Hate: Folk music

#10:
I actually should retitle this as "majority of folk music", or "folk music made by douchebags". Technically, I don't hate folk music as a genre. There is a lot of music I listen to that is probably labeled as folk music. Examples being, Joseph Arthur (awesome), Damien Rice (love him), the soundtrack of the indie flick, "Once", featuring the lead singer of The Frames (great album, hot singer), and the list really goes on and on.
But as I listen to Last.fm right now and the Rocky Votolato library, it occurs to me how much music is out there and TERRIBLE yet considered similar to Rocky Votolato, who I think is fantastic. So poor Rocky has to be categorized in with these douche-singers who can play like 8 chords.

If I was Rocky, Joseph, or Damien, I'd be pissed. Here I am an awesome singer-songwriter, and I have to be grouped in with the likes of Pedro the Lion and Iron & Wine. I mean, really??! Really, Pedro the Lion. How did you think the depressing lyrics and melody of "Slow and Steady Wins the Race" should be recorded and distributed to the public??! OMG! Shoot me now. I'm pretty sure the song I wrote when I was 15 and just started learning the guitar is better than this bullshit. Pedro the Lion, were you on ludes when you wrote this crap? Dudes! Take a good listen, like a REALLY good listen. And get a new job! Cause this whole folk/angst/singer thing is soooo NOT working for you!!!

Ok, time for me to skip this track. I can't believe this song is still going on. He clearly has a lot to say and I don't want to listen.
