Lists
I identify almost completely with the author of this list. I’d add that the gap between how much I enjoy Sleater-Kinney and how much I’m supposed to is closing, but it’s certainly not closed. And I sometimes wonder if the people who think I really am supposed to be enjoying Liz Phair might just be mistaken.
I’d add the following:
6. Wu-Tang Clan
7. Rolling Stones
8. Interpol
9. Afgan Whigs
10. Elliot Smith
Others?
(This is not a list of overrated bands per se, or bands that have strong critical reputations that I don’t like. I’m taking this seriously as “bands I’m not enjoying as much as I’m supposed to”–only listing bands I do enjoy, but fear I’m just not ‘getting it’ the way many of their fans do)
