I'm sure some of you have some artists that are generally beloved by the music community but you just can't stand them.

For me it is The Mars Volta. It should be right up my alley, I like a lot of similar music but I can't get over the vocals. They sound so emo (which kinda makes sense, given the background of the vocalist) but to me it just does not fit the music at all.

Not trying to shit talk them, just wanting to share some hot takes.

U2. From the very first time I heard one of their songs. I am quite open to music, but I recall one day it was on the radio or something and I made a point of listening all the way to the end in order to hear the announcer list the name of the song.

I have heard other songs by them. Just can't stand them.

For me there's 1980's u2 which I like, and everything else which I hate. They used to be cool a long time ago, I promise ;-).

Exactly. Their stuff from the 80s was so good it’s hard to believe the same band made the other stuff. Lol

Part of me wants to see them at the sphere in Vegas but I don't like their music. Afaik they have a great stage show though. It'd be awesome to see them live.
