i look at this in two viewpoints...one is the impact they had at the time. they helped bring grunge into the mainstream, and i'm sure they have influenced countless bands since. in this sense, i would say definitely not overrated. however, musically...kurt's songwriting...very overrated. while catchy, there really isn't much to the songs themselves. they are some of easiest ones to play, behind green day of course. they certainly have their place in history, but are far from a greatest band.
and yes, soundgarden was better =)
