: No Doubt
I'm sorry. Are they rated?
: Smashing Pumpkins
I like them a lot. I think that they were rated nicely, until after Melon Collie, at which point they became Underrated because they made some damn good music, but everyone thought it sucked. Make sense?
: Radiohead
Damn fine, but got to be overrated. No one can live up to THAT much hype.
: Nirvana
As musicians? Overrated. As the beginning of the "hot new sound"? Rated perfectly.
: Eminem
I hate white rappers.
: Green Day
Are they rated anymore? They WERE awesome.
: Tool
Underrated. Really don't get the respect they deserve for being such a musically wonderous machine, er, tool.
: The White Stripes
When Jack White gets top 20 in the Rolling Stone list of the Top Guitarists of all time, then they became Overrated. It's a shame too.
: Outkast
G C D Am
: Evanescence
That chick is hot sometimes and not hot other. That's all I have to say.
: The Beatles
Perfect rating.
: The Rolling Stones
Can't really overrate a band that has been playing for 40+ years.
: Santana
Overrated.
: Maroon 5
Who?
: Led Zeppelin
Overrated I think ... but I like em a lot.
: KISS
Overrated. Of course if I was a 35 year old, long haired, biker dude who recently cut his hair and got a day job in an office, leaving behind my gig at the gas station, taking only this band from my glory days ... then they would be underrated, I suppose.
: The Doors
THE MOST OVERRATED BAND OF ALL TIME! I loath this band. Way to write poetry, buddy. Way to sing shittily, buddy. Way to pass out on a keyboard, record it, and sell gold records, buddy.
