The Fall Out Boy remix of Hand Crushed By A Mallet by 100 Gecs (https://spotify.link/Vtwt9T0DhDb) is absolutely fantastic, a brilliant pop punk cover right up until the end when it’s just melted into absolute fucking noise. I get it, it’s Gecs. But just let it be a good cover - please.
Looks like they did get the message with their most recent album as it’s a lot more listenable.
Saved this post, this weekend I should try my hand at making edited versions of a couple of the songs to try and remove the parts people think are shitty.
Shit I got nothing for this. I listen to a lot of music, but the weird, jarring parts that others don’t enjoy are usually written for me. When La Mala Ordina by clipping. broke down into terrible noises at the end, my wife thought something had happened to our speaker. She thought the echo had gone fucking haywire mid song. I was rocking the fuck out to the terrible noises >_>
“Goat Flokk” by Cristobal and the Sea
Majority of the song is fantastic, but the last 1/4th has an extremely loud and shrill flute solo that nearly makes my ears hurt.
First thing that comes to mind is Pink Floyd - Echoes. One of the greatest tracks ever, but that bit in the middle is kind of grating. Maybe if you’re tripping hard enough it’s not that bad…
I’m not generally anti-Donna when it comes to the Grateful Dead but there’s definitely the odd track delivered with all the grace of a toddler with a recorder. Then again, every member of that band ruined the odd track at one point or another!
Still wish I had been around to see them more than any other band though.
I wouldn’t say it ruins it, but the really obvious splice edit in the third verse of She Loves You is jarring for me every time.

1:22, right when Lennon sings ‘Pride can hurt you, too’, the cymbal sound changes noticeably.
It’s hard to tell.
Yes! The final verse of Strawberry Fields, too.
Once you notice it, oof.
theres a few songs i really liked, then i heard the background vocal and it is just irritating as hell. examples being electric version by the new pornographers and the monster song from lego rock band
Pretty much any song with a rap feature. It’s not that I don’t like rap, it’s that the feature doesn’t work well with the song most of the time.
I think a good overall example is Tove Lo - she has many features present across her albums and there are only a couple that truly “fit” the song.
There’s another part of Schaffer the Darklord’s “The Rappist” where he talks writing in pencil so you can erase it, and the burn is good but the flow with and surrounding it is only mediocre to me lol. Otherwise a phenomenal song with strong lyrics and flow throughout, it’s just that one part where, well, he needed to take his own advice ;)
Not many though, I really had to nitpick to think of these examples.
There are a few songs that I like, but then are just ruined by out-of-nowhere rapping right in the middle, yeah.

Haha… I am waiting for the Bohemian Rhapsody hate crowd to land on this question… 😂
This song would be great if only there weren’t any Machine Gun Kelly passages in it.
Pretty much any song where they have to say their name about a dozen times. Just in case its too generic to tell I guess
Yaught - Paradise Engineering.
Bring in the retro synth, introduce a slapping bass beat, and just when you’re ready for a shot of adrenalin in comes the overraught, out of tempo, spoken word over the top.
:-(
Similarly, every Mogwai album has to have a synth-voice track for some reason. Presumably to give the audience a chance to go to the loo without missing anything.
Panic! At The Disco’s ‘I Write Sins Not Tragedies’
I originally listened to the version where they censored the word ‘god’, which is stupid on its own but the songs a banger.
Now when i listen to how he goes like 3 octaves higher for the single word god, its just jarringly out of place. Which, might be the point? Its still annoying.
