The Beatles. Specifically Sgt. Pepper's. Great band, but why are they considered the best? And Sgt. Pepper's is just one of the worst Beatles albums, imo.

most cIassic rock bands. IMO there is very little substance to the music. they find a cool riff, slap some catchy lyrics to it and make a platinum album :?

KISS, I don't think they would of made it if it wasn't for make-up, and pyrotechnics. They do have a few good songs though, but nothing to make them as epic as people claim.

Well, you can believe what you want, but i'm of the firm thought that all bands are rated as they are for a reason, and that saying it's overrated because you don't like it is meaningless. Just my two cents, carry on.

The reason I pick bands as overrated is due to fan reaction....not the band itself.;)

I'm not sure if people can really answer this question. They are just going to find whatever popular band they can that they personally don't like, and choose that one.

No, I respect Bob Dylan as an artist. But I don't think his music is as revolutionary and amazing as most people make it out to be. Not that I don't like him, but that I think he is overrated.

No. Yes. No. Frank Zappa isn't even that popular and Bob Dylan is one of the greatest songwriters, period.

That's good. Usually when I encounter a Tool fan, and the band comes up, and I say I don't like them, the person threatens my life.

I just listened to two Tool songs to see why everyone liked them and I couldn't find out why.

I think most people think of Led Zeppelin in terms of "Stairway to Heaven" when they had so much more, better-sounding, music. That's probably why they got so much attention.

im with you on tool. i once told a tool fan that tool is not the best band in the world(note:i didnt say they were bad or anything) and i became the antichrist. being decent, radio friendly metal is not enough, they had to be the second coming.

Nirvana - Good, but doesn't stand out above most rock bands.

ACDC - Talented, but IMO their music is boring.

i know. what's up with that? why are you outcasted if you don't like them. it's like if you say you don't like tool everyone's just like "how can you not like them? you don't deserve to listen to music".

blooddemon666

but fans don't have to force it down other's throats.

agreed. i'm a tool fan, even to the point where'd i call them one of my all-time favorite bands. however, i hate most of their fan base. i once recommended opeth and porcupine tree to a group of tool fans, and they immediately started swearing at me for "attacking the best band in the world." they act like tool is the only band they can listen to...

anyway, i'd say kiss is the most overrated band. almost all of their songs are extremely repetetive, and are all very simplistic.
