Most over rated band of all time

My only complaint about country is that it's just pop music in disguise these days.
Jones, Cash, Nelson, Twitty, etc. Classic country is a top shelf form of music. Keith Urban type of country is pretty much equal to the Backstreet Boys
Can't believe no one has said Green Day yet. It's funny how they are seemingly adored by millions, yet everyone bags on Nickleback because all of their songs sound alike. Green Day was perfecting that 20 years ago.
Just having a little fun with you. They have obviously fostered a cottage industry around them, as you can see.
Oh I know, You either love 'em or hate 'em. I dont care if people arent into their sound/style, but you cannot argue their talent. Thats just me though
You may not like Nirvana's music but they opened the door for so many artists of the 90's. They took us from hair bands to the music of the 90s.
As for Bush, they really are not put up there like other bands. They are not great but not bad and are treated that way.
So much this.
I know producers will roll out whatever sells, but when Rascal Flatts came out I knew it was over for good country music.
Listing Queen or Rush makes you look ignorant. Give their 70s albums (before they got into synthesizers, because they clearly didn't need them) another listen and get back to me.
In defense of KISS: with the exception of "Beth," they never really gave a rip about writing something intellectual. It was all about the live show. I challenge you to find a better one. They're STILL packing arenas.

This
I have seen a lot of concerts:
Kiss
Rolling Stones
Pink Floyd
ZZ Top
Plant/Page
Ted Nugent
Motley Crue
Styx
Rush
Ozzy
Triumph
Journey
Van Halen
ACDC
The 2 Kiss shows I have seen are both in the top 5 of all of my concerts, incredible live shows.
It's the "... and why" part that's difficult.
When I think of overrated bands, one of the first that comes to mind is Van Halen. Partly, I think even some its freshest output, which came in the Roth-era, hasn't aged well. But is that a good measuring stick?
I think The Who is overrated, too, but (for lack of a better phrase) I can't explain.

It's gone back a little. It certainly isn't how I would want it but guys like Farr, Hodges, etc are a lot closer than what there was for a few years.
uh, yeah. Eddie spawned a generation of imitators. He revolutionized what you could do with a guitar during an era where disco almost killed Rock n Roll. Keep um coming!

I didn't like country growing up but now I like the pop sounds of a lot of new country. If it didn't have the twang and talking about trucks all the time I'd love it
I like the emotion of will hodges, Stephen kellogg, Ron Pope, and that type of country the best.
