No surprise here but a lot of Radiohead fans (not all) from what I've seen tend to be extremely smug and elitist. A lot of them act as if Radiohead's greatness is undeniable fact. |

Touchy subject. Norwegian black metal peeps because they'll sacrifice you to sata-... just kidding. I know this isn't an exact band or artist but to be perfectly honest... I've seen the most hate from 'i'm too hardcore death brutal metal 4 u' people. Why? They want to push people away from the fan base when people don't fit their exact high expectations. Add when their favorite band gets a little catchier sounding...they alienate the band even though they got 12 tattoos they talk shit about even though its on their own body. Just my perspective. Definitely a touchy subject though. |

I love the band (quite possibly my favourite in fact) but I can't stand the 'untouchable' status so many give to them, as if they've never put a foot wrong. That's not the case. |

This is a really tough question. I think I'm gonna go with the "defend pop punk" kids. Pop punk kids in general. |
Have you ever heard a death rattle before? Do you think it'll live up to its name? Or will it just be a death...hairball? |

I've seen some out of control BOTDF fans. I don't really think one specific fan base is the worst though. You can't generalize a fanbase or a group of individuals. I absolutely love Radiohead don't really see the fans acting extremely smug and elitist. Maybe I just don't pay attention. |

Eminem seriously, I respect him because he's a legend but his Stans who unfortunately make up a large portion of his fanbase usually say ignorant and cliche statements and what's more annoying is that they don't even listen to Hip Hop to make these statements valid. |

I'm not sure what bands should I name but I'm sure y'all should know: All these kind-of-alternative bands that makes all them fans think they're one level above anyone in music tastes when they're all generic stuff (a lot of bands that play in lollapalooza and coachella). Also, if we talk about books JK Rowling, John Green and all those Twilight, Divergent, Hunger Games fanbases are cancer. |

I can't stand a lot of classic rock fans. Mainly really young ones who think that they're so much better than everyone else for what they listen to, and whine about how "Music is shit nowadays" and they "Wish music was still like this today!" I legitimately can't think of anything that gets on my nerves more than people like that. |

The first thing that came to my head was Radiohead as well for the same reasons you said, the only song I can somewhat stand from them is the first half of "Paraded Android" because it was used as the credits song in Ergo Proxy so I got used to hearing it. Justin Bieber's fans were extremely annoying back in the early 2010's because they all acted like he was amazing when his music was beyond irritating back then (I don't find his new stuff that great either but it doesn't make me want to cover my ears). I also remember when One Direction and The Jonas Brothers were extremely popular, I disliked them for the same reasons I disliked Bieber, their music was annoying and it was really popular so it was hard to avoid and the fan bases were even worst. |

Fans of those "classic" bands/singers. By "classic", I mean bands like the Beatles or Queens or singers like Michael Jackson. The problem with these people is that you must like them or you're a kid that doesn't know anything. |

This depends on everyone personal experience with fanbases really.. I get that fans of 'darker' music can come off as somewhat intimidating though ಠ_ಠ ... personally though, I've been part of an animu community where a lot of the other members constantly talked about rap and how oh so badass those rappers are.. Personally though, I dislike the majority of rap music and being surrounded by people who talked about barely anything else kind of made me dislike the fanbase ¬_¬ |

This may be a strange answer but there are many artists that have the fanbase i hate, so all i can tell you is what kind of fanbase i hate. I hate the fanbases that don't seem to be there for the music, and if you look at the comment sections you can tell. Bands like one direction where they are there just bcuz the band members are hot to nicki minaj where they just talk about drama between artists, who she dating, and her butt. Now obviously some ppl are always there for the music, but when most comments or the majority isn't then it's bad. |

Pretty much every teenager that's a fan of something else other than modern popular music. Especially 15 year olds who think they're metalheads because they listen to Avenged Sevenfold and Disturbed.. |

Metal fans, taylor swift fans, iron maiden/kiss/queen/who fans, aside from a couple of songs I don't understand the appeal of any of those bands, but people never give any reason that they're so acclaimed, aside from "they're just great bands" . In recent times though the worst fanbase are kanye stans. Tlop was such a fucking underwhelming album smfh, but people insisted that it was great."another classic 'ye album" they said, "very experimental album" they said. Rofl. |

1)Bands that appeal to kids who still think the scene kid thing is cool. Bands like BOTDF, Falling In Reverse, Bring Me The Horizon, Pierce The Veil, Black Veil Brides. 2)Teenage classic rock fanboys/girls. Basically, #1 and #2 summed up are kids who think they are unique even though their taste is just as bland and generic as someone who only likes Nicki Minaj or Taylor Swift. 3) Sjw fans of Beyoncé, Nicki Minaj, Zayn Malik. They only care about them because of the color of their skin. |

I have little contact with the contemporary popular music scene, so I can't comment on the relative tendency of today's fan bases to make nuisances out of themselves. My exposure is typically limited to the annual spectacle of the Eurovision Song Contest. Eurovision fans seem to be at least somewhat annoying, but I don't know how they compare to other contemporary fan bases. Annoying fan bases are nothing new. I can come up with some historical examples. In the 1930s, certain male singers attracted that most annoying type of fan - the squeeing fangirl. Rudy Vallee, Russ Columbo, and Bing Crosby were especially popular, and otherwise sane women went completely nuts in their presence. The nuisance level of this fan base was well known enough to be satirized in cartoons of the time. Incidentally, I love these singers, and had I been around in the 1930s, I would have been right there squeeing along with all the other fangirls. By the 1940s, Russ Columbo was dead, and Rudy Vallee had faded, while Bing Crosby was still going strong. Then, Frank Sinatra came along and the fangirls went completely nuts again. His fan base during that decade may well have been one of the most annoying ever, if the satires in contemporary cartoons are to be believed. Over time, the furor gradually faded, but then came Elvis Presley in the 1950s, and a new generation was caught up in a similar mania. My mother was an Elvis freak back then, and by all accounts, she was far too passionate in her appreciation for this singer. In the 1980s, I had the misfortune to experience an annoying fan base in junior high school. There was a huge rivalry between fans of hard rock/heavy metal and fans of new wave music. The new wave people were fairly low key and were noticeable mainly because of their unusual fashion sense but were typically not annoying. The hard rock and heavy metal fans, on the other hand, could be rather in-your-face about their passion, and they delighted in scrawling graffiti all over the school, especially on the desks. I became annoyed with Iron Maiden fans because they were the worst offenders; I got tired of seeing Iron Maiden logos inexpertly scrawled on desks everywhere. |

Lately, it's been Beyonce. They've been perhaps militant in their arguments when it comes to defending the blatant racism/sexism that Lemonade has. If you think the neo-Beliebers are bad, please be informed of the fact that there could be something else out there. Honorary Mentions go to of course, Neo-Beliebers, Nicki Minaj, or One Direction. Cannot stand any of those both with music and the people that defend that stuff. I'll give anything niche-oriented a pass because to be fair, they don't exist in commonplace settings. |

definitely blood on the dancefloor or any other emo bands like that my younger sister is one of them and they try to say that the music is amazing and refuse to respect the fact that other people dont then blast it when absolutely no one wants to hear it im not even biased it's happened to me so many times by preteens and people my age |

Metal as a whole, really. Metal fans (not all, but a good portion) believe that metal is the apex of music, and constantly shit on every other genre, especially stuff like pop and techno. Then, you have a subset of metal elitists that I call the old-school elitists. These people are even worse than normal metal elitists because they think that metal from the 70s, 80s, and 90s are better than modern metal. Don't get me wrong, I listen to a LOT of metal, pretty much everything from Metallica to Slipknot, but I cannot stand metal elitists. |
