What are some cliches in guitar dominated music that you can't stand?

Wow, it's been a year since the beginning of this thread...

...and apparently people still hate dissonant chugs and bass drops

I just found a video on Youtube exemplifying just this sort of thing. Haha, you will probably hate this (listen @ 1.30)

Aside from actual guitar playing/techniques/song structure/whatever, I really cant stand the majority of radio rock music where they all sing about girls/partying/their cocks/drinkin/etc. I bet Nickelback could actually write a half decent metal or hard rock album if they actually tried!

The solution is to not listen to radio rock, or think about Nickelback.

I hate when the guitars are great and then they find some cookie monster wannabe to growl over the top of it rendering it unlistenable.

FTFY

Bass drops are kinda sweet

what clichés i don't like about guitar dominated music? that's hard to tell... i've got nothing against most forms of music but my bad senses are tickled every time i hear...

"why downtune ?" in a condescending way. why? because it just sounds nicer to me, just like you prefer some other stuff i don't care about.

"you must learn classical guitar first" which i disagree with. these two instruments have historically different musical applications/purposes, and for that reason, people should train on the instrument they prefer. i'm not saying anybody should exclusively play a single instrument, i'm saying learning both is great, but one is not a requisite for the other.

i can't think of anything else for now ._.

that video was all over the last couple of pages but i guess it serves enough to say that we, in this thread, really, really don't like the crabdjeathcore trend
