bacon

omg, yes. Love bacon, don't get me wrong. But it's not the end all be all of foods. It's not even the end all be all of breakfast foods.

Bacon is my favorite thing listed. The dramatic bacon love is just silly.

I understand why everyone likes Nirvana. They started a movement. Soon after they came on the seen EVERY band became a grunge rock band. But you know what? The Smashing Pumpkins were way better. And the reason they didn't start a movement of everyone making the same music is because nobody could.

I would just like to say, "eff You, Billy Corgan and your self inflated worth." Neither Nirvana nor Billy Corgan started a movement because they were extensions of what several other bands had been doing for years. Both just happened to be more marketable sounds in comparison to those before them.

Smashing Pumpkins are definitely completely overrated.

Name me a 90's band that is not overrated, and I'll name you a dozen that are.

Interesting because 3+ people have agreed Nirvana is overrated and you're the only one claiming the Smashing Pumpkins are.

What a stupid thing to argue about.  Appreciation of music is inherently subjective.  Do you rough ridin' like it or not?  Who gives a eff where it's "rated"?  Nevermind that you cannot reach an objective consensus on where it's "rated" in the first place before you begin to debate the merits of said "rating".  Pointless.  It's goddamned sounds people find enjoyable to listen to or they don't.

I'd argue that a couple of those bands are underrated. I don't disagree with Nirvana and Pumpkins being overrated though.
