LET'S ARGUE: The Most Overrated Albums of All Time Pt. 2 

I think a lot of people say 'bad production' when they mean, "I don't like the beats"

Not even memeing but a dude who looks like Fantano stole my girl in April and I haven't recovered since.

Most overrated album ever: EVERY RAP ALBUM EVER! Sincerely, Ben Shapiro

Some of these responses aren’t “this album is overrated”, it’s more like “I listened to this album once and don’t get the hype”

LET'S ARGUE: Album Art Opinions Whole episode about album art. Good ones, bad ones, etc. Edit: 😳

Do Underrated albums now

OK Computer not taking risks? Huh?

When did people become so obsessed with albums having to be experimental?

Rate every album you've given a 10 from worst to best

Damn Anthony I don't mind you liking Lana Del Rey but I don't think "wanting to die in her thighs" is a valid reason to like her work.

Saying that Lana's music is sleepy is equivalent to saying that all rock music is just screaming.

OK Computer? Seriously? Radiohead may not be everyone's cup of tea, but come on. It's brilliant.

Let's Argue: Anthony Fantano overrates himself by self-proclaiming the internet's busiest music nerd

"Radiohead is overrated. Thom Yorke's solo output however, is brilliant!" Quote by Thom Yorke.

Every second of In The Court of The Crimson King is perfect and necessary.

I’m not even a huge Radiohead fan and I think Ok Computer is a masterpiece. Also I still think Climbing Up the Walls is their best song. It gives me the chills every time

LET'S AGREE: Your moustache is sponsored by Pizza hut

ik music is subjective but when someone says that the production on rodeo is BAD, ur jus wrong lmao

People: oK cOMpUtEr pReDIcTed nOthINg Those same people: listened to the album on their phone typed that on their phone and spent the rest of their day on their phone

NFR is such a fantastic album, I’m so happy you like it too!

Let's Agree: Death Grips should make a Christmas album this year

I swear this man’s opinion on Kid A changes every time he mentions it

People really confuse "overrated" with "bad"

If you don't like the Abbey Road medley I would probably have an aneurysm looking through your musical catalogue

Huey Lewis and The News Their early work was a little too new wave for my tastes, but when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor. In '87, Huey released , Fore, their most accomplished album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is "Hip to be Square", a song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity, and the importance of trends, it's also a personal statement about the band itself.

There’s usually a good reason why albums get overrated, and that reason is usually that they’re really good albums with a lot of passionate fans.

Thank you, I thought everybody was about to hate on Abbey Road and I was about to fight some people

“Here comes the Sun” and “Octopus’s Garden” are both bops

Let’s Agree: Anthony’s pronunciation of “Bollocks” is a solid 2.

The dude who thinks Low End Theory is overrated is buggin’ out.

I was never a fan of Lana but Norman Fucking Rockwell is an actually great album and it surprised me lots

I’d argue that while Is This It isn’t one of the most innovative album of all time, the sounds of the record went on to inspire The Killers, Arctic Monkeys, Kings of Leon, and many of the other big name bands of the 2000s and 2010s making it an incredibly important and influential record.

Fun fact: In Rainbows is Boris Yeltsin's favorite album

THAT LOW END THEORY TAKE MIGHT BE THE WORST OPINION I’VE EVER HEARD.

I wish I could listen to OK computer for the first time again.

To me, any criticism of the Door's debut is laughably absurd; It was unique and groundbreaking when it came out and immediately became hugely influential. Today, some 55 years later, it retains a mysterious power and yet is surprisingly listenable. How many great bands can lay claim to anything like it?

When fantano said “The doors - The doors” I felt that

I don't think the Santana debut sounding "too mexican" is a good critique but I agree with all your other points.

Me: *sees Abbey Road* *visible confusion*

How does someone have the time to listen and remember this much music.

Whoever said ‘Abbey Road’ needs to get their head checked...

The Low End Theory one got me hella triggered...

Dude, thank you for this! Way to give shoutouts where necessary especially for Abby Road and OK Computer. How anyone doesn’t get those records is beyond me.

DUDE, I Want You (She's So Heavy) with that fucking bassline has the most "OOMPH" of all the Beatles albums

ok boomer has honestly become a pretty underrated album compared to kid z

Lets Argue: people should turn their Mistfits shirts inside out before drying them

how is Norman F Rockwell overrated? in fact it deserves more recognition and awards.

i don’t give a shit about the singles on Abbey Road the full album is amazing and beautiful as a whole i can listen to it on repeat and every time i am equally amazed! i listen to it all the way through every time i go on a road trip, i sit down and listen to it whenever i drink with new friends. sometimes i just listen to just the medley at the end when i meet new people who haven’t listened to the album and i want to show them how well the last few songs lead into each other. i can’t physically express how much i love Abbey Road.

Let’s agree: my iron lung was the only song played in the video

Hey Anthony, my mom said I can go over to your place tomorrow night to study for the test as long as your mom picks me up.

NFR was Lana’s best album to date. Not overrated at all

No way The Doors self-titled is overrated. Pretty much every song on that album is hit and it was only their first record. Not to mention it was the album that gave us "The End" which is arguably one of the earliest punk songs not necessarily musically but content wise.

Some of these tweets read like people who have been listening to Fantano too much and now think that they're Fantano too lol

Crimson King is only 44 minutes long, how the hell can someone call it "Bloated"?

The Low End Theory and TPAB are in NO WAY overrated. They are both MASTERPIECES.

I feel like a lot of these takes don’t take into account how culturally significant and revolutionary these records were at the time. Sure, Abbey Road and Ramones and others are easy to pick apart nowadays, but they marked very important evolutions in music. This is why I love these records and others that can seem “overrated” in modern times. Without some of these records we would not have a lot of albums and bands we enjoy

“You Never Give Me Your Money” and “Oh Darling” slapped on Abbey Road also

The new calassic= criminally underrated

"The Bends" is nearest to brit-pop and you can't really say that it's brit-pop. It's more like a mockery on brit-pop on one hand and an original work on the other.

I love these kind of videos and I would like to point out while there’s no question at all that heavy production has worked for so many bands but it also can be mistaken for being over bloated and not that good I meant no dissrespect for annoying with an opinion but half the albums on this list I couldn’t care less about or care to listen to. And that includes Beatles Ramones etc but for people who love those bands hats off to you

Rodeo is perfectly rated, that shit feels like another dimension 😔

*why does your voice sound different, Melon*

Still think that Abbey Road is the best Beatles album, where they combinate al the expirience they got from last albums sry for bad english

That hot take on Low End Theory and by proxy Tribe Called Quest actually fucked me up. I didn't expect to have that violent of a reaction to some random dude saying that about my boys! Damn.

OK Computer: *literally changed the course of rock music forever* Y'all: nah

*puts Abbey Road in the thumbnail me: *OOOOOH no.

There are scores of mid-60s garage rock bands on comps like Back from the Grave / Nuggets / Teenage Shutdown / Pebbles with fast, chunky, and overdriven punk that completely invalidate the idea that somehow the Velvet Underground were the first to do it.

Everyone talking about bad production like the alt-right talks about socialism...

Dudes who called Low End Theory and TPAB overrated should get slapped by their mommas

Fun fact: Brian Wilson tried to get a horse in the studio during the recording of the song “Caroline No” but the idea was quickly shut down.

Break on through is one of the most underrated rock tracks of all time and is an influence to a lot of 2010-2020 hard indie bands

NFR is one of the best albums ever. Finding it overrated is hilarious

His moustache is overgrown nose hair

Lmao I love how he disses The Bends at the end and immediately uses My Iron Lung as an outro

EXCUSE ME SIR, YOU CANNOT JUST DISS MAXWELL’S SILVER HAMMER AND THEN GO ABOUT YOUR DAY 😡

I have a real soft spot for Abbey Road and all of the songs on it, it isn’t my personal favorite Beatles album but it’s definitely runner up (my favorite is rubber soul if you’re wondering). I’ve warmed up immensely to the medley, and I love all of the songs on side 1 especially I Want You (She’s so Heavy), Here Comes the Sun, and Octopus’ Garden.

Can we get a most overrated melons list? I liked cantaloupe a lot as in high school but revisiting it now the flavor hasn't aged well.

Whoever said Court see me after school in the parking lot.

I love listening to you talk Anthony.

Very well said about OK Computer. I love your descriptions.

"Tracks in King Crimson album are too long" Do you even Prog Rock bro? Like bruh...King Crimson is tame compared to how long Prog Rock tracks can get. Just look at ELP.

Do most underrated albums next

"Moonchild" is literally my favorite King Crimson song...

Oh my I was just thinking about Become The Knight when he talked about the doors, and then I looked down and lo and behold, agreed on the album too!

I absolutely love Paul's "Granny Shit". Especially Maxwell. I love the story it tells, the juxtaposition of the cheery sound with the grim lyrics, and the massive amount of variation in the instrumentation.

imagine saying Abbey Road is overrated lmaooooo

Hey Fantano, how about reviewing some classic soul albums? It's a genre I haven't seen touched upon as much on your channel. What's Going On, Quiet Storm, There's a Riot Goin' On, Inspiration Information, The Payback are some suggestions!

7:38 Caroline, No literally has 30 seconds of barking dog sounds at the end of the song

10:26 Yes, Kid A was far more ambitious but that doesn't mean OK Computer doesn't deserve it's praise. It did exactly what it should have. It builded on the sounds of the time and also stood the test of time, still being a great and important record to this day.

I can appreciate your perspective on my answer, Melon 🤘 interesting call out on Soul Kitchen.

When I don’t enjoy a critically acclaimed album I just kinda have to realize that it just means that the music isn’t for me

OK Computer is rated quite right. It is nearly perfect in every way. I'm not even a big fan of Radiohead. But the sound and impact of that album is undeniable.

I wasn’t emotionally prepared for soul kitchen to be described as a “proto walking on the sun”

Y’all dissing Rodeo like Trav dont got the arguable top 3 trap songs just off that album

Let’s be honest you still agree with Fantano even when you disagree with him

I actually really like The Bends and might even group it with my fav Radiohead albums. Maybe that's because I'm a bit of a normie and I haven't devoted quite enough time to really get into stuff like Kid A and Amnesiac, but I dunno man, I guess I just like the 'conventional alt rock' sound. That's kinda my preferred era of music (not that I don't listen to new stuff). My Iron Lung rips and High and Dry is a beautiful song.

Imagine thinking tpab is overrated

Pet sounds has barks tho in “Caroline, No”

Lol the person who said the King Crimson record is overrated doesn’t know what bloated means.

I appreciate your incites. Subscribed.
