The Cat Posted 12 January, 2012 Share Posted 12 January, 2012 REM are f**king sh*t. Spitting Image had it right when they did a spoof of "Shiny Happy People" called "Whiny Cr*ppy Music" Shiny Happy People is undoubtedly a horrible song, but REM aren't crap, their early stuff up until Green is decent, and even after that they have written some good songs. I mainly have issues with bands that I believe are hideously overrated such as Abba, Queen and Oasis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pap Posted 12 January, 2012 Share Posted 12 January, 2012 Arctic Monkeys. Inspired a whole cult of morons at my college. They're everything I despise about modern music. They're not funny, they're not clever, and they're certainly not entertaining. Was a bit wary of this lot on account of the hype, but I disagree with you, at least on their first album. Don't really think that they're trying to be funny as such, more like trying to capture what its like to be twenty-something in England. However, there's nothing more offputting about a band than fans who are nobs, so I have some sympathy for your position. As someone who just listened to them on his iPod, I really liked them.

Lord Duckhunter Posted 12 January, 2012 Share Posted 12 January, 2012 There's obviously a pile of crap out there and always has been. Freddie and the Dreamers anyone......... But the most over rated, and therefore in my eyes the worst "serious" band of all time has to be Queen. I just dont get the hero like status they seem to endure. Slade were 100 times better,so even in their "peak" they were shiete.As for bohemian rhapsody, dont even get me started, the most pretentious load of ******** ever written and people study it like it's some sort of great work of art. Dont like U2, but can see why people do. Worst artists; Jackson-Cant understand how he's got away with it. Should have been locked up years ago, in the Glitter file in my opinion. Kylie-Nice arse, but no talent. Sting (last 10 years) A complete and utter plum.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pap Posted 12 January, 2012 Share Posted 12 January, 2012 Indeed, when it inspires teens in New York to put on Yorkshire accents, that's when I feel sick. That's actually pretty funny. Fake Tales of San Francisco, a song on their first album, is all about people who pretend to be from somewhere else. He talks of San Francisco, he's from Hunter's Bar I don't quite know the distance But I'm sure thats far Yeah I'm sure thats pretty far And yeah, I'd love to tell you all of my problem You're not from New York City, you're from Rotherham So get off the bandwagon, and put down the handbook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was their first compilation of all the classic 60s singles. Brilliant! And Who's Next - a superb album. You're just being silly - or you've never really listened to them! Maybe so but I don't like their sound, to my ears a faux angry noise penned to please. No prob with that as I guess every artist needs a formula, just not my cup of tea. I have no problem with others liking them though. When they Played the Rose Bowl I won tickets and in all honesty took 7 phone calls to mates before I could offload them!

No prob with that as I guess every artist needs a formula, just not my cup of tea. I have no problem with others liking them though. When they Played the Rose Bowl I won tickets and in all honesty took 7 phone calls to mates before I could offload them! Granted - but I'm talking about the 60s/early 70s-era band. They were an early pioneer of the power-trio format - no rhythm guitar, just drums, bass and lead guitar. But what a trio - the free-form, manic drumming of Keith Moon, the assertive bass-playing of Entwhistle, and the flailing, in-your-face guitar of Pete T. As far as the material goes, I would hardly refer to Pete's writing as "faux-angry". And certainly not designed to please. He did want he wanted. His stuff is intelligent: sometimes angry, sometimes sensitive. And back in he 60s (before the the dominance of the LP), the band focused primarily on the singles market and produced a variety of very distinctive 45s.
