The WORST bands and artists ever?

Creed

Slipknot and my chemical romance,oh.....and all emo music.

I never really HATE bands for the silly little reasons like "my lil sister listens to them all the time.." or "they're just way too commercial for my taste". Rather I take into account talent, ability, performance, lyrics and personality of the person behind the vocals/music.

Of anyone else in my head at the moment the name Avril Lavegne(spelt incorrectly) stands out. This girl is so bursting at the seems with teenaged angst that just drives me crazy. "my bossy parents, my stupid teachers, MY MILLIONS OF DOLLARS all make me feel so blue".
And she has also helped fan the flames of the "Rock Chick" persona that you'll see displayed in your local Clares Accessories. There are few things more false in todays society.
This girl is also entirely under the illusion that she is more gifted than she truely is. When Sk8tr Boi(i wont even comment on the spelling) was a huge success I recall reading an interview with Avril where she claimed that her lyrics were comparable to Bob Dylans. First of all one should never compare ones own talents to a certifiable legend as it is simply not becomming. But what makes it worse in this case is that her "music" is about as lyrical genius defunct as "Whoomp, There it is!"

So worst singer ever, that I can think of right now, Avril Lavegne. The worst thing to come out of Canada since Celion Dion.
