That's a fun topic idea.  Deerhoof and Lightning Bolt are definitely the two she absolutely despises.  I've been pretty lucky with everything else...especially considering she's a reformed hippie.

While they are not my favorite band, my wife absolutely can't stand Ladytron.

I've found a trend, many of my ex-girlfriends hated bands with unique singing styles like Xiu Xiu, Joanna Newsom, Antony & The Johnsons, Mountain Goats, etc
 
 My current girlfriend wants nothing to do with my disco or jazz albums   :(
