Re: Most Overated Bands of the 90's

I rather like Porcupine Tree, although I never discovered them until the 2000's.

The 90's for me was my big "country music" years, therefore, I didn't pay a whole lot of attention to who was being commercialized and shoved down the FM listeners throats.

Personally, I dont think any band is overrated because there would have to be some official ratings handed out first. Otherwise, it all boils down to personal preferences.

Re: Most Overated Bands of the 90's

Nirvana, not just in the 90s but the most overrated band of all time.

The Beatles have that, IMO.


Nirvana are pretty overrated, but that doesn't mean they're not great. I mean, they're my favorite band, and after Kurts death he some how became a god, and everyone started worshipping him.
I love Nirvana for the vocal melodies of the songs. Kurts a good guitarist, but everyone knows he wasn't the greatest guitarist around, technicality-wise. To say they are the most overrated band of all time is ridiculous. To be the msot overrated band in the world they'd either have to be SO INCREDIBLY FAMOUS THAT THEY ARE ONE OF EVERY SINGLE MUSICIANS INFLUENCES(beatles) or that they're complete crap, but they're neither, they've had a good amount of fame, and maybe just a little bit more than they deserve, but I guess thats just my opinion.

I have seen people say Oasis is overrated. I personally like Oasis, I just don't see how they are overrated or over-hyped.


I honestly don't care for these type of threads, because it all boils down to an opinion, your own!


But I will say one thing, people sure love to slam Nirvana as the winner of the overrated award. Not that I am a huge fan, but I dont even see Kurt or Nirvana as overrated

:wtf:

^^I agree with Bryter, Oasis is Vastly overrated, and a lot of the hype they did themselves, anyone that claims to be better or bigger than the Beatles should be sent for an extended stay in a mental hospital in my view.

Number of Oasis albums in the house....0...and that is not going to change.
