Florence Foster Jenkins singing the Queen of the Night’s aria.
Not an answer, but I enjoy underground doom metal concerts, and I’ve seen many bands w
David Lee Roth. Tone deaf
But claims that we the best music…I am now disillusioned.

Congratulations, you played yourself.
(FYI, I hold different views than this instance)
TL;DR: for me it’s current russian warsongs and covers of 80-90s classics that put the opposite meaning into them. Polina Gagarina, Shaman are the most known artists due to being banned from YT, but there are dozens of them. What and why - I’d try to explain in following paragraphs.
They don’t feel either inspired or honest, most of the worthy artists don’t want that mark in their resume so it’s left either for newbie artists or oldies who fear they are losing relevance. The western-in-everything ‘Я русский’ is the only catchy tune local media empires could produce, others are even more cringe like ‘333’, they don’t even compare to what repressed guys did and do.
Surprisingly, the same notion is shared with my relatives who do support the war (unlike me) or at least our men there. We still have a tradition of singing along the songs of old over the table when we meet with our elders, or over the fire if camping or meeting in the countryside, mostly soviet songs with inclusion of 90-00s. And itso happens there’s none of the promoted ones in the menu.
But that also tracks with the concerts on the TV we sometimes put on. It’s all older stuff by mostly aging artists. The contemporary russian music culture, as I suppose, was castrated by some sort of negative selection and I can’t think otherwise.
And what is really embarassing for me personally to hear is appropriation of songs that are either anti-war or asking for changes (namely KINO’s ones) sang in this day and this year by those who support both the regime and the war on state TV. That’s like this one republican guy just one hair width from discovering what RatM’s songs are about. There’s some second-hand shame you want to wash off in a bathroom right after hearing.
Apparently no one remembers Biz Markie.
Worst concert, REM when they were starting out.
Recorded voice that irritates me the most? Dead Kennedys.
I am, personally, pretty tolerant of imperfect singing if the song is good, think a whole lot of bands just let the best singer they have sing, instead of finding someone who can really sing, and that’s OK.
It’s funny. I know Jello’s singing isn’t great, yet I absolutely love his warbling voice.
Biafra is… Something. I can’t say whether or not it works in Dead Kennedies, but IMO it works just fine in Lard. I think that for the ethos of punk music–not pop punk, but the real shit–he’s pretty good.
I mean, his voice is perfect for Police Truck and Moon Over Marin but every now and again I’ll just… Stop while listening and think “ugh”
Imagine dragons - cutthroat. I dislike imagine dragons as it is, but this song is so bad it sounds like a bad parody of a shitty song.
I’ve watches so much german trash tv where people sing that nothing on this planet can shock me
I posted it in reply to another comment, but I think this is worth it’s own mention.
Saw it before, but never noticed the thumbnail before now. Couldn’t have found a more suitable one.
Sweet… Jesus…
Smashmouth
Because unless you saw them live, where the lead singer was probably drunk, they’re a legitimately good band with a solid discography. It’s not even a Nickelback / Creed situation where the common consensus is to shit on them - they’re just overexposed for their few top-100 hits.
“All Star” in particular is a self-aware criticism of people who give people shit for listening to Smash Mouth.
Yeah. Live at an Edgefest. It’s was bad. Really really bad.
Hey now…
Really surprised that no one’s mentioned Yoko Ono.
Is there a band called Yoko Ono? I ask, because I’m fairly sure there isn’t a singer.
The Plastic Ono Band… It is not good.
Not a good singer, for sure. Here’s her wikipedia page, and if you want to hear her “singing”, check out the Beatles documentary “Get Back”.
Did you honestly think from my comment that I didn’t know who Yoko Ono was?
I was saying that whatever noises she makes, she isn’t a singer. Therefore she doesn’t qualify for a mention in the “worst band or singer” category.
I couldn’t tell, so the gamble was either I get whooshed, or I help someone become one of today’s lucky 10,000. I guess I got the former, lol.
She’s really not that bad if you’ve ever heard Linkin park.
You guys ever listened to Corey Feldman?
I went to see The Offspring and Sublime (with Rome).
Offspring was pretty good though the arena had horrible sound. Sublime was hot garbage with Rome singing. The only thing saved it was the crowd knew all the words so we were all drowning out his shit singing.
Guy from lost prophets
That guy is the biggest piece of shit, hope he rots in prison
