Regarding why I think they're overrated as a band, check out my reply to Clutnuckle above.

Well, I wouldn't have so much problem with their fandom if it was backed up by them playing extraordinary music. For the same reason I could put Pink Floyd on the list as well, since they always seem to be the first choice of aspiring art/prog rockers, but they were on the other hand true inventors.
