Critically shunned, labelled as corny, phony, cheesy, lame, dumb, gay, or whatever, just as long as it hasn't been re-evaluated, reclaimed, or redeemed. You can't claim Italo Disco here, for example.
Kid Rock couldn't be less cool, and the production is solidly nu-metal, but this song still bangs, and the DB Cooper reference is gold.

I always felt ashamed for secretly enjoying that shit.
Edit: I might need to add a new folder to my music collection: "Shit" - but fill it with these kind of super-super-guilty-pleasures.

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.

@tim have you seen his new song?
It's unbelievably bad
And Weird Al flamed the fuck out of him
It's a song that "Monster Truck" band put out five years ago. Generic classic rock/grunge radio stuff.

Yeah - I suspect it's going to be a source for a fair few downloads of "bangin' trash" to put on a ridin'-some-twisties playlist.

@mariner4life The original version's video was shot at an Alberta tar-sands excavation site, to establish that bands credentials!

I've got just the movie queued up to tide me over.

Yes, it's so "of its time" it may as well be time stamped
Yes it's dripping in testosterone and Monster
It has a stupid satirical videoBut holy shit if you aren't giving that scrunch-nosed "oh yeah" face and bobbing your head when the main riff and drums kick in then there's something wrong with you

@mariner4life LOL, I know a guy in Warkworth who rocks that shit on the reg.

@tim yeah I kind of like All Summer Long too ... in fact, I bought the Rock n Roll Jesus album ...
I haaaaaate that song
I hate Sweet Home Alabama too

I'm not generally a death / grind core / scream metal fan. But these two songs of The Great Southern Trendkill I absolutely love. No idea why.
Can certainly only play it when nobody else is around ... which is usually at about volume level 10 when picking up the kids from school. I'm not exactly the cool Dad in the parking lot.

@majorrage Pantera were in the dumb bogan category for a while, but they've been regarded as solid metal for a long time. Doesn't fit this thread - they are way too respected.
