1. The monumental prick that is Robbie Williams. Good bye you little shitstab. A man whose smug grin is NOT, despite his own convictions, suave, but actually makes him look like a monkey having an orgasm. Persistent attempts at 'classy' music resulting in fans who now presumably frequent Athlete gigs (see below) purchasing truly phoney garbage like "Swing when you're Winning" (an apt mixture of second-rate swing covers with a football hooligan slant in attitude - see below). This, plus the fact that he maintains he should be the next Bond, mark him down as the ultimate in ego-fraud. If I HAD to search for any reason why this man is NOT crap, it would be that his career was one in the eye for the rest of Take That. But that's not saying much.
2. The godawful Athlete. For those who haven't had the 'pleasure', they sing in a more English drawl than real English people ever do, kind of like a pseudo-Coldplay shitbath. They are INTENSELY irritating, and part of that fusion between 'rock' music and thuggery, where concerts are akin to football games (see above) and it is impossible to play a feasibly sized venue. Only the stadia or fields for us, even though we've hardly done anything. Don your Reebok Classics, shove on your chav jewelry and proclaim that this is your 'rock' side. Or, alternatively, kindly fuck off.

Red Hot Chili Peppers - Fathered phony honky funk punk fusion. Eliminating the Red Hot Chili Peppers would wipe out scores of irritating assholes, from Jane's Addiction to Eminem.
I wholeheartedly agree, and these boring funksters seem to attract the Williams / Athlete crowds aplenty these days. Having found the Chili Peppers song writing formula, they are now able to follow it with gusto, releasing album after album of the same awful music. However, such is my hatred for the two 'artists' above, that Chili Peppers are promoted to number 3 in my list.
Ah-fankya
