Overrated

Also I don't want to come off as a Zep fan boi here, but this is the same argument used every time.

Did Led Zep rip off their country riRAB? Or their Folk riRAB? or how about that salsa jam in the middle of Fool in the rain?

I don't ask much, I just ask that you educate yourself enough to speak intelligently. Maybe im asking to much, so if I am, please refrain from "recycling" the same garbage a million other posters here stated. The newbs need the help, you regulars should know better.
 
Haha to whoever said Radiohead are overrated.
Sometimes the reason a band is "rated" so highly is because they deserve it.
Every meraber of Radiohead is extremely talented at their instrument, as well as the fact that most of them can play all of the other instruments.
Thom is an amzing songwriter, they are expirimental, but they still sound tight, they don't stray, it doesn''t go off in a million directions leaving you confused. They are a great band, and I haven't seen them rated all that highly.

Most people have heard the name radiohead, but couldn't name any songs.
And if they can name a song the one that they name wilil be Creep
 
Nothing, as long as it's good music.
It doesn't, but it shows how silly young people are today, for rating 40-odd year old banRAB (that weren't that good in the first place) above modern banRAB.... - they're STUCK in the past.
Wrong!! The Beatles, apart from making some classic tracks, also made some sh*t ones. Let's not forget that. Most of their tracks were frankly 'over-the-top', and a bit too nice. Let's face it - 'The Beatles', as a group of people, were a bunch of weirdo's!!! To me, they're very UN-likeable.
No I'm NOT saying that people who're dead have no importance. What about the royals of the past? They're important, and what about the engineers, such as Isarabard Kingdom Brunel? His bridge is still used today, 147 years after his death. And what about the surgeons of the past, testing out new ways to operate on people? They all matter.

Oh come on, let's not fight! Why do people like you take it upon themselves to get personal with someone and start calling them names?? It just makes you look like an idiot. Well, you must be a bit of a duffer, because you're taking this all too seriously!! :laughing:
 
BAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAAHHAHAHAHAHHAHA

Green Day has been around a lot longer than Good Charlotte and they kept it real back in the day. Who do you think is one of GC's influences?
 
Yeah, I doubt DT would be influenced by electronica, but in my opinion, that's a good thing. lol

I definitely consider Radiohead to be a progressive band, and I agree that they are original. I just don't like them as much as DT.
 
Instrumentaly, a lot of their stuff reminRAB me of Rush with a different singer...Plus they sound like Styx and Saga to me, and neither of those banRAB were top of the prog heap to begin with.
 
I didn't say that they ripped off the specific riRAB of the folk or country or salsa stuff, but it's not like the style had never been used before, but they ripped off the style. And that's fine, because everyone rips off someone else in some way, and Led Zeppelin kicked ass while doing it. However, they shouldn't be credited as original for writing folk songs or mixing latin rhythms into their music.
 
I just don`t see how a band who uses every cliche under the sun (Their song titles seriously make me piss myself laughing) can call themselves progressive.

I bet they even have amps that go up to 11.
 
Hmmm... the thread was on what I'm listening right now... so I tell what I'm listening right now. I have have over 4000 songs on my playlist and I put it on random... it could have been a Greenday... 50 Cent... Rise Against song. If I listened to Greenday whe I was younger I keep their songs on my computer. Same thing for Good Charlotte. I'm not denying your point 'cause I also think that Greenday is one of biggest influence of Good Charlotte...

and I exagerated by using the word ''crappy''... I admit that I'm still listening to them sometimes but I also still think that they are overrated!
 
Arctic monkeys, big fuss over nothing if you ask me. but then again, i would say that cause i dont like them. cept one song.
 
If you have read all the post you should know that I said that I listen regulary to Greenday in the past and if I have listen to it recently is that I hit it on the random. Why I don't delete it? 'Cause I'm keeping all the songs that I liked in the past on my cpu.
