Is everything
The cast of current and past American Idol episodes. Especially Clay Aiken and Kelly Clarkson.

I like My Chemical Romance and Fall Out Boy, you jerk. :p

I have to agree with Nickelback, though. All their songs sound the same, just like Creed.

But you could say the same for all bands pretty much. Most bands songs' will tend to have the same style (sound).

Justin Timberlake sounds the same on every song I hear from him.
AC/DC sounds the same on every song I hear from them.
Usher sounds the same on every song I hear from him.
U2 seems to sound the same on every song as well.

etc...etc...etc...

That's just how it is. :)

Good call on all three of those. At least Coldplay has made a really good album, which is more than you can say for those other bands.

Or three. They have their place, but I have yet to hear a "crappy" Coldplay tune.

As far as played out - I too cannot stand Nickelback. But I guess that is the very definition of Pop Rock.

Matter of opinion. I think Coldplay is crap and I change the station when they come on.

Practically every band that has come out "post Grunge". That essentially covers it.

Green Day and the Chili Peppers have been around for a long time. Unlike the rest of the bands you listed they are established and not just overhyped newbies.

Green Day still qualifies, in my opinion.
