I feel compelled to post this list even though 1) Lists were so 2 years ago and B) I find most of this list to be shameful. Most these bands may not be next in rotation in my own stereo, (though some are), but I think worst band ever might be pushing it. I smell shock value.
Extended drum solos. Prog-rock concept albums. Kenny G. We endured all these -- and much worse! -- to bring you Blender's list of the 50 most talentless music acts of all time. Just please don't ask us to do it again. Ever...50 IRON BUTTERFLY : Everything bad about the '60s, in one easy-to-avoid package
49 TOAD THE WET SPROCKET : Very poor name. Even poorer band
48 MASTER P : The dumbest of the Dirty South
40 BLIND MELON : A video made them; heroin undid them
37 THE DOORS : He was the Lizard King. No, really...
31 ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT : Too positive for their own goodAnd the top 5 are....
5 STARSHIP
They built this city on rock & roll. And crap!4 KENNY G
This guy really blows!3 MICHAEL BOLTON
Otis Redding died for this?2 EMERSON, LAKE & PALMER
Welcome back, my friends, to the second-worst band in history!1 INSANE CLOWN POSSE
They sound even stupider than they look

Oh, please. Any collection of "Worst" bands with 'The Doors' on it is not a serious list.
They should change the list title to 'Bands Some Guys at Bender Don't Particularly Like.'

Hard to argue the ICP ranking. As singers they were great wrestlers...

You've got to be kidding. ELP? They were a GREAT band. I think the problem is that these dolt's at Blender have had their minds plused and liquified by listening to most of the putrid spew that is Top 40 radio these days. And mind you, I actually grew up on Top 40, but still can appreciate (thank goodness for all those years of lessons!) great talent and good music.
