Most overrated bands ever?

Luxoran · 06-29-2009, 02:06 PM

U2

Primarily because of Bono's mug in the "100 Most Influential People of All Time" manifest. I HIGHLY doubt that claim and all who support it. [and also Bush, but let's not get into that]

But in essence, aren't ALL bands overrated? In one eye or another, every band is inevitably going to get slammed with that Overrated symbol that's proven itself more than difficult to avoid. [Oh, genres]

But HEY, we all have opinions. It's what makes this world work like it does. [crappily] =]

And funnily enough Kurt Cobain was a huge fan of them...

Yes, but if a lot of people think a band is overrated, then it probably isn't. So a band can be more or less overrated then another.

I suppose you're correct on that account.

AC/DC isn't overrated, everyone knows they wrote three songs their entire career and just changed the keys and lyrics.

Foo Fighters? Overrated?

Sure, The Pretender is a waaaaaaay overrated song by them, but come on, The Foo's are not overrated.

^ Yes they are. They don't live up to the acclaim they receive in any way. Dave Grohl is particularly overrated... people saying he's a music mastermind and stuff. No.

You must give him some credit though. I mean who expected the drummer of the most simplistic band ever to write as much as he did. Sure its not groundbreaking and filled with new ideas, but certainly serves its purpose.
