Dig Out Your Soul was great. I do still think they are completely overrated though. Sonically they never changed much. Neither did AC/DC I suppose, but that's probably a good thing, despite the newest album being about trains from what I can gather.

Plenty of great records have been made by bands off they're heads too. See : The Magical Mystery Tour.

Coldplay I can kinda sympathise with. I do love them, but they aren't the best band in the world today. But then again, neither are Muse.

YEAH I WENT THERE.

Muse > Britney Spear's b-sides > your life > Coldplay.

Oh honey if we're going to bring Britney into this, and don't, because Mark will cry, she'd be somewhere inbetween The Hoosiers and Scouting For Girls on a relevance scale.

Am I the only Coldplay fan here?

Tell it to the man, brah.

I used to like Green Day when they were singing about dope and girlfriends, but that whinny fucks voice just get's on my nerves when it's put to the ''Down With Bush, dudes!'' use.

The less said about the 'phonics, the better. A solid rock band with good tunes. Nothing more. Ever.

Agreed.

"American Idiot" is possibly the most overrated, overplayed piece of **** song. Argh, I can't ****ing stand it.

Before I even read this thread my eyes went 'U2U2 U2U2'. Honestly they have produced some solid work, Sometimes You Can't Make On Your Own is fantastic, With or Without You is good too, but I find a lot of there earlier stuff and certainly all of their current stuff to be totally generic crap.

Wanted to vent my hate for Westlife, despite the fact they're not really a band. Overrated tosspots.

Because they don't write all the material, they don't play the instruments, and the vocals are autotuned?

You a fan?
