Anyone see anything legitimate on this list? It looks to me like they are just trying to piss people off.

There are plenty of legit entrances on this list, but to say Blind Melon and Primus are in the top 50 worst bands is nothing but bullshit.

Hangin's too good for 'em for even have given thought of mentioning these artists in this context.
Especially Pat Boone....the dude is METAL! \m/

I thought it was obvious that they were trying to piss people off with their "Worst Songs of All Time" list.

I'm clearly biased, but they weren't THAT bad... Maybe top 50. Top 100 is Tin Machine II wasn't released.

I only know him from renditions of other people's songs and collaborations with bands, so I don't know about his songwriting, but he's an extremely talented musician.

Maybe they just saw all those "Primus sucks" and assumed it was a popular position to take. I was also discouraged by the presence of Arrested Development. Blender (what ever the hell that is anyway) sucks ass.

I agree with the people who say that this is Blender trying to piss people off. How else can you explain The Doors and Blind Melon in the same list with Japan and Insane Clown Posse?

And you have to wonder how LFO, Limp Bizkit, William Hung (oh, wait, we're talking about artists), and Starland Vocal Band could have been left off the list.

Blender is a mens' magazine (like Maxim). They also profile hot celebrity chicks, which probably explains why they didn't include anyone like Britney Spears or Jennifer Lopez on this list. The only women on this list were Latoya Jackson and Celine Dion.

This list is complete BS. How could a band like Toad The Wet Sprocket be voted one of the worst bands ever? Like I said earlier, this list was made up just to piss people off and get them attention.

The only thing I don't like about The Doors was the use of the keyboard... I mean, keyboard solos? Eww.
Still, that doesn't make them the worst band ever by any stretch of the imagination.

'Blender' magazine: RIP
Blender_l
It is in the nature of business that people regard their competitors as bitter rivals to be outdone and defeated at every opportunity. And publishing is no exception. But it's never good news for anyone when a title actually closes. So it's with some sadness that I learned today of Blender magazine's demise.
The title was launched in 2001 by former Q magazine chief Andy Pemberton and publishing vet Craig Marks. It rapidly gained a well-deserved rep for snarkily entertaining coverage of the music scene and all manner of lunatic features. I actually worked at Blender for a long time and, without that organ, it is doubtful that I would ever have appeared onstage with Lil Jon, watched the Flaming Lips pour a case of Pepto-Bismol over a pair of strippers or learned how to soundtrack a porn movie (FYI: it's easier than you might think, thanks to iTunes).
So Music Mixers, will you miss Blender? Or do you think that we here at the far superior EW are already satisfying all your music needs (hey, come on, we can't mourn forever)?

EW is on the way out too. Just not as quickly. They've laid a shitload of people of off and are considering going 'web only.'
I admit I subscribe, but I get it for practically free because of the lawyer's discount (seriously) and it makes good reading on the shitter.
