05.23.15 | agree hard with 1
AIC > Nirvana |
Artuma
05.23.15 | i legit can't think of a more generic overrated bands list |
SharkTooth
05.23.15 | 9 is overrated? I highly doubt it since fucking Red has an album here with an average higher than LP's highest |
Ryus
05.23.15 | so wrong about 1, 3, 4, and 5
others are fairly correct |
JokineAugustus
05.23.15 | That description for 3 smh |
Ryus
05.23.15 | There isn't any pop-crap "artist" of the last years (like Lady Gaga, Meghan Trainor and, you know, that current), because they are obviously overrated. |
p4p
05.23.15 | excellent, grasshopper. |
Dylan620
05.23.15 | That description for 3 smh [2]
It's fine if you think OK Computer is overrated, but don't discredit Radiohead based on one album |
tempest--
05.23.15 | every "overrated bands" list is the worst of all time |
Keyblade

altertide0
05.23.15 | Every now and then somebody on sputnik makes a list like this one thinking they're saying something new and controversial etc. They're not. Though it's always funny when somebody claims Trout Mask Replica sucks. But what can you expect from a Beatles lover? |
Snowdog808
05.23.15 | 9 is super overrated for having not only more attention overall than Rainbow's first three albums, but also over five times more ratings here than any of them on some of their higher rated albums. |
Keyblade
05.23.15 | why are we comparing linkin park to rainbow again |
MO
05.23.15 | agreed with 1, 2, 4 and 8 |
JohnnyoftheWell
05.23.15 | That description for 3 smh [3]
You also miss that the last three tracks on Mezzanine are the best. |
Keyblade
05.23.15 | agreed with 3 tbh |
JamieTwort
05.23.15 | "Almost filling and boring"
lol
And yeah where did Rainbow come from lol |
guitarded_chuck
05.23.15 | this is actually real as fuck |
NickLizard49
05.23.15 | altertide0 I didn't make this list to say something new or controversial, but only to express my opinion. What does "Beatles lover" means?! Yes I love beatles, but I also love The Residents for example, so what? |
NickLizard49
05.23.15 | I'm glad to see someone who agrees with me |
DoofusWainwright
05.23.15 | If you weren't around in '91 you probably wouldn't understand how things were then. Bands could still take over the planet (like guns n roses, rem, U2, Metallica, etc). This doesn't happen anymore. AIC were small fry compared to Nirvana in terms of impact. |
SharkTooth
05.23.15 | "9 is super overrated for having not only more attention overall than Rainbow's first three albums, but also over five times more ratings here than any of them on some of their higher rated albums."
This is fucking stupid. By that measure Nickelback's Dark Horse is overrated |

Snake.
05.23.15 | not another one of these |
beefshoes
05.23.15 | The fact that Nirvana is often grouped as one of the greatest bands of all time is beyond ridiculous. Their best album is a 2.5 at best, and every other notable band from the grunge scene at the time was better in almost every conceivable way. |
NeroCorleone80
05.23.15 | Their best album is a 4 |
ArsMoriendi
05.23.15 | "Did Nirvana invented grunge?"
lol that grammar.
"Captain Beefheart and His Magic Band didn't know how to play music at all... Does it make a band "innovative"?!"
You have no idea what you're talking about here. Their first album, Safe as Milk, (with almost the exact same lineup) made perfectly on beat music that showed off their talent in a traditional way. This album however was them experimenting and going offbeat and It's catchy in one of the sickening of ways, so it kind of rules. It's still structured and well played, but in a different way than we're used to, so it sounds off to those not used to it. I've heard it a couple of times and adjusted to it so it's not even off sounding to me anymore. Also, It had a gigantic influence on the punk, post-punk, alternative genres and is amazing for that alone.
1, 3, and 7 are a bit overrated, but I still like all 3 bands, especially Radiohead. Stadium Arcadium is a shit album though I like everything before it.
2, 4, 8, 9, and 10 I couldn't care less about.
As for 5, I couldn't really offer an opinion since I only know 2 songs on it, but it's beloved by most and I think it's because not many albums of its time were like it. |
Supercoolguy64
05.23.15 | i love radiohead, but i can understand why some peeps wont.
reminds me of this time creep was playing on the radio and my mom was like, "they played it all the time back when it first came out...it sucked!" |
Steven28
05.23.15 | You missed out Rush |
NeroCorleone80
05.23.15 | That would kinda contradict the title |
NickLizard49
05.23.15 | TheSapphireVerm I consider Deathstars the best INDUSTRIAL band of 2000s. Moreover I rated ICP albums from 1 to 4.5, something that nor a fan, neither a hater could do, so I think I am objective. Anyway who are you to tell what it's good and what it's not?! That is MY opinion, not yours, so I HAVE the authority like you and like everyone else: my opinion is as good as yours, because it is an opinion. |
chinesewhispers
05.23.15 | 5 fuck no
all the other ones yeah |
beefshoes
05.23.15 | Yeah, 5 is awesome.
I really enjoy 3's entire discography, but I agree with Ok Computer being incredibly overrated. It's listed as being the greatest album of all time on RYM's charts, which is absolutely insane. |
NickLizard49
05.23.15 | exactly, beefshoes |
CalculatingInfinity
05.23.15 | I'd call the album of 6 overrated, but not the band. Also lol at 4, missed the point of the album completely. |
altertide0
05.23.15 | TMR here is just pure ignorance. You may not like it if you really don't want to, but overrated, really? |
NickLizard49
05.23.15 | I like 7 bands of 10 in the list, so it demonstrates that the fact that I like those bands or not, doesn't mean that they aren't overrated for me. So your comment's value is zero. |
BMDrummer
05.23.15 | shit user |
wwf
05.23.15 | I agree with 4 but for none of the reasons you listed |
Artuma
05.23.15 | edit lol he deleted that comment nvm |
BMDrummer
05.23.15 | lol |
Funeralopolis
05.23.15 | nirvana, oasis, captain beefheart,
green day and linkin park are all
mediocre yea.
radiohead, neutral milk hotel and massive
attack deserve their acclaim imo |
DjentyNerdo
05.23.15 | I have friends who seriously think LP and Nirvana are the best bands in existence. It makes me cringe. |
wtferrothorn
05.23.15 | If you think Oasis is so bad, then how come Morning Glory is on your top 10 britpop albums? |
botb
05.23.15 | 1 is backed hard |
NickLizard49
05.23.15 | It is not a list of bad bands, wtferrothorn, but a list of OVERRATED bands: it is very different. |
altertide0
05.23.15 | @NickLizard49 You obviously didn't unterstand my comment. I don't care if you like them or not. I said you *may* not. So read more carefully next time please. |

05.23.15 | radiohead, neutral milk hotel and massive

NickLizard49
05.23.15 | altertide0 you talked about "ignorance" that I thought correlated to the concept of dislike-overrated-list, in fact you talked about it in the same comment. Express yourself better and for me it will be easier to understand better |
Skoj
05.23.15 | be careful on THOSE FUCKING EDGES YOU EDGY FUCK
shit tier list, only agree with most of them. |
AmericanFlagAsh
05.23.15 | These lists are always dumb
"OMG I DON'T GET IT SO IT'S OVERRATED" |
altertide0
05.23.15 | I called including TMR here ignorant not because you don't like it (I don't know, maybe you do), but because it's one of the most original and influential records ever. To call a record of such overwhelming importance overrated, when it's #558 on RYM and it rarely appears on any lists of "best albums of all time", even on avant-garde sites, is just ignorance. It's just funny when you have good but nowhere near as visionary and forward-thinking records such as Dark Side of the Moon or White Album appear everywhere and have 5 to 10x the number of ratings of TMR, yet you say that TMR is the one which is overrated! |

"The Most Overrated Bands of All Times"
yeah you're objective af dude, don't worry |
Skoj
05.23.15 | WHO THE HELL THREW OUT MY FAVORITE PAIR OF CONVERSES
FUCK |
JamieTwort
05.24.15 | With regards to altertide's comments, someone can still think something is overrated regardless of how influential or innovative it is. Neither influence nor innovation are directly related to quality, which of course is subjective and is usually the most common factor that is taken into consideration when people say whether or not they think something is overrated.
Including Trout Mask Replica isn't ignorant. His description for it does show that he is somewhat ignorant towards the rest of Beefheart's material though. |
zakalwe
05.24.15 | Single handedly changing the musical zeitgeist and leaving an influence that inspires while having a lasting impression on subsequent generations cant be 'rated' it can certainly be respected though.
Linkin Park are shite.

08.12.15 | "....What else?"
Well.
It's an album. What do you want it to do? Do you want it to file your taxes? Be real, kid...And I'm not going to take the bait on Beefheart. |
Cimnele
08.12.15 | i never get all the "Oasis sound like Blur and the Beatles" comparison things because they don't
they sound like shit |
