In My Question Time Of Dying

What band (or solo act or whatever) is both as overrated and underrated as Led Zeppelin?

    Pretenders (brilliant exactly and only twice: the adultress, my city was gone)
    Father Josh Minty (either total douchenugget or genius)
    REM (great 1986-1992, not the revolution people suggest)

    • The Central Shaft

      Misty put out the best rock single of the last ten years. Also a total dickhole, so agreed.

        Caught him live last year. A competent show, but weird experience that boiled down to hours of me standing there thinking “I think this guy’s an ass, but not sure yet.” Still am not.

  2. Cube

    The kinks?

  3. Tor Haxson

    My first instinct is to say Devo.

    But they almost fall into the great at first not so great later category.. and I don’t think that is what you are looking for.

  4. Paula

    RHCP

  5. Ray

    The Doors.

    Regrets either way.

  6. The Central Shaft

    The Dan. I said it and I’m as big a fan as anybody.

      Blasphemy! Would you care to explain? I can’t fathom the idea of the Dan being overrated.

  7. Ritchie vanian

    The grateful dead

  8. Luther Von Baconson

    the association?

    My best friend once remarked that Frank Zappa was “the most over-rated of the under-rated rock guitarists.”
