Band/Artist Music Fatigue?
What band or artists did you ever suffer fatigue from?
What do you think caused it?
Are the bands/artists that you still suffer fatigue from? Or are there songs from an artist that you may have some serious fatigue from?
Did you ever find a cure?
here are a few of mine:
From 1982-1988 Led Zeppelin. I never want to hear Black Dog or Rock and Roll ever again. Not sure if there is a cure. Give me The Rover or Achilles Last Stand. I blame KISW/KZOK/KXRX for overplaying it. What cured it was hair metal and the early grunge movement in Seattle. And going in and listening the deep cuts that rocked. The fatigue has been cured.
Queen. Still have Queen fatigue to this day. Maybe if they played more of the deep cuts that rocked it might be cured. What soothes it is hearing the Flash Gordon theme. But Bohemian Rhapsody is the main cause of Queen fatigue. The blame goes to radio and Wayne's World.
Springsteen: From '84-'87 had some serious fatigue going on. Tunnel of Love was what really made it bad. I blame the Seattle radio stations. But I do love me some I'm Going Down and On Fire. I also think The Boss getting all political makes it worse.
Genesis/Phill Collins: Couldn't get away from them. Dorky ass MTV videos. the Peter Gabriel stuff is too weird to cure it. I think time is the only thing that may heal it.
Aerosmith: I was always into Aerosmith. I bought Permanent Vacation before it went bonkers. Once they hit it big again, the fatigue had set in. Basically, everything from Permanent Vacation onward I have fatigue from. The videos and dorky ass songs. Early Aerosmith is still OK in my book. But Pump and Nine Lives, no thanks.
Some bands have a song or songs that you never want to hear again, but you do love their tunes. Metallica, the Scorpions, U2, and the Red Hot Chili Peppers come to mind.
