NMH are good but In the Aeroplane Over the Sea gets wayyyy too much hype when On Avery Island isn't any worse and that album is pretty much ignored. But back to In the Aeroplane Over the Sea being overrated. Pitchfork gave it 10, which instantly makes it overrated because it then becomes this godlike album amongst indie hipster bitches.

ITAOTS is overrated(Obviously), but as a band they aren't overated.

Over rated: Pretty much any rap-rock and nu-metal was over rated in its time. Gorillaz, Neutral Milk Hotel is agreeable over hyped, Nirvana (decent band but didn't do as much as they get credit for), and NIN.

Under rated: Siege, Joy Division, Camel, The Birthmarks, pretty much any Mike Patton project can't be hyped enough, and Bongzilla.

Agreed on Frank Zappa. Just owning a couple his albums covers a multitude of genres.
