A littleknown Australian band called Whitenoise had possibly the worst music I've heard.

Their brand of 80s metal had the melodies following the chord progressions EXACTLY. The bassist was singing, so whatever notes he played on the bass (which were always the root notes of the chord), he'd sing.

No harmony. It was so IRRITATING to listen to! No harmony!
ROTFLMAO! Whitenoise! Are you sure it wasn't 'Whitenoize'?
What was that guy's name? Doug, I think? I can't believe you remembered them! So many painfull memories...

I'd have to add Craig McLaughlin to the mix - shocking cover of 'Mona' and a song that went
"Rock the rock, roll the roll,
Beat the beat, sooth my soul."

Also he didn't just come out under his own name, no, his act was called...
'Craig McLaughlin And Check, 1, 2.'
