No, no, no, no:

Point-ed stick? Oh, oh, oh. We want to learn how to defend ourselves against point-ed sticks, do we? Getting all high and mighty, eh? Fresh fruit not good enough for you eh? Well I'll tell you something my lad. When you're walking home tonight and some great homicidal maniac comes after you with a bunch of loganberries, don't come crying to me!

Amen brother!

Auto-tune is the "mullet" of audio, and will be remembered accordingly.

Now, I would also add drum replacement software abuse. Locking beats to a grid and replacing badly recorded drum sounds with hyper modern generic drum sounds makes crappy bands "sound" somewhat competent but makes my head hurt.

And of course, over compressed, dynamic range killing mastering practices that seems to be "fashionable" currently.

\:\) No need to frown, Lamp. I would never say that Celine can't sing, quite the contrary....I think her personality needs some work though.

What needs to go away is American Idol and all of the orifices attendant thereto...

If hi-fi ever grows into the mainstream, all of these recordings are going to seem pretty ridiculous. I think it's pretty short-sighted to master for crappy equipment.

I'd say all of the "artists" who were on Dick Clark's New Years Rocking Eve last night should be on this list. It was so painful.

\:D I doubt that will ever happen. It takes a lot more work and attention to the details to be worth the time to a majority of people.
