U2

The most overrated band in the world, ever. They had a classic album called the Joshua Tree, which actually was outstanding (but it wasn't even the best album of '87, as that honor goes to Appetite For Destruction), and All I Want Is You was great and had an emotion-stirring video. They had some good singles, too, but no other completely great album. Everybody sucks their asses by calling them the greatest, and the media hypes them up, but they've made a career of making the same mundane, boring song. The Edge has played the same guitar line for years. Bono always tries to act like he is so cool, like when he was mugging for the camera in his sunglasses in that iPod commercial, for one example. He makes me sick with his self-righteousness. Their attempt to rock on the song "Vertigo" sounds like a sterilized and soul-less garage-rock production, as if to say "we want to rock hard, but not too hard that it will drive our fanbase away".
