Sinnead O'Connor.

She's got a shaved head. She cries in a video. That's about it.

you spelt it wrong, shes not a band and....well. Your post may be a joke (she is a head the ball though....)

 

[Cheesypoof]

For a 'proper' band, The Divine Comedy are pretty horrible. National Express is a particularly irritating smugfest.

yeh awful.

 

[ferrelhadley]

Foster and Allen.

 

[sleaterkinney]

The Saw Doctors

 

[Johnny Vodka]

Westlife don't just make shit music, but are allegedly utter cunts IRL too.

Daniel O'Donnell

Her version of the foggy dew with the chieftains is pretty good.

Nah. Indie disco novelty crap. I sill have an ep of theirs on vinyl in the front room though. Don't know how that has survived.

 

[skyscraper101]

Where's me jumper is an all time classic, shut yer face.

And the Frank & Walters are great

 

[Orang Utan]

any of the Irish boybands, but they are not actual 'bands' is it.

They're bands of singers

 

[Yossarian]

There's no shortage of shitty bands to choose from, but U2's the only one that didn't give people a choice about downloading their shitty music.

 

[twentythreedom]

they werent 'awful'

You like Milo too

 

[albionism]

Sultans Of Ping were a great piece of "Punk Pathetique".

 

[DaveCinzano]

Is this the worst Irish rapper ?

Hey - not rapper, loud-mouthed Irish poet if you please.

Also, seems not everyone on the video shoot was entirely on-message...

Also: possibly a Scientologist

Rapper, former drug addict, launches anti-drugs project

 

[flypanam]

An emotional fish.

A fat tuneless cunt and three faceless turnips channelling bono but believing they're Yeats.

I'd forgotten about them.

Then there's Blue in Heaven. An awful shower of stodge-rockers, whose frontman Hot Press tried to build up into a Jim Morisson-style Lizard King Voice of His Generation:

Spoiler: MY EYES THE GOGGLES DO NOTHING

Post Of The Day, sadly

ETA:

What sort of place is Ireland that someone thought Alice Glenn and the World Anti-Communist League was a good name for a band?

 

[Idris2002]

A question for the ages.

Serves you right for buying an iphone.

Therapy?

Nowhere near "the worst" but never as good as you'd hoped they were.

Oh come on they were very far from being Blue in Heaven!

Who were that band of D4 girls back in the 1990s, the ones who did utterly unlistenable garage rock?

 

[8den]

No Saw Doctors = utter fail.

My 4yo has been singing this on a loop for 3 months and testing the very limits of our parental-child bond.




And the Divine Comedy for being possibly the most pretentious wanky art school band in a decade and giving use Neil Hannon. Prick.

 

[8den]

The Frames.

There's something about the way Glen Hansard scrunches up his face and closes his eyes REALLY REALLY TIGHT at the DEEP & EARNEST part of the song, that makes me want to commit serious amounts of violence.

Yeah they were good. But somehow disappointing...

My cousin from the posh side of the family (don't ask) plays violin for him.
