Top 10 Whiniest Bands
Bands that complain about issues that usually a teenager would complain about and they're often immature because of it. These bands have immature lyrics and generally are hard to take seriously.
Simple Plan is a French-Canadian pop rock/pop-punk band from Montreal, Quebec. The band has released six albums. Their third (self-titled) album is a sort of subversion. It does feature some mature tracks and shows signs of the band making mature lyrics and music. And in all honesty, they should have kept to that direction. The fourth album as a small selection of songs that are passable, but the rest is disposable. Taking One For The Team is absolute garbage and a pathetic display of regression for a band whose members are nearing the age of 40.
Most of their songs have whiny themes, and you can even tell from the title that it will be a whiny song (think In a Perfect World, God Must Hate Me, or How Could this Happen to Me).
This band is a cheap rip off Blink-182. Their songs are so whiny, the vocalist in unbearable.
I can actually laugh at their whiny songs.
Black Veil Brides is an American rock band currently consisting of Andy Biersack (vocals), Jinxx (guitar), Jake Pitts (guitar), Christian Coma (drums) and Ashley Purdy (bass), that formed in 2006 in Ohio.
In the beginning of their career, the band was heavily associated with the emo subculture, and had strong metalcore, screamo and alternative influences, however got more metal oriented over the years. Their songs usually carry a message of acceptance, believing in yourself and being individual and different. Among their most well known songs are "Knives and Pens", "Rebel Love Song", "In the End" and "Fallen Angels". Whiniest band ever.Their music just consists of generic riffs found in almost all Screamo/Post Hardcore bands and their vocalist Andy Biersack is a whiny singer who is ugly and whines all the time.-DarkBoi-X
Whiny and painful to sit through.
Whiny as can be

Fall Out Boy is an American pop punk band formed in Wilmette, Illinois, a suburb of Chicago, in 2001. The band consists of vocalist and guitarist Patrick Stump, bassist Pete Wentz, guitarist Joe Trohman, and drummer Andy Hurley. My Chemical Romance is also whiny but at least Gerard Way sounds a lot more tolerable than Patrick Stump's painfully whiny vocals and lyrics.
Screw this band.
Bowling for Soup is an American rock band originally formed in Wichita Falls, Texas, in 1994. The band consists of Jaret Reddick, Chris Burney, Erik Chandler, and Gary Wiseman. Lots of Pop Punk bands with the exceptions of Green Day, The All American Rejects, Sum 41, The Offspring and Blink 182 come off as whiny. This band sure as hell is no exception.
This band sucks.

Tom DeLonge left the band in 2015 and was replaced by Matt Skiba.
Tom DeLonge returned in October 2022, bringing the classic line-up back I don't see "whiny" as a bad thing, I mean it most likey appeals to certain teens but hey it appeals to people and it's not anyones place to judge people for liking an innocent music genre(s)/style/trait. I like some of these bands and there's nothing wrong with that.
Is the singer a grape?

Although I'm not really a fan, I can say that A7X has made some mature and experimental tracks throughout its career. Also, M. Shadows has a good voice. Yeah, their Metalcore days were shoddy and whiny, but the band has grown for the better, so they've averted an embarrassing status.
M. Shadow does have a very well whiny voice...
Although I like this band, I respect your opinion, some songs on the stage album sound kind of whiny a little bit
