ITT World's most overrated bands:
>pic related
Agreed.
Influential sure but Loveless fucking sucks.
ok you start OP
Why does their bassist look like their mum?
>>60759096
>"Alright guys, stand in order of attractiveness."
>>60759096
wow, little did i know that kev. was str8 edge
>>60759096
Billinda is so qt ;_;
>when
>are you
>come back again
>i want you to
>Bigblack
>Shellac
>Rapeman
>Pigface
mfw someone tells me these are good
Doors Doors Doors, Weezer 2nd
This is gonna be a great thread.
Most overrated shugazi band at least.
Loveless is great, the rest is just okay. There are other shugazi bands who accomplished more and better things. For example, Cocteau Twins shaped the genre more than them and actually has more than one top-tier record.
>>60759202
;_;
>>60759239
Ride is the most overrated shewgatze
>>60759182
Wouldn't at all be surprised if he is. He doesn't strike me as the guy who would care about recreational drugs, I think he's just too autistic about pedals and shit. You can tell just looking at him that he's a dork doing his best to appear cool.
>>60759239
I just don't get the appeal of shoegaze, it's a genre I simply can't get into
Radiohead
>>60759152
Most likely is.
>>60759271
Ride gets way too much shit from homosexual burgers to be even close to overrated. Also most people haven't even discovered their discography past one album, even though they have one other superior album and a bunch of god-tier EPs.
hey guys whats going on
>>60759289
What kind of stuff do you normally listen to? Maybe you're approaching it from the wrong angle
>>60759386
I normally listen to hip hop and IDM but I can always find some band within a genre that I enjoy, the exception being shoegaze and death metal
>>60759474
Have you already tried Velocity Design Comfort by Sweet Trip?
>>60759382
(not true, by the way)
>>60759096
>>60759133
YOU SHUT YOUR WHORE MOUTHS
Led Zeppelin
>>60759096
Bilinda kinda looks like Victoria Legrand
Mediocre industrial music with a DUDE HOMOSEXUALITY AND MAGIC LMAO gimmic
>>60759710
Shots fired
>>60759276
I'm pretty sure their music was partly inspired by recreational drugs.
To me a lot of their songs sound like what you feel when you're high as fuck and you're thinking about someone you love or are in an erotic situation.
>>60759710
they're underrated "irl" but i sorta agree that they're overrated on /mu/ a bit
>>60759508
No, but I'll give it a try
>>60759096
Who are the pixies?
>>60759096
You posted the wrong image cÏ…ck
>>60759382
Oh no
What have you done?
Can you smell the wall of BO rushing towards us?
You can hear the murmurs of "I like real music" in the distance
Delete the post before it's too late!
>>60759920
u wanna fight m8?
>>60759276
>implying drug users aren't dorks with nothing better to do
Actually good/great artists that are overrated or at least put on too high of a pedestal for their achievements:
The Smiths
The Jam (at least in the UK)
Black Flag
King Crimson
Black Sabbath
Death Grips
Pixies
The Clash
Sonic Youth
Just OK artists that are overrated:
Nirvana
Wu Tang Clan
Public Enemy
The Prodigy
Muse
David Bowie
Bob Dylan
The Doors
Ramones
The Smashing Pumpkins
The Strokes
Just plain bad bands that are overrated:
Metallica
Iron Maiden
Van Halen
Radiohead
>>60759508
That was really awesome anon! Thanks for the recommendation!
>>60760300
I swear if Radiohead had never gone famous everyone here in /mu/ would love them and it would be an unusual opinion to say they suck.
nine inch nails
The Beatles, Led Zepplin, The Eagles, Kayne West, Nirvana, Foo Fighters are good answers
>>60760300
thats true as hell. Nirvana is a knock off of the wipers, lmaoo slick.
:-DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
>>60760300
What a retarded list.
>>60760660
Beatles and LZ are only overrated because its impossible not to be at their level of popularity.
>>60759096
The actual most overrated bands are mainly hair metal bands like Motley Crue/Poison and pop punk bands like The Ramones/Green Day.
>>60761306
>pop punk bands like The Ramones
I like you.
>>60759717
Bonham was a great drummer
>>60761413
They were/are all talented musicians imo - especially Jones and Bonham, but most of their music does nothing for me.
>>60761473
They are ruined by reddit-tier fans. TRU ROCK NEVER DIESSSS !!11!!!!
>>60761306
>The actual most overrated bands are mainly hair metal bands like Motley Crue/Poison and pop punk bands like The Ramones/Green Day.
Agreed.
>>60759690
Agreed, New Order is far better
>your favorite band
>>60761800
but my favorite band is your favorite band
Swans
>>60760300
wow you really have shit taste
>>60760300
Dubs officially mean dick. Congrats your opinion ruined them.
>>60759818
lol no you only see people occasionally mention the ape of naples on here
>>60759710
lol pleb
>>60761800
Shut up! My favorite band is the best!
>oh yeah let me just make seem beeps and boops on a computer
>>60760300
How can someone be so wrong about so many things
>this has not been posted yet
wow
>>60761643
They sound totally different, both very good
Coldplay....
swans definitely
>>60762220
I find him extremely unattractive
On /mu/:
>King Crimson, which is a poor man's Yes or Genesis
>American Football
>HaNL/Giles Corey/Dan Barrett
>Captain Beefheart
>Fishmans
>Coil
>Talking Heads
>New Order
>>60764008
>coil
>overrated on /mu/
>anything but under appreciated
>>60764008
>King Crimson
>Poor man's Yes or Genesis
>>60764103
Please name one King Crimson song that even compares to Close to the Edge.
>>60761643
Well, New Order are overrated even more. They won't achieve their status without the pre-history of JD. Also it always kills me when they are mentioned first in the new wave/synth pop/ post punk discussions while great bands like OMD are forgotten.
>>60764008
>lel implying Yes or Genesis ever released anything sounding like Discipline or Lark's Tongues
>Sure, for the genre. Still like them though.
>True
>True. TMR is like his worst good album
>Not mentioned here enough to be included on your shitpost
>Should have done Swans or Death Grips you fucking pleb
>See American Football
>Do you even browse?
>>60764179
Swans and Death Grips are givens that most people have accepted, though. I'm mentioning ones that people are uncomfortable admitting.
>>60764116
>Larks' Tongues in Aspic, Part One
>Starless
>Discipline
He's a medicore artist. His only good albums are only good because of the talent of another person.
>>60764248
No, his late 60s-early 70s stuff is great

"We were just high and so we wanted people to experience that."
>>60764055
not that anon but their kinda overrated here. they're pretty much on everyone's charts
>>60765841
Ape of Naples is super overrated, but I think /mu/ basically ignores the rest of their albums
>>60764248
faggot
>>60759096
Goddamn Bilinda was/is hot
Kevin fucked up
>>60764055
first day here?
maybe coil aren't talked about on a neutral milk hotel or kanye level but every single time they are it is in a positive light, that's would make them pretty overrated.
>>60766908
bilinda also had some serious baggage and already had a kid when they met
kevin played it smart: hit it and quit it
>>60761800
If someone's favorite band is anywhere on this page they should probably just kill themselves.
>>60767466
My favorite band isn't on this page but I bet almost everyone would say it's overrated
>>60767742
Who
>>60768285
They're in the rym top 100
>>60760602
Glad you liked it :^) There's a pretty expansive shoegaze flowchart that'll give you ideas of where to go from there. Unfortunately I don't have it saved on this computer, but I see it posted often in the shugazi threads
>>60759669
Nope.
Queen, Muse's last albums, Green Day (depends on the person though, because some people here tend to underrate them and say they don't have nothing good, and that's not true), The Rolling Stones (they have good albums, but they also have REALLY shitty ones), well, almost every famous band.
>>60761643
Been sayin this for ages.
>>60762138
Swans is one of my favorite bands and I totally agree that they're overrated
>>60759096
How come the picture is of The Ramones but the filename says MBV???
>>60764154
Most of the people who originally bought New Order didn't even know JD existed
>>60760175
>complains about dorks with nothing to do
>browses 4chan
Literally sm.h
Kanye. He's not bad but he isn't amazing imo
>>60766908
I still would
>>60762163
True. That album is overrated af on /mu/.
Some people have Horse Rotorvator or ATADIHA on their charts though, both of which are better than The Ape.
JOANNA. FUCKING. NEWSOM. Can't even browse RYM anymore because of the raving about her obnoxious music. Also overrated: Pavement (boring), Pink Floyd (good but not amazing), Nirvana (tons of filler), Weezer (blue album is full of filler), and My Bloody Valentine are shit compared to Slowdive.
>>60759096
>>60759223
i bet you like nirvana
>>60764830
i don't think he's talking about drugs here but in the Beautiful Noise documentary he mentions ecstasy being an influence
>>60759182
lol right
>>60760602
>>60768524
This flowchart?
>>60771629
there's a bigger version of this somewhere
not the one that isn't a flowchart though
>>60771629
I've never seen this flowchart but I take a lot of issue with some of the ideas expressed here. I don't agree with a lot of this
