yeah cold play blows balls thats for sure.

Also U2 is another one to name.  Good band but by no means the Worlds Greatest like some make them out to be.

I'll throw up Primus. They opened for U2 and they just noodled; I couldn't discern a single song. Just a sonic wall of garbage for 45 minutes.
They're the antipop band, sorry if you weren't aware, but another band that isn't overrated, just misunderstood.

Most people on here are just naming bands they don't like because they don't like that style of music...that has nothing to do with being overrated or not. Most of you are idiots.

You're wrong when you say that peeps are just naming bands that they don't like Arnold Jr, case in point, I said that Rush is certainly overated, even though I like the power trio out of Canda ;D

Kurt never cared about the fame, but he always cared about making music.

A great record.



"Hairspray Queen" is a fucking classic along with Aneurysm and "Dive".  8)

everyone only knows those three songs from nevermind and that's it.

at least Nirvana was original.  even in grunge they were distinctly different from the others.

Misunderstood because they occasionally feel the need to snack on salty bananas from below the equator?

Alice in Chains,Nirvana, Soundgarden and Pearl jam are all good bands....

it's not their fault that the media machine deified all things Seattle for half of the 90's....they were just dudes in a band and made some killer music

Radiohead, fucking weirdos

Radiohead makes some excellent music. just because it's not the easily digestible Pop crap that you enjoy doesn't mean it's not good. they are universally lauded by music critics worlwide

Like someone else said....people are just naming bands they don't like....not ones that are overrated.

Oasis....now that's an overrated band...because they really have not lived up to the hype and really didn't do jack-shit to begin with.

By the same token you can't say U2 is overrated...They have produced 4 or 5 seminal records, still make decent music and fill arenas year after year after year.

Maybe you don't like them, but they aren't "overrated' by any stretch, they are a huge band and live up to the accolades
