I'm curious as to why some bands like RHCP, Rolling Stones, and Pearl Jam will ALWAYS be considered "cool" no matter how shitty their recent albums are while bands like U2 and Coldplay who (in their primes) were every bit as good and groundbreaking are constantly hated on and mocked,

U2 and Coldplay were never near as groundbreaking as Rolling Stones, Pearl Jam, or even RHCP.

U2's best album, The Joshua Tree, doesn't even come remotely close to the Stones' legendary run of albums from the late 60s to mid 70s.

Coldplay has a few good singles in the early 00s but never released an album as stacked as Pearl Jam's Ten or RHCP's Blood Sugar Sex Magik.

Also realistically, and musically aside, people just don't like Bono and Chris Martin for a number of reasons.
