Not really bands/songs so much, as music tropes or things that you hate.
For me, I hate when female-fronted bands have a great, sometimes classically trained singer with a great voice, but then a dreadful male backup/co vocalist who completely ruins the song. Lacuna Coil are a huge offender. They're great when Cristina is singing, but when the male singer pipes up (which is in alot of songs) it becomes dreadful. So many good songs are spoilt by him. Nightwish are the same, if you've got great singers like Annette and Tarja then... really, don't let the terrible male singer have a turn. The male singer single-handedly ruined "I wish I had an Angel"
Another pet hate, songs which have a really short 2nd verse. Like, the first verse is quite long but verse 2 is only a couple of lines. That bugs me. Wait and Bleed falls victim to this, great first verse and chorus and then it falls apart. Presumably because Corey ran out of lyrics.
Songs which try to pass "Ba de da da", "Dum da da,", "la las" and similar phrases off as actual lyrics.

I was trying to figure out what the hell a "musical pet" is.

In the Country genre when someone purposely over does their accent to seem more "country".

I don't like when there's a whistling section in your song. Get the f*** outta here with that!

When the singer says 'this next song is called...' in a concert (AKA, the Corey Taylor special).
I just like when they go into the next song and the let the crowd be surprised.

Anyone who says the “Rumours” line-up of Fleetwood Mac is the original.
People who call that Tina Turner song “Simply the Best”.

It may seem petty but, groups that play no instruments in any fashion being referred to as a "band." Boy Bands, for example.
Also, and this will probably show ignorance on my part so I apologize beforehand, rappers doing Unplugged shows. Now, I realize there are some that have replaced beats and samples with actual instrumentals so that's different, but yeah...

Rhyming home, phone and alone.
Being asked what music I like feels like I'm being attacked and none of the many ways to say random shit is not an acceptable answer. It's a weird hang up.

The excessive usage of bitch and the n word in rap.

Songs where there's more instrumental passages than vocals. Im looking at you, Megadeth's Hangar 18.

In the Country genre when someone purposely over does their accent to seem more "country". This happens a lot in the bafflingly popular Irish Country genre. Singers who have never left Co Donegal in their lives singing like they grew up on a ranch in Texas. Here's an example youtu.be/ymoAq_inLQk |

(W/ guest artist who sings in a completely different genre style to the song) interludes, sometimes they blend in well, but a lot of the time it sounds like the song has been completely interrupted by another song.
It’s like you are listening to song and suddenly change the radio station... or a bad rave DJ mix.
Example: Nicki Minaj in Alicia Keyes’ “This Girl is on Fire”

Sampling. And yes, I've heard all the various justifications people have for it, but I just don't care for it. It's a huge musical turn-off for me.

I hate when musicians mime in concert.
I can tolerate backing tracks being used sometimes to accompany what's being played live.
I cannot tolerate musicians relying heavily on backing tracks when people have paid money to see them perform live.
Roger Waters puts on an epic visual show but I'm paying to hear him sing the songs I love live.
Watch videos of ZZ Top playing "Legs" and be astonished at how Billy is able to sound exactly like he did on the original recording...

There's two phrases I particularly hate
"Lovin' cup" and "Make romance"
