this is just a totally spurious and speculative commentary, dealing with unproveable slurs against the personalities in the band . . .

How is this in ANY way relevant to why they might be considered over-rated?
Even if they WERE all deviant nazi satanist baby killing father rapers, of what relevance would that be to the quality of their product, or a possibly misguided public rating of it?

Personally I WANT my rock musicians as twisted and messed up as possible - if anyone deserves to be damaged by hard drugs and weird sex it's them . . . (if you've spent any time around musician's egos, I'm sure you'll understand)

As for musicians who don't do drugs, especially those who take a public stance against drugs - Frank Zappa not withstanding - I agree totally with Bill Hicks' summation: "They SUCK! Soul-less, Spineless, ball-less suckers of Satan's c**k, every last one of 'em."
