I think that we sometimes fall into the trap of giving bands to much credit. I know when I was studying English, the way we interpreted poetry made it seem as though we we're giving a lot of the writers credit for ideas that they may not have intended.
Do we do this to bands? I think that maybe we do.
I know someone was telling me about the depth of the lyrics that I write, and they made them sound far more impressive than I ever thought that they were.
Any thoughts similar or bands that you'd nominate as over-rated.
One that comes to my mind is Meshuggah. Everytime I hear a song I spend the first minute thinking how cool it is, the second minute getting slightly irritated with it, and the remainder wishing it would hurry the f**k up and finish. Maybe it's me who's lacking the understanding to appreciate it, maybe I'm completely losing the point of this entire thread?
