foreigner is a piece of shite band

They had a few decent early songs and pretty much went to shite but the answer to the OP is a resounding NO. I'll gladly submit:
-- Poison
-- Nickelback
-- Quiet Riot

That's three right off the top of my head in the rock/metal genre alone.

There are many bands that are much worse.

Foreigner is a decent band

High n dry and pyromania were very good, everything else sucks. Hysteria is horrible and Pour Some Sugar On Me is one of the worst rock songs ever.

ETA: the OP was "well known" bands. I took that to mean the worst of the good bands. So DL is good.

I didn't want to say Def Leppard out of respect because I read once that you really liked them...but the lead singer's voice makes me want to fill my ears with portland cement.

I had a six month period not too long ago where I really started liking some of their stuff. Then I realized how vapid it was and meh...

Since this thread is about Foreigner I will go ahead and post my (probable) favorite song of theirs.

Dirty White Boy

Just like the guitars right out of the gate on this one.

If you are leaning on "I Wanna Know What Love Is" and "Waiting For A Girl Like You", I get it.

However, if you rollout "Dirty White Boy", "Feels Like The First Time" and "Long, Long Way From Home" I gotta say no as those songs have some solid guitar work.

My fricking dude. Most untalented, trashiest band of all time. Easily.
