Bon Scott AC/DC...no way.

But Brian Johnson/Back and Black and later, yes.

I also can't stand most 80's "hair" metal and Guns N Roses. It's like everybody between the ages 20 and 35 owns at least one Poison cd.

I can't forget to throw in dragonforce, that's getting this surge of popularity, lately.

They're not talented. They have skill at the guitar, but they have no skills in musical composition. Their songs lack variety and structure.

Has nobody mentioned a hip-hop/R & B/rap/whatever the hell it's called "artist"?!?? 50 Cent, N.W.A., Kanye West, MIMS, G-Unit, Wu Tang Clan, etc. For other genres, I would have to say Beethoven is highly over-rated. The same with Slipknot, Linkin Park, Limp Bizkit, the Baja Men, and Tenacious D.

I would say either the Grateful Dead or the Sex Pistols is my quick knee-jerk reaction to this question. Lord_Daemon

Some of those rappers you named are actually pretty good. You just have to give them a shot. I was the same way until I opened my mind to other genres of music. Are the Baja Men even highly rated?

Every band in the entire world is overrated because, one large group of people likesa bandand, a small group of people dislikes the same band and claims it's "overrated". And it's like that for every band. That's why these threads are pointless.

Because a band has fans does not necessarily make them overrated. They become overrated when it's considered "ccol" to like the band.

You said "every band." I was just wondering you really meant that.

thats it. shame on you. you triggered a rant about slipknot. they are only overrated among themselves. they cantwrite worth a damn andthere are much more talented musicians in the metal genre.they were below average when theyfirst came around, then they got progessively worse. instead of working on making better music,they come outmore elaborate masks. the only reason they got the reasonable success in sales they did(itsnot even that big compared tosales of bands in other genres) was because they were one of the screaming bands that occasionally got radio playtime. soteens in their car heard themand thought they would be hardcore by listening to them. any aspect of their music is done betterby other bands(technicality, speed, lyrics, or just sheer aggression). yet cory (their singer) has the balls tothink he's better than popular bands and says (on playboy magazine of all places) that he earned his success. i have more to say but ill spare anyone who made it this far.

/end rant

Because a band has fans does not necessarily make them overrated. They become overrated when it's considered "cool" to like the band.

Obviously, you obviously didint understand my post.And eventually hating the band will become cool and it won't be overrated anymore and people will move on to something else. It also becomes overrated when it's hated. I agree when it's considered "cool" by a large group of people.

In Southeastern Canada, people were ranting and raving about the Baja Men for two whole years. I will never stop hating them just for that. >_> I'll admit that Kanye West and the Wu Tang Clan are actually pretty good, but they are over-rated, not terrible.
