DIAF!! How dare you put down the greatest bands to ever squeeze into Spandex and belt power ballads in front of thousands of big haired groupies? 😀

My personal list and yes, these are obviously based on personal opinion and not fact:

U2
Cold Play
Bob Dylan
Dave Matthews Band
Nirvana
Creed
Kanye West

Don't just say a band is over hyped because you don't enjoy them.

What other criteria should someone use to consider a band overhyped.

are you serious?
that in and of itself tells me that this thread is entirely rubbish.
Over hyped would mean a band that is BIG and has no right to being big (ie: they don't have talent)... please note: there is a HUGE distinction between not liking a band and saying they have no talent. Example: I HATE Pink Floyd.... yet I can agree that they are very very talented.

I know the definition of overhyped. My point is that more than likely you feel they are overhyped because you don't like them.

It usually doesn't, at least not any of the times I've seen it posted.

They are both well known for their personalities, love of cheese danish, and generally poor musical ability.

You do realize how many artists list the above under their Roots & Influences, right?


right and how many of those band have gone on to become overhyped bands themselves...
 
Green Day. Nothing but media darlings. They deserve a punch in the neck.
Panic at the Disco can burn in hell as well.
