So Bad It's Good: Music you think is bad but still enjoy/find funny

Someone I know was involved in a "Hot Problems" parody I kinda enjoy. If nothing else the change in genre makes the monotonous melody fit better:

I could not get all the way through the Graal track - what's sort of weird is that the first minute and a half was actually some kind of nice mood-setting that made me expect something along the lines of early Pink Floyd, then those goofy vocals kicked in, and shortly after more and more ridiculousness just started piling on.

Okay not really that bad compared to some other really primitive first wave extreme metal out there but Tom G. Warrior and co. were still really getting their shit together when they made this. Awesomely engrish-heavy lyrics.

[up][up] "And when I see her broken skull / I know I'm livin' in Satan's rule" is a pretty Painful Rhyme. Also the title of "Bloody Pussies" cracked me up, mostly because I was imagining a very British man exclaiming it while tripping over some cats.

Hellhammer is awesome, whachoo talkin' bout?

And if you want Engrish lyrics, early Sodom and Sarcofago are the way to go.

Hellhammer are great IMO but the Death Fiend demo was pretty sloppy even by 'fago/first wave extreme metal standards.

I actually like Dr. Dre/Snoop Dogg. If you're not familiar with the former, he was the one who started the gangsta rap genre and arguably made the best rap album ever (The Chronic). He was also a member of NWA.

This is a lot funnier than it sounds because I'm a scrawny white boy living in the US Midwest.

Dre is cool, especially as a part of NWA (who are just straight-up badass, with the possible exception of Eazy-E). Not so keen on Snoop, he's alright though.

As a pale, scrawny British prog nerd, I am in a similar position, but the idea that you have to fit a certain demographic to listen to certain music doesn't fly with me anyway.

I mainly know this song because The Fall of all people did a cover. They pretty much totally changed the last verse, which is too bad, because I'd love to have heard Mark E. Smith singing "I hate them, yes, I hate the cheese and pickle".

Oh, and it was supposed to be bad, but that deliberately unreleasable demo album Van Morrison basically made out of Writer Revolt. I tracked down the whole thing somewhere once, and hearing the whole album makes it even more ridiculous - every song is pretty much the exact same thing, and you can tell he wrote and recorded the whole thing in one sitting because as the tracks go on his acoustic guitar gradually falls more out of tune:

I can't believe I forgot this: One of the most brilliant minds in pop music of the past half century and the most famous of The Beach Boys made this:

Granted, he was being greatly manipulated by his therapist and had tons of issues going on in his brain at the time that he made it, but he still made it and sent promo singles of it to DJs.

How did the thread get this long with no mention of Lucia Pamela?

I had to stop this song in the middle the first time I heard it because I was laughing so hard I couldn’t breathe.
