Most overrated band of all time

[TOGIE]

There is some fantastic country that has been put out in the last 10+years.

It’s an overrated opinion that any country post “x” date is automatically overrated.

Buncha low lifes

Beatles, no contest, but U2 is nipping at their heels.

Good lord. This thread definitely confirmed there are a plethora of people here with loose screws.

Kiss tied with Bruce Springsteen.

Kiss until you see them live.

I think a big part of the allure of the Grateful Dead is being part of the “club.” Similar with KISS, Phish, Insane Clown Posse Juggalos, Taylor’s ‘Swifties’ etc.

Some people enjoy being part of that fan group and I suspect a sense of community comes with it- more power to them, if people enjoy it then who am I to judge.

Sure….but those other bands can sing in tune.

I enjoy a good jam band as much as any other kind of music, I just don’t really get the cult following of this particular band. I may be biased, as Eugene seems particularly obsessed.

Foo Fighters

100% agree with this one. Almost every song sounds the same to me.

The last 25 years were not kind to their legacy.

The last 43 years you mean

The last 43 years you mean

I like the 90s Peppers stuff

I wouldn't say overrated, just very....GAY!

Nah, just proves to me that none of yall actually listen to country.

I could name 5 legitimately quality country bands real quick that have been in active in the last 15 years.

There are two veins of country as I see it. There’s the pop stuff where everyone sounds the same, and has nearly the same name. Then there’s the Chris Stapleton, and Stephen Wilson Jr. style stuff. They’re amazing.

It’s been that way forever too. There isn’t much shortage of good country available right now IMO.

That said, I do find Chris Stapleton a bit overrated

 

[Gerald Martin]

Seven pages in and no one mentioned Milli Vanilli?

 

[Bow Bullet]

Springsteen, The Rolling Stones, and Genesis/Phil Collins. Hard to think of any of their songs that don't make me want to turn them off.

 

[Rack Daniels]

Lots of people going with the music-I-hate approach to coming up with an answer. That doesn't necessarily mean it is overrated.

Hey! I like ONE song by tom petty!?
I was wondering if I was allowed to like anything from said overrated band. Glad we got that cleared up!

When it comes to shitte' music, no one occupies the same universe with 'the (hahaha) boss'
