FoolThemAll

I actually think the Foo Fighters are a better band than Nirvana. That's not to say that I think they're an excellent band, just that they're better than the merely good Nirvana. I never did get the fuss about In Utero, I see it as being somewhere between good and mediocre. "Rape Me" and "All Apologies" are Puddle of Mudd-level in quality. Although..."Heart-Shaped Box" is a very good song. So, my pick for overrated is not Nevermind but instead, In Utero.

Underrated? I'll go with the Stone Temple Pilots' Tiny Music. Sure, it had a mediocre/okay song in "Lady Picture Show", but the rest was absolutely aces. The biggest obstacle is the grating vocals, but I've grown to love them. "Trippin' on a Hole in a Paper Heart" is my favorite STP song, bar none. "Adhesive" is excellent. "Art School Girl" is alternately wonderfully catchy and awesomely grating. "And So I Know" has a slight Vandross edge to it. "Seven Caged Tigers" is perfect as a closer. I'd give it four-and-a-half used heroin needles out of five.

edit: Also, I consider Core pretty overrated. I seriously consider it STP's worst album. Never liked "Wicked Garden" or "Creep", and greatly prefer the acoustic version of "Plush" The non-singles are about half-great, half-bad as well.
