Which band/musician has the most annoying fans according to you, /mu/ ?
U2
why dont you kids like the tool?
Any metalcore band
Kanye West
Death Grips
Grimes
Crystal Castles
odd future
Damn I want to squish those titties together
Anything from Burger Records
>>53031126
Slipknot circa early to mid 2000s
How has no one said ICP? I mean, sure it's the obvious answer, but it's still fucking true.
i like haim's music but their fans are pretty fucking annoying
Kanye and Death Grips by far. Blood On The Dancefloor and Tool fans are pretty bad too. Literally any nu-metal band has terrible fans. Juggalos are awful. Floyd fans are awful. Sublime fans are awful. Radiohead fans are awful. I could go on forever.
john frusciante worshippers
Death Grips
shpongle degenerates
Kanye West
Mindless Self Indulgence
Black Veil Brides and other scene shite
>>53031126
A Perfect Circle
Rush comes VERY close
>>53031482
My dad's a Rush fan...
>>53031294
I feel as if the hatred of ICP fans (understandable as it is) became more annoying than the fans themselves with all the circle jerkery.
>>53031126
on this board it is death grips withotu a doubt
Definitely prog rock fans by far. Usually when a certain genre is brought up, people will discuss who they like and why, and there might be a dozen or more names thrown around.
But with prog rock it's literally just "OH GOD RUSH OH GOD DREAM THEATER THEY'RE THE BEST BANDS EVER NEIL PEART LET ME SUCK YOUR DICK"
>>53031294
They're dumb but nice. I went to the gathering and had a fuckload of fun. I'd rather hang out with those guys than many other fanbases
>>53031165
>any warped tour band
>>53031386
Never run into one of those.
The correct answer is Tool fans.
>>53031515
My best friend in HS was too
And his brother
And our other friend
If I had a dollar every time I heard
"No wait wait listen to this part"
"OK here it is right here"
"No did you hear that? Let me play it again"
as death grips fun....
death grips
>>53031533
These bands are hated in prog threads here
>>53031533
Oh god yes dream theater too
Fucking Neil Peart ugh
Dream Theater.
Honestly the band isn't that bad, I used to like them a fair amount, but the fans really frustrate me. Especially the Brazilian ones.
Prog fans and memerap fans.
>inb4 ">using memerap unironically"
>>53031126
anthony fantano fans
>Go to festival in 2000, KISS headlining
>Massive guy, twice my size in every direction, getting really into it next to me
>Can feel him getting heavier and heavier for some reason
>He suddenly goes hard
>Knocks me to the ground
>This is the end for me, leave my collection to my friends, burn my folders
>Suddenly being lifted into the air
>I'm on his shoulders
>"HEY SORRY MAN I GOT A BIT A CARRIED AWAY YOU ALRIGHT UP THERE HAHA WHAT A GREAT TIME EH MAN HA HA"
>Am I being raped?
>>53031533
Oh and I forgot to add: Prog fans are the worst because they think level of technicality = a gauging of quality
Linkin Park, Korn, Skrillex, Sabaton and Powerwolf
Bunch of 14 yrs old faggots
How has nobody mentioned EDM fans? Specially dubstep fans.
not a band but i fucking hate people who are into festivals. bonnaroo, coachella, anything. 90% of the time they don't even make a schedule it seems; they're all there for the festival. and the weeks leading up to it all you hear is "omg it's so much better than last year, can't wait".
they all have this fucking carefree attitude about life and money that i cannot stand. it's so beyond me. never met someone into going to festivals that i could say i liked.
Linkin Park, Korn, Skrillex, Sabaton and Powerwolf
Bunch of 13 yrs old faggots, for some reason they think they're edgy or something
On the internet, Death Grips fans. IRL, pic.
>>53031126
Tool. Hands down.
pretentious hipster fans of an obscure band gaining recognition
surprised no one mentioned deadheads yet
>>53031756
dude festivals are about having fun and doing drugs and listening to music. Just go to a regular show if you want music
The white girls who go to Something Wicked and other EDM festivals, and do a lot of molly and wear Indian headdresses, and listen to Skrillex and Drake and the Weeknd and think Steve Aoki is some kind of genius.
Sphongle fags
Papadosio/Lotus/Insert neo-hippie jam band disillusioned flower children
Run the Jewels tryhards
Drake worshippers
>>53031757
I'm pretty sure most /mu/tants were once that kid
>>53031823
Cuz they are surprisingly chill ass fuck people who are also surprisingly open minded musically, too. Or they are like that in my experience.
Other jam band fans in general though...that's a completely different story.
>>53031756
you're mistaking festivals for shows I think.
I'd hate to be the kind of person who goes to a seven day festival with a fucking tabulated itinerary "Well it's 15:32 now so we need to run over to the second stage for fifteen minutes of <x> before heading over to the fosters stage for twenty six minutes exactly"
joanna newsom fans
>>53031823
I never understood them. Why would you follow a band on tour? They're going to be playing the exact same songs.
Eminem
"mayn eminenem is da rap god he da olny one make real rap musicc like he save mai lief"
>>53031776
Tool fan here. Maynard's shallowest feels are too deep for you.
(Yes this is copypasta but it's funnytrue)
>>53031896
Deadheads are stoned 24/7 so they don't notice it's the same few songs over and over
>>53031827
they're expensive as shit is what i'm getting at. between that and the hotel and the commute.
why can't you throw a party and do drugs and listen to music? it's much cheaper. also the sound is awful at festival settings so that rules out actually enjoying the music.
>>53031756
The reason people go there is to be carefree and burn money on the fun. It's just like going on vacation. Don't be such a tight wad "old" man.
>>53031893
>you're mistaking festivals for shows
huh? i love going to shows. festivals are pointless.
>I'd hate to be the kind of person who goes to a seven day festival with a fucking tabulated itinerary
so you're saying that you're cool with paying 100+ dollars to be locked in a facility in order to do drugs with the off chance you'll coincidentally stumble upon a performance you wanna see?
>>53031710
No progressive rock fan thinks that. It's never been about technicality; it's about progression, hence the name. Songs that are constantly moving and developing, as opposed to standard rock song structure. That is what is appealing about the genre.
>>53031922
>>53031896
its ok not to like deadheads but the band actually has a practice of not repeating sets or songs les than ike 3 or for gigs apart
>>53031931
>the sound is awful at festival settings so that rules out actually enjoying the music
thats what the drugs are for.
and good luck trying to replicate a festival atmosphere at a house party.
not a single kpop fan I've met was able to separate their weird obsession with actual life
>>53031756
>they're all there for the festival.
no shit, sherlock
>>53031533
People who know their prog rock well really don't like Dream Theater.
>>53031831
Headdresses are hot tho.
>>53031823
deadheads are cool
jam band people tend to be cool too
it's that new wave of jam band kids that are the fucking retards
>>53031931
Maryland Deathfest has great sound. But it's also a smaller festival so maybe that's why.
fuccbois raving about Jay Cole's album was pretty annoying
>>53031680
I saw kiss live once. It was pretty fun.
>>53032009

Death Grips. This may sound extreme, but if there was a button that would make all DG fans instantly drop dead, I wouldn't even hesitate to push it. I've never met a cool DG fan. Ever.
>>53031899
"Eminem is a real rapper because he raps about life; not sex, money and B.S"
>a real, breathing human being wrote that sentence
>they were talking about a guy who has a song called 'ass like that'
>>53032252
As a fan of death grips I am sorry that you feel that way, my liking of their music doesn't define me.
I would not push the button that kills you anon.
Eminem.
>>53032252
You've never met me then.
*adjusts sunglasses*
'music' fans
People who believe "meme-rap" is a thing are pretty annoying.
Not a particular artist, but really any mainstream pop musician. Britney Spears, Adele, Trainor, or any random no name that breaks the top 5. Their fans are always people who will dismiss anything barely outside pop music as "weird," and insist that their favorite music's popularity is evidence of quality.
>>53032252
>I've never met a cool DG fan
I've legitimately never even met a DG fan at all. Some of my friends have heard of them but haven't listened to them, and I've never talked to anyone who has.
>>53032420
Death Grips suck. Kanye West sucks. Lil Ugly Mane sucks. Lil B sucks. Chief Keef sucks. Run The Jewels suck. Pitchfork is a terrible music site. Don't you have a baking soda thread to spam?
Kpop probably. They keep to their containment thread here, but they're an absolute cancer on /vg/. They're like bronies, literally every post has to have a Korean avatar, they can't stop talking about it regardless of how off-topic it is.
>>53032504
I don't listen to any of those nor do I read Pitchfork.
Childish Gambino
>>53032456
>I've legitimately never even met a DG fan at all.
I once walked past a guy wearing a Money Store t-shirt in town. I momentarily considered complimenting him, reaching out to see if there were a spark of shared interest in something to be kindled. I did not.
Odd Future by a long shot.
Wavves
/thread
>>53032504
Chief Keef is good though.
>>53032629
Wavves has fans?
>>53031976
That's not what the genre title means at all
Reggae as a whole, but more specifically Bob fucking Marley.
I love Bob Marley, but his fucking white, wannabe gangster fans who rep "One Love" and wear Rasta colors and claim to be Rasta even though they have tattoos and piercings... My fucking high school was full of kids like that.
Also, Odd Future, Eminem, Kottonmouth Kings, Blink-182, Rush, Skrillex and dubstep fans, metal heads, and Avenged Sevenfold.
>>53032592
Wise decision.
>>53032456
legitimate question from an olderfag (27): how do young people know what's popular these days? no one listens to the radio, mtv doesn't have videos (I assume, it stopped playing vids back in 2002 or so), so where is the place that people find out about the schlock that becomes pop music?
I'm not interested in listening to it myself, I'm just confused. I thought the internet destroyed all the normal ways that shitty bland music was delivered to my and older generations, so how do the kids all know the same stuff these days?
>>53033710
People just buy singles they hear on Youtube. Also word of mouth and advertising plays a big part. Top albums are very skewed however, you end up with weird results sometimes since nobody buys albums anymore.
>>53033710
I'm assuming the radio in their cars when they drive somewhere. Also probably banner advertisements and stuff like that on iTunes or whatever outlet they use for music. Pop musicians' faces are usually plastered all over those sites advertising new releases. Spotify does that too. Especially if they're already into pop music, they'll be getting advertisements tailored for them.
>>53032777
Dub reggae fans are generally cool.
Also, I don't agree with festival dude but I will say I'm not too fond of festivals, mostly because of the heat and that I have a hard time connecting with people unless I'm rolling. I do like the availability of drugs though and the music, of course.
Which is a shame, because as much as you faggots will (inevitably) tear me up for it, I like a lot of his music.

Theyre bullying pretty acacia brinley just 4 no reason lol

>They're dumb but nice.
Which is why they're classified as a gang after all those violent assaults and murders right
>>53031126
The whole fucking psytrance and house music genres.
Death Grips. No contest. Even worse than Nirvana and Radiohead fans.
>>53034639
Over the course of 3 days I saw a lot of dumb shit but zero assaults. I saw no females getting harassed, nothin. It was a huge group of people so there were some isolated incidents. But overall, definitely safer than my tier 1 college campus

Morrissey fans
>>53031857
dude I live in Denver and their are plenty of fans of that sort. many of them are weekend warriors, the teller at my bank would go to shows at red rocks and do drugs. I saw him outside of his job at one point and he admitted to it. We talked about doing LSD and such.
>>53035510
Are they all about that Pretty Lights?

>>53033710
Promotion through social media and blog sites. Also featuring no name artists with bigger artists, then years down the road pumping money into promoting those no name artists until no one on earth hasn't heard of them. Pharel Williams for example, he broke out with Happy all I could think was who is this guy? Then I later realized, "oh that's the guy from the Drop it Like its Hot video!"

Youre an idiot.
There are four annoying kinds of RHCP fans:
>people who only like their 80s stuff and think they should have broken up when Hillel died
>people who think Anthony should have been replaced by a better vocalist at some point
>people who are really Frusciante fans and think you're required to like his solo albums
>people who regurgitate the One Hot Minute was shit meme
All pop stars (Madonna, Britney, Gaga, Katy Perry, etc) have horrible, horrible fans.
>>53038710

Jon Langford from the Mekons said something in some interview about how he likes Death Grips. I don't know, I don't like them that much but a lot of people are into them....there are the meme people who are way too into them and then there are people who are sorta interested in them as "outsider art"
>>53031861
I sure was. And yes, I am suitably ashamed of myself.

This second to Grimes. I can handle just dopey ignorant people that are super into the greatful dead or whatever, but man tumblr tier shit like grimes attracts the annoying misguided, unfriendly, diluted, vegan on weekdays, self indulgent third wave feminists of the world.
>>53032629
this so fucking much
both times I've seen Wavves were some of the most unenjoyable shows I've ever attended
>>53031680
That actually doesn't sound that bad. Sure that'd be annoying, but he's clearly trying to be nice even if it's a little bit bumbling and misguided. Kiss fans can be dumb, but they're usually pretty nice in my experience.

Classic metal fans are the cringiest though
"REAL METAL MAN STUFF FROM THE 80s and 90s like Metallica, Megadeth, Maiden, Ac/Dc, Korn, Five Finger death punch, Rob Zombie. They then proceed to wear the cringiest of clothes and try to explain how metal is the best genre and how every other genre is inferior to metal, also "MAN FUCK THIS THIS ISNT EVEN REAL METAL "

Correction, young prog rock fans suck. There's nothing wrong with liking Rush or Dream Theatre but most people who dig into the genre will find plenty on offer. I've found that older prog fans have a wide range of tastes in music and tend to appreciate music beyond "BRUH DID YOU HEAR DAT GROOVE THERE. SO GOOD"
