Most overrated band that ever was.
Wouldn't that be The Stones??
Come on. The Rolling Stones are not my cup of tea, but I can respect them for some accomplishments (now, to say they're still interesting after 50 years... ) If you want to throw... stones to a band, let's lynch Oasis.
Oh, by the way, two weeks ago, I heard my brother and one of his friends expressing their disdain for the Beach Boys...

never thought of them as anything other than middle of the road, bloated, bland staduim rock. How on earth The Edge manages to frequently score quite high up in 'greatest guitar player ever' polls is beyond me. Ok he can do that picky strumming thing and hes got a delay pedal...WOW. Their songs may tend sound like big grand, sweeping epics, but they are utterly hollow on the inside
and Bono's politics/personality is irrelevant, musicians can be as arseholey as they want, thats never a factor in if I like a bands music.

Along with The Bealtes and King's X, U2 are in my Top 3 favorite bands of all time. I love everything they've done to different degrees. I get why people get sick of them, but honestly I don't care. I think they're very unique and engaging and daring. They are not afraid to mix it up and change from one album to the next. I love Bono's voice and his presence. Amazing live band as well.
