Why they might be annoying:

    They're more known for influencing Ministry, KMFDM and Nine Inch Nails than for making music.
    What kind of a name is Skinny Puppy?
    Much like Robert Smith, they overtly 'goth-ed' their appearance.
    Many of the band members were addicted to various drugs, including cocaine, speed and heroin.
    Some of the members had tattoos.
    Nivek used to drench himself in animal blood for concerts.

Why they might not be annoying:

    During concerts, they had a giant screen that played videos, much like Trent Reznor did with Nine Inch Nails concerts.
    Unlike Smith's The Cure, they had up-beat songs and songs dealing with political issues.
    After releasing 1996's 'The Process,' Dwayne died.
    After his death, the band broke up out of respect for their fallen comrade.
