Elliott Smith is totally overrated, he's good but that kinda singer songwriter stuff ain't for me, and his voice can be so annoyingly twee. And I don't really get Belle and Sebastian.
But King Crimson's praise is very much deserved and if anything I think they have more underrated albums than overrated ones. Wilco also deserve their praise. Maybe The Who are a little overrated and that comes with the territory of being one of the biggest bands in the universe (I don't like them as much as Zep or Floyd) but they're still awesome.
Of the british invasion I easily consider Stones the most overrated. Still a great band but I'm talking relative to many of their peers.
