We should all be ashamed for forgetting the king band of overratedness, Slipknot.
And while we're at it, *prepares to be shot down* Metallica. They're pretty good, but if I hear one more brat claiming they "invented rock" I'll put my nose in a glass and hope to drown.

Metallica is WAY overrated. The last really good album they had was the Black Album. IMO Kill'em All is their best, but that's because I think that Dave Mustaine writes better riffs than James Hetfield.

Are you saying that they are overrated or underrated? Punctuation would help.

Depeche Mode, The used, The cure, Aiden, and HIM are all extremely overrated, as well.
take the cure and depeche mode out and you are 100% wright
and i might get told off, but i always found Jimi Hendrix to be overrated, as i do with Metallica, Kiss, The Rolling Stones, The Libertines, Jimmy Buffett, Bon Jovi, Aerosmith, Sonic Youth, Coldplay, Oasis, and U2
opinions are like assholes, everyone has them and sometimes you think they stink.

the jonas brothers.
I'm sure that many people don't even know who they are. I have never heard a single one of their songs.
I say that John Mayer is overrated
you clearly arent in the vicinity of many preteens, or have a sister of that preteen age.
No, but I am a Blues Guitar player, and he is very popular in the community.
Agreed. (Jonas Brothers)
Green Day
The Used <- No offense, but they're not talented at all. -_-"
Nana Kitade <- She sucks anus. I hate her voice. >=(
My Chemical Romance <- self-explanatory...?

Depeche Mode and the Cure are overrated? What makes you say that?
i find them extremely overrated, don't get me wrong, i am not saying they are bad in any form, and just cause a band is overrated, doesn't mean they are bad(seeing as i like slipknot, Fall out boy, and a few others listed here) it just means that they get much more attention and things to their name than they deserve.
they are both good, but, there are much better bands for the genre to be known than them.

Fall Out Buy, My Chemical Romance, Panic! at the Disco and Green day.
Agree completely. Though I like a couple of Panic's songs. Go ahead, call me gay.

Seconded. What's worse is that the music itself is really good. Her voice kills it though.

Agree on Amy Winehouse. She's pretty unique compared to all the other faces on MTV and she's a...unique presence (she feels like being stoned and pushed from the back by someone on the scene-I like that 
) but she didn't revolutionize music, no matter what some wise ones might say.
Forgot to add another one-Teriyaki Boyz or whatever the spelling is.
Actually they're interesting. It sounds like a cat being pulled by it's tail for the duration of the "song".
Rihanna (not a band but still incredibly overrated) is another portable boobs system that somehow gets praised 10x more than other pop singers, despite the fact that she sings exactly the same thing over and over again.

I disagree on Amy Winehouse. Sure, she hasn't done anything special as far as innovation, but she sings the blues, which is a genre that has changed very little in 100 years. And goddamn, can she sing.
The Arctic Monkeys are overrated.
And I can't believe that no one has said Dragonforce. They make me throw up in my mouth a bit.

There's a difference between "Overrated" and "Bad".
Linkin Park is definitely overrated. No doubt about it. Are they bad? No, in fact they're pretty good and one of my favorite bands.
More overrated bands:
Led Zeppelin, Beatles, Metallica, Red Hot Chili Peppers, the vaaaassssttttt majority of the bands with "hits" in the 2000s.
Although LZ, Beatles Metallica & RHCP are overrated, they're still very good. Excellent to listen to.
