Nirvana, even though one of my favorite bands, is the most over-rated band in history... They are credited with so much more than they actually did... Pearl Jam accomplished 10x more musically then they ever did and get much less credit...

AC/DC is up there too... I like them, but I don't understand how people can listen to them religiously...

And Linkin Park isn't over-rated... They just suck...

 Last time I checked, there was no song anywere near that. Don't be ignorant, if you have an opinion, then state a good reason (even "just because i don't like them would be better than that). IMO Linkin Park is over-rated, but only buy the Pop community. They are a great band, with great songs, and acctualy sound good live (plus, they are this thing called "original" in the way they sound compaired to other bands). I think that New Found Glory is good, he acctualy sings like the way he sounds. Blink 182 may have some Pop songs that people don't like, but if you have any sense of humor, then you should like the unreleased songs. The same goes for Linkin Park (except not the funny part) and New Found Glory. I think H.I.M is terribly over-rated by the metal community. He is a **edited** and seriously sucks. And as for AFI, I like the Leaving Song Pt.2 video. it's a huge mosh-like pit.

I agree. I also have to throw metallica in here

Don't blame me, I voted for Kodos.

There was a little band named Limp Bizkit doing what Linkin Park is attempting to do before they were ever around... And even though they blew, they still did it better...

There is honestly nothing appealing about Linkin Park to me... They have horrid lyrics to synthetic sounds... I don't see the need for bands now a days to just come out and talk explicitly about how their lives suck and want to kill themselves while screaming into a mic...

At least Fred got some ladies too...

 They don't have but like one song like that. You obviously don't listen to them except for the songs on the radio. And buy your sig and name, you either are black, like hip hop, or are a wigro (not a slur you little punks, just a funny name for all those rich white kids listening to 25 cents and wearing thier Abocromie and Phat Pharms)

Well if that was directed towards me... You nailed it...

Wait... No you didn't...

I'm very much white... Very middle class... Very against new rap... Samuel L. Jackson is a great actor... And the user name... Well, this is a paintBALL forum right?

I've heard enough of them, besides what's on the radio, to judge...

If you like them, great... But in my opinion they suck, always have sucked, and will continue to suck for all eternity...

Have a great one...

Not are they just over-rated, they are also a bad band... They haven't accomplished anything as a band besides putting bad lyrics to mediocre music...

My main complaint with them is their lyrics... Bands in the older days (I mean BC to pre-1997) had just as much angst (probably more and probably for better reasons too) as Linkin Park did or does... However most of the good band's lyrics were not as explicit as Linkin Park's and actually took some emotional insight to write down on paper...

Screaming your heart out into a mic talking about crap in such a direct way with a mixer in the back takes 0 skill... This goes for all newer bands (not that they all do this, but a lot)... Rock and Roll is on its death bed because of this new scene...

I commend them for making millions though...

if you knew what linkin parks music was about then you wouldnt say that. Linkin park is a talented band and a band that doesnt lip sing like many other bands or singers at thier concerts.

linkin park is not overrated...they are overplayed. Once radio and mtv gets ahold of it they play it every 5 minutes..and mtv uses it as their one and only way to reach out to the rock scene other than crappy 311/maroon 5 junk....

If were going to say linkin park is overrated for screaming....

why cant we go ahead and say all heavy metal is over rated..or, 90% of the rock genre for that matter..becuse most rock bands scream at some point.


anyways....Rap=most overrated genre ever.
