Criticize your favorite band

[TheFunPolice]

We all have a favorite band, some people (like me) will call some bands completely flawless. However, EVERYTHING is open to criticism and I think it's time we talk about things which bug you (and other people) about your favorite musicians and bands

I'll start ^_^

The Fratellis are my all time favorite band, I literally cannot put into words how much I love their music. But I have some serious problems with the way they mix their music..Their bassist is a really great player and his basslines are practically always brilliant...Except everything he plays is literally inaudible because somebody decides that it's a good idea to make the bass track ridiculously quiet...And me being a bassist, this pisses me the hell off..

I think they make up for it when they play live though, but it still drives me up the wall, when I have to actually block out the rest of the music, just to hear what the guy is playing -_-

A reason why I think other people would dislike their music, I think people could find their songs to be slightly repetitive...But that's just going off a few comments I've had about their songs..I personally don't find it at all repetitive...

So yeah, those are some problems I have with an otherwise(imo) perfect band

Now what about you?

Gorillaz didn't come down to Mexico on their last tour.

Fuck them

Weezer have been my favourite band for some time and their music made me want to be a musician and I love all their albums (to a point).

However Rivers Cumos needs to grow the fuck up. It was all well and good back in the early days to sing about awkward nerdy stuff and write sappy love songs about girls but now it's getting tedious. I was almost cringing while listening to their most recent album. A 40 year old dude complaining about hot, smart girls approaching him now that he is married it's...it's embarrassing. The music is all well and good but the word play needs to be stepped up, especially now that they are planning to put out albums quicker than they ever have before. And...yeah, other than that they're awesome, and I can't wait to see them in January, where I will be in the front row.

The only critique I can make of Daft Punk is that they don't release music often enough which would be a dick move. *Sigh,* turns out Daft Punk really is a flawless band .

Why didn't Dream Theater let Mike Portnoy come back? Fucked if I know!

Ah, don't go hating on those guys; the music's awesome and that's what counts.

Okkervil River you may have the best songs I've ever heard but by glob do you have a couple of terrible ones.
Bullet to the brain terrible.

Turns out the lead singer of my favourite band might be a pedophile...

Alter Bridge goes off to Europe or Australia pretty much every tour, which means I'll probably never get to see them in concert.

Also, there's the fact that it kind of looks like they might be breaking up in the near future since the instrumental members have turned their attention back to Creed, Myles Kennedy has been partnering with Slash, Mark Tremonti's been working on a solo career, and Scott Phillips joined a new band.
