U2 [Joshua Tree is amazing, but for the most part they are completely overrated].
Arctic Monkey's [What revolution? Just sounds like plain ol' boring indie rock]. Coldplay [About as dynamic as watching a cat do your tax returns]. |

Their earlier stuff is excellent though and I really love Achtung Baby but yeah, I'm not a particularly huge fan.

I might do a poll. I was also thinking of The Beatles and Nirvana

Nirvana certainly but the Beatles? No Beatles, no Oasis. It's as simple as that. I know the Beatles have become 'cool' on the internet to diss as being nothing much, but let's face it, John & Paul were a genius songwriting team, most of the albums were masterpieces, they broke so many moulds it's amazing they still had shoulders, and the sonic experimentation and studio production techniques they used, for the time, were both innovative and amazing.
In fact, they inspired the dub reggae movement with regards to studio-as-instrument practices. Which in turn inspired a sickening amount of music, including a lot of post Punk. In fact, almost every band on the planet owes something either to the Beatles or Kraftwerk. True fact. |

I'm inclined to say Radiohead. Potentially controversial - but I've given a lot of their material a listen, and, whilst I love about 5 tracks, I find the majority incredibly boring and don't see where the hype is.

Not really a fan of Radiohead, they just seem a student band to me, like Muse. Plus the song 'Creep' drives me crazy.

Radiohead are definitely overrated. Let's face it, quiet a lot of the back catalog is just droning ambient music with Thom Yorke's vocals pasted over the top. They didn't reinvent the wheel so much as stick a pin in it and push it up a steep hill.

I like Pyramid Song, Karma Police and No Surprises. And Creep too. But that's all. Nude was okay.
I can't think of any more bands I'd say are overrated. There's many I dislike but can respect - Elvis in particular. Really don't get his style of music at all, but can appreciate how revolutionary it was.

Oh yeah, Sex Pistols. Yes, they inspired a whole load of bands, but they were an [empty] statement more than anything else.
One great album. A glorified bassist who could not actually play bass. A lead singer who realized it was going to go nowhere so he formed Public Image. And *drumroll* people calling them one of the greatest bands of all time. One of the greatest musical events of all time? You bet. Band? Give me a break. |

About half of the bands NME big up as the 'next big thing'. For me it's surely anything featuring Pete Doherty.

They're disgusting. I used to casually buy the magazine every so often, now I just don't bother, it's not even biased reviewing, it's just erratic and pointless.

I don't know anybody who overrates Bon Jovi. Most people realize them for the acidic, wimpy, self pitying bag of cat **** that they are.
Which neatly brings me on to Nickleback. |

The Jonas Brothers
Theres good bands out there that arent even looked at twice because they might not be viewed as 'Hot' by girls. I think the Jonas Brothers are only famous because of Disney where as there is bands who actually work to get famous. JB Dont deserve fame, Im just glad the UK doesnt go Gaga over them as much as Americans do
