Good Charlotte for sure.

Have you heard Primal Screams latest single? Bloody awful.

I'll say Rolling Stones, this could mostly be due to an unfortunate incident involving my aunt and a kareoke machine, never been able to get into them since. Being less biased, Arctic Monkeys. Good album, but not a classic album.

How is this in ANY way relevant to why they might be considered over-rated?
Even if they WERE all deviant nazi satanist baby killing father rapers, of what relevance would that be to the quality of their product, or a possibly misguided public rating of it?

Personally I WANT my rock musicians as twisted and messed up as possible - if anyone deserves to be damaged by hard drugs and weird sex it's them . . . (if you've spent any time around musician's egos, I'm sure you'll understand)

As for musicians who don't do drugs, especially those who take a public stance against drugs - Frank Zappa not withstanding - I agree totally with Bill Hicks' summation: "They SUCK! Soul-less, Spineless, ball-less suckers of Satan's c**k, every last one of 'em."
