Most overrated bands ever?

I always thought that maybe by 2010 Muse migith make a really oblique eletronic / rock album with barely intelligible lyrics and vocals and call it "Kid B"...hehehehehehe...

I own the first Muse album, and after a few careful listens I just couldn't go with the band - they sounded like less than the sum of their parts - some parts "The Bends" on steriods, other times drawing heavily from Jeff Buckley... it just sounded all so familiar, and even now the band seems to be a good 2 - 3 years behind whats actually going on that is new...

Because we all know that every band you hear has to be absolutely unique to grab your attention...
