The Jonas Brothers, I can't stand them. People I go to school with still listen to them and obsess over them, grow up!

i'm gonna go out on a limb, maybe spark an argument, or maybe it won't and I'll get ass raped by comments because I thought such generic choices would start an argument.

Blur
Bad Religion
The Mars Volta
Leftover Crack
The Clash
311
Stone Temple Pilots
Red Hot Chili Peppers, including their old stuff.
Arctic Monkeys
Animal Collective
Coming from me I'd guess this'd be a surprise so I'm gonna say Nirvana.

Even though I like Blur i'd go along with that.

Even with a whole music weekly and the mainstream press behind them going on & on & on about them they still couldn't top Oasis.

The Clash however deserved ever bit of hype they ever got because they are that awesome.

I was just going to say that. It takes a lot to be "the only band that mattered" in 77, but they managed somehow.

I honest to god cannot see how anyone would rate oasis over blur, it just makes no sense whatsoever.

in response to your post, BTown787

The Mars Volta-while they're not the best band, i think they're really doing alot for music these days are one of the better groups in the scene
The Clash-see Urban and Rick's posts
311-agreed
Stone Temple Pilots-in some ways i agree, but as far as musicianship goes, i think they're very underrated and should get a bit more hype in that department
Red Hot Chili Peppers, including their old stuff.-new stuff yeah, but old stuff? really?
Nirvana-yea, but still it's usually for the wrong reasons

In regards to the Stone Temple Pilots, what ways do you agree with?
I think they are overrated for the wrong reasons and I agree musically they desevre more credit, I'm a fan of their bassist. and I can't agree more with your nirvana comment.

The Mars Volta also falls under the category of being overrated for the wrong reasons, Thomas Pridgen is a tank and I never hear much about him.

Oh, and just because I say these bands are overrated doesn't mean I don't like them.
