    Most overrated bands of all time?

    I'd vote for:

    - Red Hot Chili Peppers
    - Greenday
    - Guns and Roses

    I would have gone for the Beatles too but they don't really count as musicians anyway.
    I don't live here any more.

    All rock bands are overrated. Especially Led Zeppelin.

    Wossname you can suck my randomly aquired 10/100bit ethernet card!

    THE Red Hot Chili Peppers are the greatest band of all time, John Frusciante is our god!

    Now dig out your little LCD display, and output this "I must suck ILMVs ethernet card"

    Over and out.

    Dude... Chili Peppers SUCK. Firstly, their videos are a little (lot) on the queer side... and their music isn't even innovative. It's the same crap reused over and over again. Get into a band that actually produces original music.

    I can agree a bit with metallica, sure they HAVE written good songs, but nowadays they write garbage and their drummer...i dont see how they manage to play without getting embarrased.

    Nirvana definately over rated, just because the guy killed himself young.

    No it's a material they use for tires.

    I'd like to add one to this list: Queen. Their songs are all crap, and Bohemian Rhapsody is nothing more than high shrill of a voice.

    Oh, and Coldplay. I really like their songs, but their popularity is unjust.

    Hendrix? How can you say he is over rated, thats rubbish!

    I would have to agree that the Chillies are overated. They have some good tunes but not that good!

    50 Cent, hes voice is so boring!

    He's a single artist, not a band. If you were to turn around and say, oh I don't know, G-Unit, then I'd completely agree with you.

    80's hair rock bands ... kind of similar to what Rap is going through in the late 2000's with all this garbage (Soulja Boy, Mike Jones).
