A good example of a band that I don't think are uncool but others do, because they weren't cool to admit liking at a certain time, is Oasis.
I get that if you are from a certain generation, their popularity, the dickwad behaviour etc provided plenty of scope for them not to be 'cool' to like.
If you weren't forming likes or establishing tastes in their heyday though and ignore the personalities they have some brilliant music in their collections. Pretty rare that I would flick past one of their songs if it came on. But among some company I would expect derision.Swap Oasis for Green Day and I', the same for most of their music

I've never looked at music as being cool or uncool, good or bad. To me, there is the music you like and the music you don't like.
Totally agree, which is why this thread is a bit weird. The uncool part is in the eyes of others.

Stan Bush, and his "heavy medal" fellow travellers, have received ironic appreciation since You've Got the Touch was used in Boogie Nights, but everyone, including me, thinks he sucks ass. The Bloodsport theme is a good one for jogging though, and the "kumite" bit ... kinda bangs.
You've got the touch from Transformers the Movie is absolutely epic. Any kid who saw that scene would say the same thing.

I've glimpsed through the thread and I think you're all trying too hard.
"Listen to this cool as fuck music that nobody has ever heard of but I can laugh about because if I day it's lame I'm a supercool music aficionado "
Let go of 'the cool' people, and embrace your inner lame.
Try something like:
Electric Blue by Icehouse
The Climb by Mikey Cyrus
The Living Years by Mike and The Mechanics
actually anything by Mike and The Mechanicsthere are more ... Just let me think ..
Never Forget by Take That
Can't stand them otherwise but that song does it for me for some reason. -
Hmm. Less than 50 posts in and I've learnt I like a lot of uncool music.

I find this thread a bit weird to be honest. The uncool tag is very subjective anyway but it then has the element of being uncool within a certain genre only.
Pantera? Never knew they were uncool as they are just another heavy rock band in my ears and I dont differentiate one from another.
I thought it was about songs/bands that are universally uncool but you have a listenI think @booboo has it right
Leave it there and mute it then.

Hungover, getting ready for the day, Falklands. This is how the day starts
Annoying everyone else on The Goose corridor by playing this loud
I actually prefer their version of Behind Blue Eyes too
