Most overrated musical act of all time?

Seems people have more problems with fan reaction than with the bands themselves, myself included.

This gives me an idea for a new thread.

I find Bullet for my Valentine and all the other copy-paste bands out there to be overrated as a rule. Maybe just because I see emotionally turbulent tweens shrieking about them and thinking they're the best everrrrrrrrrr (and explode in a rage when you say the band isn't good). Oh, and Avenged sevenfold's wannabe-Pantera-ness makes me sick.

MOST overrrated? I'm not old enough to know

My vote goes to Nirvana.

I'm old-"ish", but I don't mind Bullet or Sevenfold... simply because they have some great guitar players. I don't get a Pantera vibe from Sevenfold either.. Overrated maybe.. i don't hang around enough kids to be sure what they think of them tbh. i just think they're cool on their own terms.

Despite her young age, her understanding of Ti still somehow dwarfs yours.

@OP: How much time do you have?

I've always thought U2 was, and still is, grossly overrated.

There. I said it.

Point taken, but this coming from an Fi dom? Probably the only function even less useful than Ti?

At least the Te dom can actually make that argument...

The "original thinking" of Ti:

which is some pretty awesome original thought.

John Mayer

Is he really rated that highly? The vast majority of people I talk to say "Good guitarist, crap singer/songwriter, and douche/weirdo to boot."

Well, I was going to add that maybe it's just where I live that everybody worships him like a god, but decided against it. Obviously I need to move elsewhere to get away from that hype.
