Overated Bands

I can't....>____>slorg_king

Sorry, i just dont see how you could be a guy and listen to their music. And the majority of their fans are teenage girls.

[QUOTE="ithilgore2006"]I agree on Dragonforce, I simply can't see any actual music in them.ithilgore2006

Would you mind elaborating on this point? I think you'll find it is an entirely false statement.

Oh I get it. You don't see the music...you hear it right? :lol:

Seriously though, are you simple saying you don't like them? If you are, try to be a lot less ambiguous next time.

Not to worry, pipkin. I know where you stand now. To be fair though, your reason didn't really say a lot more than saying that they suck though, did it?

How the hell do you use fans to argue against a band in the first place?Cerussite

Tell that to the people who hate tool because of their annoyingly rabid fan base. I enjoy tool's work, but they are definatly not as good as their fans make them out to be.

Hehe, evidently, our ideas of catchy differ. :P

Cerussite

This is the only proof i can think of. Go to their myspace and look at their comments. I can guarentee that 90% of the comments are from teenage girls. The only dudes on there are trying promote their bands.

EDIT: i just went to My Chemical Romances myspace. They list as their music types as Rock/Metal

How in the **** are they metal?lol

If I'd said "they suck", that would imply I thought they played bad music, which wasn't what i was getting at at all :P.
ithilgore2006

Mmm, yeah. So there may be a nuance in there somewhere. :P Even so, a better explanation wouldn't go amiss next time. :)

Don't mind me though; I'm an absolute stickler for precision. :P

That's very weak proof, and I don't see why it matters if they appeal to girls more. Would it threaten your manliness to like such a band?SolidSnake35

It wouldn't... i like bands like incubus and the dear hunter :| I'm no less of a man for liking them... I think...

No it wouldn't, but i cant see myself listening to such meaningless music.

Most girls like bands because they think the band members are good looking. They dont like bands because they play good music.

[QUOTE="metallica_fan42"][QUOTE="Hinata237"]No band is 'overrated'.rb2610

Really? so your saying artists like solja boy (if he even counts as a music artist) are talented?!

[QUOTE="Cerussite"][QUOTE="SaintTheKing"]

Alot of bands get famous just because of teenage girls. Fall Out Boy, Panic At The Disco, My Chemical Romance, etc.

When i hear their music i think to myself "what in the **** is this song about?" Most of their songs have a pointless meaning.

because some of their older stuff has Metal guitars in them combined with scremo/emo vocals

i know it doesnt threaten my manliness to like bands like MCR or Flyleaf or Paramore or The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus. If music threatens your manliness youve got some serious issues

Green Day are in no way comparable to Metallica.

Its like comparing a pu$$y cat to a Siberian tiger.

Foo Fighters

Not bands, but Norah Jones and Alicia Keys.

SlipknotStar_Wars117

Coheed and Cambria

DragonForce

Kiss

Queen

Nobody mentioned Jonas Brothers yet:?DanteSuikoden

That's because they aren't overrated. It's common knowledge that they suck. Nobody is rating them high.

MCR, FOB, HIM, AAR, Tickle Me Pink, The Fray, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, those are a few of the bands I listen to quite a bit and I'm a guy. And to be honest, I find these bands' music much more meaningful than something like Stairway to Heaven, for me at least.

And I think the music these bands offer sounds amazingly good. So I get the meaning behind it which sometimes relates to me plus the great sound.

true, i guarantee at least 87 facebook groups about the new jonas brothers cd have been crated in the last 30 seconds.

[QUOTE="sovereign_22"]my chemical romance, you know, if they had an actual rocker singer, theyd probebly be pretty kick assCerussite

Maybe if you were less vague...

rocking to the brootal lyrics, d00d

Dragonforce arent that well known, they just got a small increase in popularity because of Guitar Hero 3, most people who dont either game or listen to metal have never heard of them. I think most music in the charts is awful, its always either that annoying woman who reminds me of Janice on Friends, some terrible rap or hiphop, depressing coldplay sort of rock or irritating stuff like scouting for girls who are just incredibly annoying.rb2610

^ This.

Edit : thanks GS for glitching again.

Ah another (or should I say old and bumped thread...why?) thread about bands one doesn't like. Bands are bands....you like them or you don't. Listen to what you like....ignore what you don't. The only thing that's overrated is fans that push their favorites and don't allow for differing opinions.

--Peace out.

:lol: There are so many things wrong with what you just said.

I can't believe someone said Oasis and The Beatles. :cry:alwayspureblood

Well, Wonderwall is an incredibly over-played song but they aren't very over-rated. Overly-arrogant? No doubt in my mind. God I hate Noel.

Agreed.
