Most overrated albums in the world

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

"Justice" has some sh!tey tracks on it, admittedly... the "Now With Bass!" stickers pretty much summed it up :lol: ... BUT you can't argue with "One". :notworthy:

Can you?

"One." I use to love that song. It made me grow my hair long, sport Demin, and listen to thrash metal... then one day I looked in the mirror, and that spotty face wasn't so pretty. :lol:

Soundgarden, underrated? :eek:

I must be on the wrong planet... :innocent: I mean, they're not bad, but they do seem to get all the credit they're due.

re.metallica -kill 'em all;ride the lightning;master of puppets: couldn't agree more -they're all classics. the reason i hate metallica is their much-publicised tight-arsed attitude to file-sharing/napster /etc. i know this has been discussed elsewhere and i appreciate the "taking money out of the artists mouths" argument, but metallica are multi-millionaires....and an artist isn't supposed to be motivated by money. i know people (techno producers mainly) who make their product freely available.

....james ray is not a millionaire i'm sure .shame. :von:

Ah, the disparate membership of HL. :notworthy:

The world would be a very dull place without Metallica, even if we're not meant to be laughing at them half the time. Awesome band.

And Moby's Hotel is staggeringly good.

But, y'know, it depends on what 'overrated' means. If you think something is a crock of s**t, then it's a crock of s**t. Who gives a fig what the general population thinks.

But in keeping with the general mood, most 'nu-metal' is cack, as is the lightweight rubbish that fills the festival circuit year after bloody year. (coldplay, travis, all that).

Indeed. Fortunately, though, it doesn't really get any critical acclaim, unless your "critics" are dysfunctional 12-year olds with plug chains on their jeans. :roll:

Black Album has quite a few weakish tracks, but Wherever I May Roam... come on now! :notworthy:

Anything by Oasis. That hands-behind-the-back, whining into the microphone whilst wearing a f**k-off parka is so mid-90s, Liam.

I couldn't ever get enough of them. Heard their version of Old Rag Blues the other day (bought the blue vinyl 7" for my dad for Fathers' Day, we only just remembered where it was).
Blew me away.

as for overrated... I must say Ms. Marilyn Manson

Sure, there's a few songs worth listening to every now and then, but he's just as overrated as Nirvana in my opinion.
