we were starting with the "rock" division first.... then working our way to "pop"....
in the rock division a lot of people said Kiss, Creed and Nickleback.... some wanted Rush and journey added... some radical people were really controversial and mentioned nirvana, foo fighters, bon jovi and aerosmith....
I wanted "keane" in a box of it own marked the definition of bland has a picture of these guys next to it!!! |

My kids started arguing on a shopping trip and the insults started..."you like one direction" and they almost started properly fighting then.
Oasis were shit though, a few good songs but over-hyped. |

I agree with Oasis, saw them live once, lots of continuous guitar feedback and whining, Liam Gallagher might as well have gone home, the amount of time he just stood looking out at the audience. |

There are some amazing candidates for this category:

Buck's Fizz
Coldplay
But the most dismal and depressing drivel has to be
Dire Straits (And Level 42)

"Rolling Stones. Have always thought they were shit.
Nooooo how can you say that about the band who wrote Sympathy for the Devil , paint it black, and street fighting man.
Each to their own I guess I'll add The Beatles and Coldplay to the list as well, along with Portishead and Radiohead !
Nooo again lol
Ha ha that's the thing about music its such a personal thing . Unless you like xfactor . I used to avoid Kraftwork but now i love them .
If we all liked the same music Simon Cowell has won ha ha "
Oh god, anything but X Factor !!
We definitely have different tastes, but I do have such an eclectic taste but there are certain bands I cannot take to, such as the ones I mentioned. Just because they are big and famous and almost cult-like, doesn't make them good ! |

"The Beatles ate the most overrated band of all time,followed closely by oasis.

I can't agree with The Beatles as Lennon/McCartney have written some of the most covered songs in popular music. Was every track on every album a classic? No, but they were pretty stoned for a good deal of it. Nonetheless their achievements will probably last far longer than...
THE BAY CITY ROLLERS.
The tartan phenomenon influenced the teenybopper music, fashion & culture. A couple of decent pop songs & even a TV show, but oh how many of us prayed for the day when it was all over & we could buy clothes again without tartan trimming. However that said, as time has moved on I do catch myself singing "Summer Love Sensation" & "Shangalang" in a nostalgic moment. (Shoot me now!) |

God there are so many contenders! but you did say bands, so I would name 2...
The American answer to the Beatles...
The Monkeys!
And Manchesters serious band attempt to out Beatle the Beatles...
Oasis!
Both poor imitations of a band that was not technically that good but were original and ground breaking... |

The Sex Pistols"
Sorry, but I have to say you are wrong. The Sex Pistols may have been a band, look and ethos manufactured by Malcolm McLaren and Vivienne Westwood. But everything about them was original and (like the Beatles) had so much influence they changed popular music. The fact that they were mediocre to down-rite bad musicians does not matter. That after 35 years they are still contravention show they cannot be called overrated. |

"we were starting with the "rock" division first.... then working our way to "pop"....
in the rock division a lot of people said Kiss, Creed and Nickleback.... some wanted Rush and journey added... some radical people were really controversial and mentioned nirvana, foo fighters, bon jovi and aerosmith....
I wanted "keane" in a box of it own marked the definition of bland has a picture of these guys next to it!!!"
Somebody once said "I wanna be a rock star, I want to enjoy the crazy crazy crazy crazy nights, just walk this way and don't stop believing in the spirit of radio, come as you are and you won't be just living on a prayer. There will be no sympathy for the devil because the final countdown means live is life and 99 red balloons will not be enough to let my people go, you will be held down with battle ship chains, 40 ft long and a two ton anchor, you are not a freebird, you are heading for devil gate drive and this is no hotel California, the devil went down to Georgia but you will be going down down. But be strong and don't fear the Reaper, he will be the wind beneath your wings. The rocket man that will take you to your own space oddity on the 5:15.
Why? Because we were born this way

Jimmy page is basically just a overhyped blues guitarist nothing special bonham was great yeah
Plant was ok when he wasn't warbling and whinging jpj I can't argue with
But they weren't anything particularly special they didn't pioneer that sound and page using a violin bow wasn't something he did first coz Ricky medlocke from Blackfoot did it before him, I play guitar in bands and I wouldn't call them gods at all |

I play guitar badly, I know people that play,really play, they all think jimmy page is top five greatest guitarist of all time.
He is technically great and theres lots of technically great guitar players, (steely Dan made a good living using session players), his range of styles is better than anybody's, and his song writing was awesome moving from melody to rift!
Yes he wasn't original but that was his brilliance, he just absorbed music influence and put things together to make his own path.
You might not like LZ but you can't deny there musicality
