I feel like the sudden surge in Queen fans is because of the Bohemian Rhapsody biopic

worthy gazelle
#

Metallica 💀💀💀

tawdry ridge
#

hmm

#

queen was pretty much the biggest band in the world in the 80s

#

not exactly "overrated"

While I love pink Floyd it's overrated as hell.

#

When the I Want to Break Free music video released in the US, they lost their popularity for a while I think

#

Then Live Aid came and they became popular again

#

post-OKC Radiohead, The Bends is one of my fav albums of all time and OK Computer is great as well, but everything after that to me is just Thom Yorke moaning to random piano and synth noises, and I don't get the appeal at all.(edit: a year later I actually like quite a bit of there later stuff, but Bends and OKC is still king)

#

To answer the question tho, I'm not sure

#

I'll say Nirvana's pretty overrated but like really only the Nevermind stuff

#

Smells Like Teen Spirit and Something in the Way are becoming overrated

The Beatles 🤭

The Beatles I feel like are absolute game changers of music, but I don't think that should mean everyone has to like them

That being said I do feel like Sgt Pepper's is a bit overrated

But my actual answer would be Metallica, everything post the black album was just awful imo. Like they had a great 5 album run, then the rest of their stuff just seems like they're coasting off of ideas that they had back in the late 80s

#

I feel like when most non-Beatles fans think of the Beatles, they'll think of like their earlier works or like their later works when they were being more pop-friendly

#

But I recommend checking out their middle era if you haven't, Rubber Soul and Revolver area

That's fine, I feel like that is the one thing about the Beatles: it just doesn't fit most people's tastes

The Beatles can be respected but I don't think that means everyone HAS to be a Beatles fan

If you're talking about radio soad then yeah, but alot of the songs that stations never picked up are AMAZING(check out dreaming, know, and kill rock n roll)

i don't like rhcp at all

i mean thats ur choice

but still alot of newer bands suck

#

i think its cause everythings been done before and people lack creativity

#

thats what made music from the 50s+ more impactful

#

since there was new technology

#

but now its just too easy to make music

#

everyone can make music but not everyone can make their music world wide which is what seperates our generation from the one before

Lucky Aeterna sounds like a parody song that somebody like Stevie t would make for Metallica

Lux Aeterna* I mean

And sure it’s decent for a bunch of boomers but even the beetles (or what’s left of them) is dropping solid songs

#

not sure abt soloing tho

#

YeEeHAUhYEEAEAEAEAEAHHHH

#

@lofty tiger Although I do appreciate Metallica's performance with that Orchestra or whatever

#

although ticket prices are like $7000 I'm not paying that to see a sloppy kirk hammett solo

lofty tiger
#

WTF 7000???

#

Most solid live metal shows (especially with more obscure but solid bands) that I've seen are still like 50 bucks

Rammstein

#

I mean, whitechapel was recently selling tickets for 30 bucks(although prices have skyrocketted due to being sold out)

#

They're like 150 bucks from 3rd party dealers but still

#

Killswitch engage is selling from 66.99-119.99 each

fresh bramble
#

that's cheap

#

Although I wa referring to the top "package" as they call it. Where you can have a custom area up front for viewing the Concert, with beverages and a cooler

#

that's not bad, but $7000!?

lofty tiger
#

Nah thats still BS cus you know its gonna be super full

#

It kinda gets rid of the whole point of VIP when those tickets get sold out anyways

Muse is alright. I wouldn't consider them "overrated" as nobody ever brings them up and they aren't that popular.

#

They are kinda mid though

No people bring them up all the time

#

Maybe not in muscians circles

Saying Muse is overrated is like saying The Jonas Brothers is overrated.

Poorly I might add

#

What's worse than polyphia are all the clones

lofty tiger
#

There's definitely soul to it. Just because its modern and has a lot of production behind it doesn't mean there's no "soul". You look at bands like AAL where theres the same arguments but they have plenty of music that convey emotion and feel. Tosin himself said that one of his songs was supposed to convey anxiety in that most of the notes are in the major scale but some are purposely "off" to make it sound uneasy(I forgot which song, I'd have to look).

Dude these guys are actually insane. I mean sure, many of their songs feel overplayed now but they're kinda in the same boat as Led Zeppelin where their good songs kinda lose credit from people cus they heard it so much.

# restive widget I gotta wonder why people in here think the Beatles are overrated

I think the Beatles can both be the greatest band ever and overrated. Those don't have to be exclusive. We do give the Beatles a ton of leeway in the name of being experimental. Which is great, we should give all bands that leeway. But when the Beatles wrote a kind of mediocre song but tried, for the most part people still acted like it was tremendous, or a noble effort for daring to push music in a new direction, and that's where I think we go too far. John Lennon was an asshole, Ringo was a bad drummer, the Beatles arguably had more truly meh songs than truly great ones, just that the great highly overpowers the meh. When you act like a band walks on water, it's very hard to say they also met that expectation and thus are 'rated fairly'

Like, for a 5 star record, the back half of Sgt Peppers is pretty bad until A Day In The Life?

#

Flip side, the front half of Magical Mystery Tour, more or less awful until I Am The Walrus.

The smiths. Repeated/redundant lyrics, bland vocals and song meaning, guitar tone sounds too similar in too many songs, the singer sounds like David Bowie having a tooth ache

Ik I see this a lot, but the cure is infinitely better. Instrument tone is way better, the singer is full of energy and same with all the other band members, lyrics are good (Still kinda weird at times but nonetheless pretty good), and meaning of songs actually make some sense.
