Who do you think is the most over-hated artist?
This question hasn't been asked here in a while, and most of the early answers just consist of Nickleback. I want to hear examples of artists you personally love, yet seem to also get loads of hate and criticism in general. Is that criticism justified?
I'll go first: Dance Gavin Dance. Post-hardcore band from the mid 2000s-present that has very mixed reviews. Folks seem to either love them or hate them. Sure, a lot of their songs are pretty cheesy and they definitely have some songs that are trainwrecks, but a lot of the time that chaotic and over-the-top energy is what makes their music incredibly interesting to listen to. They also have a HUGE discography and there's some truly hidden gems in there.
