This is the opposite of Dave's poll, here are some top NW artists, which one do you think least belongs in the top 12. And, is there one you feel that is missed, and really should be there?

There's no Classix Nouveaux and Howard Jones. Those are two bands I don't like at all. My vote goes for John Lydon.

I'll probably get lynched for this, but to this day I do not understand the appeal of Red Hot Chili Peppers. Some great musicians there, but, to me, many of their songs sound the same. Oh well, to each his own...

The Temple of Hate?

The idea behind this poll was not to put crappy bands as a choice. Most of these are groups I like and/or think are essential. I just wanted to know which the voting public likes the least.
