Most Over-rated Bands in the History of the World

[HevyDevy]

That was Megadeth - different genre altogether

 

[Munky]

Motley Crue covered it aswell.

Has anyone else noticed that bands that were good in the 80s went to sh*t after releasing a good album in the early 90s?

Metallica (Black), U2 (Achtung Baby) and I'm sure there were a few others.

 

[HevyDevy]

Bon Jovi are another

 

[Ron Jeremy]

which band that Ron Loves raped the sex pistols " Anarchy in the UK"..?

please let it be Motley Crue....

I actually don't mind the Sex Pistols;-) , one of the only punk bands that i like.

Hrundi99, ask any non-metal fan about anything in relation to metal and offcourse they won't know anything, it's just like asking me what was Ace of Base's best song and what was Jason Donovans most inspirational album :lol:

oh dear...why did they do it.
I can see M.Crue doing it because they were a gimmick band.

 

[Trollhammaren]

I pretty much agree with every band mentioned.

Kiss are over-rated. They're greatest hits album even has a lot of filler on it. Good marketers though.

How are they over-rated....offcourse they are brillant marketers, just like David Bowie, Alice Cooper, Ozzy Osbourne etc.
Going strong for a band that's over 30 years old.

LOL @ anyone who said ACDC. Far from overrated.

ACDC were nothing without Bon Scott

 

[hineyrulz]

ACDC were nothing without Bon Scott

ever heard of an album called back in black? i'll agree with you they weren't the same without bon but they still brought out some good music after his death.

back in black was ordinary

it was ok, but not as 'great' as what people make it out to be

 

[NPK]

A lot of ACDC's songs sounded very similar.. I swear you could easily swap verses and choruses of some of their songs and you would hardly notice.

 

[Dr Crane]

I'm trying to get into Pearl Jam.

I can't help but notice their songs sounds very similar.

 

[Munky]

Ahhh, no.

I like Achtung baby.

My fave non Joshua Tree song is on the album (Ultra-violet, Light my way)
