Your standards are way too high.

Bellamy shows some very impressive chops as a guitarist, keyboardist AND a singer. To say he has no talent is ridiculous. So he chooses to play music thats hardly anything more than a throwback to 70s art rock, you're basically saying you don't like his style of music therefore he's not talented.

Theres a lot of music I hate but I can still appreciate that theres talent that goes into it. I can't stand most progressive metal music like Dream Theater but I appreciate that a lot of talent goes into it. More so than a lot of music I like.

Hell, musicianship-wise Journey were insanely talented, Steve Perry and Neal Schon especially, and just because I hate their music dosen't take away from that, talent should always be appreciated even if you don't like the music.
