Todd in the Shadow's dedicated subreddit! Watch Todd's One Hit Wonderland, where he takes a look at the full careers of bands and artists known for only one song, or watch Todd's Pop Song Reviews, where he takes one current smash hit song and take it apart, break it down line by line, see what parts work and what doesn't, and analyze where it fits within both current trends and the artists' body of work.
Let's make some truly cursed supergroups. I'll start.

The Worldwides: Pitbull, Flo Rida, Jason Derülo, Sean Kingston, Akon, Taio Cruz, and Jay Sean

Hootie and the BlowPhish are the NKOTBSB of 90s rock.
Helloween exists
I mean a cross between them and Ween
Creed Clearwater Revival would actually probably be listenable, as opposed to most of these. It would still be terrible, but not as terrible as a lot of these.
What if I turned it into the Creed Clearwater Revivalists
Better yet, Creed Clearwater Revisited ("Revisited" was a version of the band with just Doug and Stu)
Matchbox Twenty One Pilots
DefTones and I-ron Maiden
Viagra Boys II Men At Work
LCD Soundsystem Of A Down
Reel Big Phish
Florence & The Rage Against The Machine

It was right in front of me and I didn't even realize it...
I lowkey want Florence and the Rage Against the Machine
I lost my mind at Viagra Boys II Men At Work. This is truly a work of art.
Fleetwood Tom MacDonald is the worst thing I've ever read.
REM Speedwagon
They’re both pretty jangly, so it could maybe not be a total disaster.
Bee Gee Allin
That's it, you win, everyone else can go home
Amazing.

Manic Street Preacher’s Daughter (Manic Street Preachers x Ethel Cain)
Jimmy Eat Worldwide (Jimmy Eat World x Pitbull)
Imagine DragonForce
I'm morbidly curious about how that would sound.

It would probably sound a lot like R.E.M.'s Up, which I don't think would be a bad thing.
