Sorry to gatecrash, but AC/DC must be the most overrated band in history.  I used to think Queen were that, but Queen are musical genius compared to the one trick ponies that are AC/DC.

 

Never understood the appeal of that band.  Why they are held in such high esteem when basically it's the same old same old, horrible screechy vocals, horrible juvenile lyrics and sentiment coming from really old blokes, same riffs, backed by horrible thudding rawk Bevis and Butthead clichÃĐs .

 

Why is their music in so many films?  Whenever there's a brain-dead action sequence in some lame action/sci fi blockbuster aimed at 14 year olds, the AC/DC is cranked up.  If AC/DC are in the soundtrack, it's a given that the film will be ****.

 

Sorry all, but just wanted to vent!

I don't understand what you mean by overrated! Nor do I understand the significance of their age. As it happens I don't have any of their music on my electric iPod, but I do remember the exciting live album.
