I wouldn't say they are over-rated. Their first two albums are very solid, and songs like Everlong are considered classic. I personally ain't that much of a fan of their later work, but its still not bad and they are a great live band. Another reason why I support them, is that they are one of the very few genuine rock bands in the mainstream right now. I also have tons of respect for Mr. Grohl. After Cobain passed away, he could have quit and just use Nirvana royalties to pay his bills, but he decided to start a new band. He freaking recorded the entire first record by himself.
Nirvana is one of my favourite bands of all time. It's hard for me to find a band that mixes Punk, Pop and Metal all into one awesome package. There basically isn't anything to be said about them that hasn't been said already. I leave it off with an unreleased song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DKa-TDRJs54
I'll post some bands that haven't been said already. Nirvana, The Smiths, My Bloody Valentine, The New Pornographers, Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, Uriah Heep, Neil Young's rock stuff, David Bowie, Iggy Pop/ The Stooges, The Clash, The Stone Roses, Joy Division, Slowdive, Weezer (Early stuff only), Sonic Youth, Yuck, The Drums.
When you are in a band, you must state the band's goals, whether it is just playing for fun, or only a certain genre, you must make things clear in order for the band to work. You obviously are upset with your band and you seem like you want to leave, so you might as well just do that.
Thanks guitarist lol. But ya, i think i should just make stuff up in my head like riffs, harmonies, and choruses first and try applying them with a guitar. I just have trouble with what sounds go with what. One thing i really wanna do is have a nice rhythm going and have the 2nd guitar do some arpegios and stuff to make a harmony out of it.

Fine, i'll be serious here. Music theory will definetly help you to find out what notes make what scales, apegios and chords, also helps you find out what goes with what. Also realize that music theory is a theory, there is no true right or wrong. As you play more and more, you will think of more ideas and songs. This is great, just keep practicing and in time you will able to transfer what is in your head to playing and eventually recording it. For beginners, just try to get the root notes down and then figure out the chords. Find out what chord progression you have and what scales/arpeggios you think fit best. Add harmonies and anything else after. Here is all the chords for the major scales if you want it : D
C Major...- C - Dm - Em - F - G - Am - B G Major...- G - Am - Bm - C - D - Em - F# D Major...- D - Em - F#m - G - A - Bm - C# A Major...- A - Bm - C#m - D - E - F#m- G# E Major...- E - F#m- G#m- A - B - C#m- D# B Major...- B - C#m- D#m- E - F#- G#m- A# F# Major - F#- G#m- A#m- B - C#- D#m- E# C# Major - C#- D#m- E#m- F#- G#- A#m- B#
F Major...- F - Gm - Am - Bb- C - Dm - E Bb scale - Bb- Cm - Dm - Eb- F - Gm - A Eb scale - Eb- Fm - Gm - Ab- Bb- Cm - D Ab scale - Ab- Bbm- Cm - Db- Eb- Fm - G Db scale - Db- Ebm- Fm - Gb- Ab- Bbm- C Gb scale - Gb- Abm- Bbm- Cb- Db- Ebm- F Cb scale - Cb- Dbm- Ebm- Fb- Gb- Abm- Bb
