One notch below a hair band. Any '80s/ early '90s glam or pop metal band whose music is so appallingly awful that it doesn't evem deserve to be called a hair band.
Poison is a decent hair band. Nothing special, but they have some listenable tunes. Winger, on the other hand, doesn't even rise to that level. They're what I'd call a root band.

Most often resulting from an overblown ego and heightened sense of self importance linked to root privileges.
2) A cavalier attitude toward others with lesser user privileges.
A characteristic of most Unix System Administrators.
