few.

Yob post The Great Cessation. Everything after that has just been a tired rehash.

The Melvins. Damnit, how dumb is that. Sure I love Lysol, and a couple of other tracks, but the rest just doesnt do anything. FFS

Yeah. That confirms it. Not saying i love every single EHT SNIVLEM release, but that admission confirms you as a fuckling idiot.
