The 10 Suckiest Bands of the '00s

Page 4 of 4

1. Godsmack Their name was pilfered from an Alice in Chains song, they stole their sound from Alice In Chains, only they bastardized it and made it so much worse via Sully Erna's growling garbage, and every song they recorded sounded horribly similar to the one before it. Recycled, monotonous, boring, lame and, oh, copycattish. We don't need them to emerge from the bowels of the '00s on any nostalgia tour any time soon, do we?

If that soul-crushing list isn't enough to prove the point, I would also like to remind everyone that this is the same decade that brought us music from not only Ashlee Simpson, but Paris Hilton as well. Do I need to sing a line from "Stars Are Blind?" I didn't think so.
