Gonna just jump right on in here. For me Never Mind The Bollocks is one of the best albums ever. I've listened to it hundreds of times, and it never gets stale. The hard hitting punch, and unpolished grit of the album sounds as fresh now as it did then. I could make a 100 band list in 10 min of bands that I personally think are overrated. Starting with Rush, the worlds most famous Budgie imitators.

Meh I'm over Deep Purple at the moment, Led Zeppelin I don't really see as over rated either except maybe for songs beaten to death like Black Dog.

Rush > Budgie by a wide margin. I don't think RUSH sounds anything like them after 2112 either as Geddy's voice settled.

Sex Pistols...the ultimate "All Bag and no Groceries" album of all time. It remains a watershed moment in rock music because it represented a change in society and expressed it in the most visceral terms. Musically it's a load of Rubbish and everytime I see it rated among the "Best Ever..." it makes me want to hurl.:puke:

But everyone is entitled to their own opinion Gorgon.;)

Just to name one over rated band/album for now. Guns 'N' Roses and their album Appetite For Destruction. Just a band and album that I never really got into.

No. Rush thought so highly of them to copy their act straight down to the guitar picks. If they had copied their sound a bit better, I wouldn't be so inclined to turn the station every time their harmony-less droning attacks the air waves. I always thought Peart was the wasted talent in Rush.
I know Rush is really popular around here, and that's cool, I'm just not falling for it. Respect.
