Actually I think its a case of them being vastly underrated considering their influence on contemporary music despite constantly being overshadowed by the Beatles, who, IMO are the most overrated band of all time.

I second the Good Charlotte comment;
however, I personally feel like the f***ing Jonas Brothers should be crowned here.
Damn Disney bands shouldn't get rep like they do for playing 3 and 4 chord progressions using the same notes in every goddamn song, singing about love at age 15 or whatever. thats a steaming pile of bulls**t.

The fact that the Rolling Stones have lived on and continued to tour even now when the sound and show is not nearly what is was has hurt their legacy. It's unfair but it is the reality. They've gone on making albums way past their prime and though they mostly produced above average records, the fact that they never lived up to their early prolific era takes away from perception their significance and influence.

Very well put. If they broke up after Exile, close to nobody would be talking about how overrated they are. Sometimes I like to believe they died in a plane crash after Exile on Main Street.

IMO Exile is an overrated piece of crap, they all should have died after Sticky Fingers.

The way I see it, the Stones never made a good album, just good singles (and a few good album-cuts). I can never listen to a complete Stones studio album without getting bored.
