Most overrated bands ever?

Blain · 07-14-2006, 12:15 AM

Well, it was an extremely popular song by an extremely popular band (Which I like thank you very much *Hmph*)So I'm not surprised they won one for it, but I would've thought it'd be for In The End

They were good at the start, but yes, I would agree that they're over-rated. it's a classic example of what you were talking about earlier, that a band being over-rated doesn't mean that they're Sh*t, it just means that they don't live up to their popularity.

P.O.D., the beatles, slipknot, NFG, I could go on for hours.

MoonlitSunshine · 07-14-2006, 10:39 AM

Ok, leave out the Beatles and i'd agree with you.

Slipknot - they make noise not music

MoonlitSunshine · 07-14-2006, 12:14 PM

oohhhh new guy! In some cases, yes, but that's only the stuff they have a habit of releasing, they do play some actual music as well.

Totally agree with Slipknot, I think they are dreadful.

Only decent song I think Slipknot has is "Before I Forget". And even then, the opening is probably the best part.

Well that's not completely true, they have some alright songs

Before I forget, Duality, Wait and Bleed , Purity wasn't bad they're alright to listen to occasionally
