20. N-Dubz – Some of our American readers may never have heard of N-Dubz. Lucky them. The hip-pop trio concoct the type of music that's so terrible, banging you head repetitively against a radiator would be a more pleasurable experience.

- No K-Fed? Where's She Wants Revenge? They're the Pussycat Dolls of the post-punk genre (let's take Interpol, throw a faux goth sheen over it, dumb down the lyrics to the delight of middle schoolers, use Joy Division sounding song titles to cover it up).
