“Unmasking the Hype: Are These Beloved Bands Just a Faded Echo?”
Boston
A career spanning over the course of several decades, Boston shouldn’t be seen as an overrated rock band. And yet, they kind of are overhyped with lackluster songs that don’t hit home, like “Most Than A Feeling.”
It is less of an arena rock band and more of a band that would sing an opening credits song to a coming of age movie.
Green Day
Green Day might have been a fun band in the 1990s and early 2000s, but when people become more attuned to good music, it is easy to see that Green Day is a bit overrated for a “pop-punk” group.
Attempting to be a British punk group like the Sex Pistols, Billie Joel Armstrong’s watered-downed voice leaves little to admire.
Radiohead
A band is definitely labeled overrated when they can’t even stand one of their most popular songs. In this case, it is Radiohead and their song “Creep.” They literally refuse to play it at live shows.
When it comes to their other music, people tend to be way too eager to hop on the Radiohead bandwagon without actually listening to the tracks.
Bon Jovi
An arena rock band, Bon Jovi, found their formula early on and never once strayed. Hey, it worked, but Richie Sambora strumming his guitar in the back while Jovi belted out songs like “Livin’ on a Prayer” and “Runaway” isn’t the most innovative.
