05.01.09 | I don't like CTTS either but shit. Settle down Nancy and have a thin mint. I used to be the same with Opeth but then I stopped caring for the better. |

05.01.09 | your existence is overrated too... |

05.01.09 | wtf you dont like the band we get it but your arguments against it are pretty poor jesus |
shortone323
05.01.09 | Hey, gaslight, where are your reasons for why it is so good? There's no way its a 5, and all the reasons here are valid.
Also, lol. |
luci
05.01.09 | "the vocals of this band are utterly annoying and serve almost no purpose"
no purpose? lol |

05.01.09 | I admit that I might have gone a little over the top with this list, but I simply do not understand what makes Circle Takes the Square such a great band. Please feel free to enlighten me. |

05.01.09 | yea, I've come to realize that this list of mine is not doing anything constructive, like inspiring debate, but is rather causing personal feuds. Even though I do not like the same music as you, I do not feel the need to resort to attacks on members to get my point across. Saying that, I do think that I went too far with this list, and I apologize to anyone who is offended by it. |
PuddleSwimmer
05.01.09 | You didn't go too far, you listed reasons why you didn't like them
Dont know why ppl are flippin shits, its not like you cursed them out 4 paragraphs straight....and the points are valid reasons to see a band as overrated.
I personally have no opinion on them, though |
Knott-
05.01.09 | lol @ easily offended people.
i've personally never even listened to them but you basically say that the drumming and vocals are purposeless, which is clearly completely wrong. |

05.01.09 | I would venture to say you know absolutely nothing about music sense you find CTTS's drumming redundant and their guitar parts mediocre and repetitive. Firstly for something to be repetitive it has to...umm...repeat a couple of times...the vocals are actually awesome but if you don't care for them that's understandable. Maybe if you took some time to look into the concept behind the record you would understand it. It's much more about being emotionally impacting than "omgz kewl riffz". |

05.01.09 | it's pretty funny when somebody comes out with a 'ctts sucks' but can never actually justify their criticism. 'the guitars are repetitive and serve to show the band has many medeocre [sic] qualities' - what does that even mean?
looking at your album ratings, i'm thinking you don't know what mediocre actually means.
ctts are not megadeth. they don't try to write 'good riffs'. maybe you should stick with your bad metal and leave the more intelligent and emotive music for the bigger kiddies. |

05.01.09 | i wouldn't say 5 is overrated because a lot of people actually hate them too or consider them average at most. |
NOTINTHEFACE
05.01.09 | Yeahh, rasputin pretty much nailed it. We're not deigning to "debate" you because you clearly have no idea what you're talking about. Analytical musings about the qualities of CTTS will do nothing to convince someone who is clearly so ignorant, so we merely seek to point out your own irrelevance with our "pointless insults", as you call them. |
LiquidVelvet
05.01.09 | I can understand you not ENJOYING CTTS, however, to not be able to APPRECIATE them at least shows a complete lack of understanding of music and emotion and the like.
However, what shocked me more about this list was number 5. I dunno how a band who almost EVERYone on Sputnik absolutely despises be considered Overrated. |
elephantREVOLUTION
05.01.09 | did anyone else notice tdwp on this list? i wouldnt call them overrated at all. a lot of people hate them on this site |

05.01.09 | when i went about creating a list of overrated bands, I chose bands that are consistently rated high by fanboyish members, not necessarily bands with the highest overall ratings, because people who hate the albums almost constantly bring the albums down with there votes. TDWP suffers from this, but CTTS has enough fanboys to keep the average rating of their album above a 4.
I am open to the genre that CTTS are included in, I just do not think they are a good representation of it. Also, with my ratings of the bands that I like, I only feel it is appropriate to voice my opinion when I feel a great urge to do so. That is why I do not often rank bands as mediocre because I feel that it is a waste of time doing so. I only made this list because of the negative reactions I received on my comments on the CTTS review. |

05.01.09 | you're still taking, well, the world, far too seriously. |

05.01.09 | i just went on another CTTS binge and ive got to say they deserve all the praise they get. its some of the most original and emotionally charged music ive ever heard |

05.01.09 | the one song I heard by Circle Takes The Square was brilliant |

myhigherpie
05.02.09 | the reason that we are not debating over it is because your reasons are so utterly redundant that any form of debate would be a vast waste of our time.
Instead, why don't you read one of the well thought out, well constructed reviews that our staff reviewers so graciously wrote for the album? |
Nagrarok
05.02.09 | List needs more Opeth. |
