Embarrassing Musical Fads (Pre-metal)

What are some embarrassing musical trends you had that you'd rather forget, but I'm making you recall. Before metal, I was a nu-metal fan: Disturbed, KoRn, SOAD and the like with alot of altern and hard rock and a bit of punk thrown in. For about...hmmm...a decade really. Listened to christian alternatives before that due to my parents: ie) POD, Skillet, Relient K, etc. I also had the really embarrassing high school faze where I delved into shitty hip-hop like *shudders* 3 6 Mafia, 50 cent (why, god, why?), Luda and that mindless shit, though it was more Eminem, Dre, and Busta Rhymes that I stuck with. In my childhood, I enjoyed Michael W Smith and Rich Mullins along with some classical, light rock, and some 80's shit. So, most embarrassing fad by far was the high school hiphop phase

I will make a complete list shortly for your entertainment.

I used to be pretty much your stereotypical scene kid, I lurv'd Nu Metal and Metalcore, was full of angst, asploded if anyone said anything negative about me or the music I listened to, and freely referred to myself as a Metalhead.

CAN WE STOP REMEMBERING NOW FIL?! It hurts to think about

We're still embarrassed enough FOR you, Hammy. BEP is worse than ANY of the bands on Kerb's list.

What. The. Fuck.

Short note: There is one musical fad that I never really got into, pop-punk. I only ever liked one band in it.

Holy shit, you and Kerb have something in common

....please tell me this doesn't insinuate what I think it insinuates

Nope. I meant we still have a similar taste in symphonic metal. And having a similar taste in music to Hammy can be agonising.

Oh, phew, for a minute there I thought you still liked MCR, in which case I would've had to kill you

Right, cuz you both like the BEP?

Black Eyed Peas suck. I knew that even before I discovered metal.
