My pick is Five Finger Death Punch and the obvious answer is Ivan Moody. The guy radiates that alpha-male wannabe energy and it definitely rings through all of the songs he has written and performed with this band. The guy is just a prick and a self-victimizing asshole.

I think he's the primary reason FFDP is mocked so badly.

Muse without the vocals.

Love the instrumentals, vocals strike me as written by a teenage theatre kid. Overly dramatic and theatrical in a way that doesn't fit well imo.

Will listen to the first 45 seconds of "assassin" then it's tike to turn it off lol https://youtu.be/nNPSSs1xnpY?si=sfnQHjlgclCEwWwZ

I feel the same about a lot of metal. I often really love the instrumental portion of lots of really heavy metal, then often the vocalist opens his fucking mouth and ruins it.

To each their own, I suppose.

Could you give us some specifics?

This is death metal and black metal for me.

Badass instrumentals. Why the fuck is the vocalist a growling cookie monster? Can't even comprehend a single fucking word he's "singing" and yet the song somehow has lyrics. I can barely, BARELY tolerate Cannibal Corpse for the reason that I can comprehend the vocalist.

Muse was once described to me as the Queen of the modern era. I struggled so hard not to laugh. Muse is alright. They sure as hell ain't even close to Queen vocally or musically.
