I don't feel guilty for liking bad/cheesey music generally.

But if I was to list some 'shockers' in the context of this board.

Keane (one of my favourite pop bands)
Souls of Mischief
Katie Perry
Pink
Jessie J
The Eagles (seen them live twice!)
Skrillex
Sum 41 (Screaming Bloody Murder is a good rock album!)

And then to list some 'shockers' for most people who meet me:

Decapitated
Sikth
Trivium (wait that goes in both lists right?) :p
etc...

Green Day

especially their American Idiot and 21st Century Breakdown stuff! Caught them live 2 times when they toured with 21st Century Breakdown. Their older catalogue has some incredible songs, but overall I prefer said albums.

American Idiot is a masterpiece. Too bad they wore it out like a truck stop hooker.

Never be ashamed of rammstein, they fucking rock :hbang: lol

Its just one of those bands that I hate to mention that I like, because everyone associates them with that one song which I shall not name, and forgets the fact that they actually put out 8 studio albums and two live albums, and no one seems to understand how I can enjoy a band who write most of their songs in German (although I grew up with my German grandma and can speak, read and write German fluently). Never mind the live aspect that comes with Rammstein...if there is a better live band I have never seen them.

As to Sabaton, they are more of a guilty pleasure for me because I am a history buff, and most of their songs are written about historic battles, so the sheer nerdiness of that puts them into the guilty pleasure category to me. Actually listening to them right now...

I've been hooked on Sade lately. So beautiful and graceful. The sparse, distorted guitars mix well with her smooth voice :yesway:
