I think def leppard are fucking terrible. I know some people dig em but I don't get it so I'm gonna say they're over rated. I mean the only thing they ever did that I find listenable is "pour some sugar on me" and I take it with the same attitude I take a weird al song because it is so ridiculous. I think Van Halen are over rated too. Mostly because of eddie. I don't think their music was as innovative as alot of people think. Diamond Dave was cool and I like his voice still but Eddie to me, while a great player, never felt like his playing was distinctive. His solos and guitar lines always sound impersonal to me.
While I am not the biggest Beatles fan I am a fan of their latter work and I think one thing you have to consider when saying they or the stones are over rated is that without them odds are we wouldn't have alot of these other bands that are listed. In alot of ways they started it all so I think that is something to be considered before labeling them "over rated".

Do you know what word I associate with Nirvana's music? "Catchy". A lot of it is throwaway stuff. Nice shit to sing along to, yet dosn't have too much of an impact on you.
However, "In Utero" could be the exception there...
So "catchy" is a drawback from a band now?
It's not the easiest thing in the world to write a song as catchy as some of Nirvana's tunes. Not to mention that their songs are also more "rock" than most bands. A song having an "impact" on someone doesn't necessarily mean they have to break down into tears every time they hear it.

Nirvana, without a doubt is the most overrated. I like some of their stuff, but they don't deserve to be even mentioned in the same post as The Beatles or Led Zep. They aren't that good. It's amazing how a band can go from being halfway decent to the most amazing band ever simply by having the lead singer put a gun to his head and pulling the trigger.
Hey, maybe Kid Rock will improve his music by doing that.

I have to say my choice is Kiss - i just really don't get them. ?When your young you think ah they look like they could be cool (going by the pics of them). ?
Then when you actually listen to them, it's just slushy pop sprayed sliver and covered in flames lol. Via their merchandise, they think they are star trek or something. con-mercial is the fucking word for them heh I even saw Kiss coffins the other day!?
Sorry i know they have alot of dedicated followers but i have tried and just dont get them.
I agree with this. I used to be a HUGE Kiss fan - until it finally dawned on me that they are just about the money and nothing more. It took me a while to come to this revelation, I'll admit, because I had the rose colored glasses and Kiss could do no wrong. But when they dumped Kulick and Singer to reband the original line up (which, I admit I did like better) it proved to me that they were all about money and didn't care about anything else. Ugh... now I need to go take another shower, just talking about Kiss makes me feel all slimy.

... There have been hundreds of bands in the world... some have changed the Music Scene forever with the power, talent, and drive required to make it... some others just were overrated ...
Some people say GNR was overrated... its just a
matter of opinion
The most overrated band in the world... and still nowadays.... is definitively
NIRVANA
.... what a piece of crap in my
humble opinion
....
whether you like it or not... we must be objective too... it sucks...

Radiohead. They just seem like a whiny group that makes boring uninteresting self-indulgent music.
Maroon 5 suck too, I don't know why they're so popular.

Nobody will remember they 2 years from now. We?re talkin here of REALLY overrated bands, and that is DEFINATELY Nivana. I mean, they have cool songs, their acoustic is awesome, but nothin to be blown away.

Definitely RHCP for me also.
I will say though that although I love Nirvana, the media is responsible for over hyping them. Nirvana did not invent Grunge. Soundgarden, Mudhoney, hell I wont list them all but there were many "Grunge" bands around before Nirvana debuted with Bleach. How the hell Rolling Stone could rate Kurt as the #5 guitarist of all time just boggles my mind. If anything, knowing now what Dave Grohl is capable of doing musically, Nirvana should have been much better than it was.

Lol, did they? I wonder on what grounds u could support that? He was a good guitarist and wrote many good guitar riffs/solo's but claiming he's the 5th best is dodgy....
