I'll throw radiohead on my list. I like a lot of their stuff, but not nearly enough as I would expect given their level of critical acclaim


If we're talking about older bands let me throw The Who, The Beatles, Pink Floyd, and Neil Young on my list as well. 4 artists I just don't give the slightest shit about, even though they've all had a huge influence on the stuff I do really care about.


And I can probably put Soundgarden on this list too. They have a lot of songs I love, but they've probably produced as much if not more music I'm indifferent to. R.E.M. is to DcT as Soundarden is to Stip

I'm kinda with you on this. Their live album is great but their studio stuff just doesn't do it for me.

I feel like I should like The June Brides more than I do, considering how much I love some of their stuff (especially Sunday to Saturday).

I also feel like I should like Cheap Trick way more than I do.

Pretty much any of the "grunge" bands that aren't Nirvana or Pearl Jam.
And REM. As it is, I just got their best of 'cuz I couldn't slog through all the non-hits.

Also, Springsteen. I like some of the early asbury park stuff, but I really don't like most of his output.
