As for me, I would say my favorite mediocre bands are:
Violent Femmes
The Darkness
Crash Test Dummies
Guster
Rollins Band
Bloodhound Gang
I agree. All of those bands are terrible.

Except the Violent Femmes, who became terrible after "Why Do Birds Sing?" Prior to that, they are excellent and some of the true american indy pioneers, signing with Slash records just to prove a point.

Henry Rollins was awesome in his Black Flag days. Black Flag is still worth checking out if you are into the american punk movement.

Crash Test Dummies? Yikes. "Afternoons and Coffee Spoons! And TS Elliot!....."

Someone recommended Guster to me. I listened to 2 songs and never listened to that band again.
