AdioLovesSquall Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 I don't know why everyone thinks Dream Theater is over-rated. I find a lot of them to be particularily talented; especially in the percussion department. Their lack of compositional skill is disturbing.

Maleficus1055 Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 the Doors AC/DC Dream Theater Coldplay David Gilmour Red Hot Chili Peppers Queen the Eagles Are just a few. But it doesn't really matter. How can you think the eagles are overrated? They're great. Let me guess, you only listened to Hotel California. Tumblr. Follow me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightLite Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 The Beatles Nirvana A New Found Glory AFI Slipknot Metallica The Doors Justin Timberlake Tila Tequila Elvis Presley [insert every punk-rock band to have come out since 2004 here] Honestly, Elvis Presley was not that great of a singer... He had the moves and the looks, but the guy could barely carry a tune... Both he and the Beatles have been considered "The Biggest Artists in History", but I honestly am not a huge fan of either. - Only character in Runescape History maxed out in RSC and RS2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StrOwez Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 this topic is just - I don't really like x band that other people like, it's nothing to do with rating of the band :wall: Which makes the title of the topic stupid and pointless.

Jernlov Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 Ulver Opeth Dream Theater Moonsorrow (any finnish 'viking metal' band actually) Finntroll (and those insipid folk metal ones). Metallica Megadeth Dragonforce There's more, but that's all I could stomach to write.Completely agree. Even if I have a huge soft spot for Opeth amongst a handful of prog bands, for example Pink Floyd and Porcupine Tree. Dream Theater bore the hell out of me. Dragonforce give power metal a bad name and deserve to be expelled from the subgenre. They can take Rhapsody of Fire, Dragonland and Dark Moor with them too.

Porcupine Tree > Dream Theater. I couldn't agree more. I also think that Nirvana was one of the WORST bands to come out of the 90s....I'd rather listen to LFO.

Dream Theater bore the hell out of me. Dragonforce give power metal a bad name and deserve to be expelled from the subgenre. They can take Rhapsody of Fire, Dragonland and Dark Moor with them too. Porcupine Tree > Dream Theater.Yeah. Porcupine's sound is really unique. Love them to bits. Plus they're a [fairly] local band to me. I would never have thought that I would find such amazing musicians in the vicinity. I also think that Nirvana was one of the WORST bands to come out of the 90s....Oh God did Nirvana suck hard. I tried to get my classmates to listen to something else once. Childish insults flew. I laughed. If Kurt hadn't topped himself, we would be blissfully ignorant to Nirvana's prescence. All of this said, I'm pretty sure that there must be Nirvana fans somewhere that appreciate more than the one band [and aren't brainless]. AC/DC. It all depends on whether or not you like hearing the same song over and over.AdioLovesSquall is right, y'know. Anyway: Overrated bands: Dragonforce (every album is cheesy and has quality traded for computerised speed) Dream Theater (except for Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence) Opeth (purely for Watershed, it was such a letdown, yet so many loved it...) Helloween (became sub-par and overrated the very second Kai Hansen lost interest) Rhapsody of Fire (same reasons as Dragonforce, but trade 'computerised speed' for 'a full symphony orchestra and terrible lyrics' Epica (too like Nightwish, that instantly makes them overrated) Nightwish (especially Dark Passion Play and Century Child) Steam | Soup | Last.fm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalphite Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 I would like to add Pendulum to this list. They may not be the most overrated band ever, but they are certainly boring for all of the praise they receive. I would also say that Pink Floyd's The Dark Side of the Moon is overrated. Other overrated bands (to me at least) are Into eternity (I've only heard a couple songs though), Iced Earth, Helloween's Keeper of the Keys Pt. 1, and the aforementioned Rhapsody of Fire and Dragonforce (except Valley of the Damned was decent). Oh, I forgot to say Judas Priest. they had, like, 2 good albums. Everything else that they did is boring, and Rob Halford isn't *that* amazing of a singer, IMO.

You really haven't listened to anything but your local classic rock radio station if you think Stairway to Heaven is their best song. There are at least 5 songs I can name that I think are better than Stairway to Heaven.
