How has no one mentioned Tom Waits.
He has some good songs, but his voice sounds like a alley cat with a stomach full of garbage who won't let you sleep. I know that it's the point for some ppl, but I can't stand it.

That guy is the biggest piece of shit, hope he rots in prison
I've watched so much german trash tv where people sing that nothing on this planet can shock me
Pink Floyd is underwhelming for a band commonly labelled as "prog rock". Most of their stuff is forgettable, albeit Alan Parsons Project came off it, so I guess it's not irredeemable if it inspired something genuinely good.
I have been fighting my way through the "1,001 albums you must listen to before you die' list, and there have been some truly terrible albums.
New York Dolls, debut album
Brian Eno, my life in the bush of ghosts
Marquee Moon, television
Slade, slayed?
Sugarcube, life's too good
Barry Adamson, Oedipus Schmoedipus
Animal collective, Merriweather Post Pavilion
Heaven 17, Penthouse And Pavement
And the worst album I have ever heard on my life, king of garbage music Lou Reed and his garbage band of notmusic and pretention: The velvet underground, The Velvet Underground & Nico
Animal Collective, there is an artist I felt like I got conned into buying
Pearl Jam's cover of "Last Kiss" can fuck off forever. Turned me off the band for a solid decade.
I despise The Macarena in ways I cannot put into words.
As general commercial acts... probably Tad? They were a proto-grunge band that did nothing interesting and vanished once Nirvana took off. They tried being 'heavier than God's balls' and utterly whiffed at out-heavy-ing the then-struggling thrash-metal market. Honestly, not even Slayer thought they could top Reign In Blood, and it wasn't until 1994's apparently fantastic heroin glut that albums like Jar Of Flies and When The Kite String Pops started really challenging the limits of chugga-chugga music. Destroy Erase Improve reset the scoreboard in '95, but nobody noticed until years later.
This is an interesting analysis. 'Heavy' is a nebulous enough concept in music that being so definite with assertions like this is basically inviting contention. It can only ever really be a discussion as opposed to anything concretely absolute.
I didn’t care for Last Kiss, but I did like that they released it for charity and made $10 million for Kosovo refugees.
