What is the most name-dropped but never listened to bands? Historically what bands has the highest ratio of being mentioned or talked about but never listened to?

I’ll start.
>sonic youth
Normies right now love to mention sonic youth but anytime I try to talk about their early stuff or something less known like sonic nurse or even sister they blank. Also a lot of bands that claim SY influence but sound like pop punk
>velvet underground
This one is historical and kind of a meme. So many people have not a fucking clue what this band sounds like because they refuse to put it on for 5 minutes.
>king gizzard
For good reason. They were novel but fucking lame so everyone knew their name and zaney activities but no one really gave a shit about their music.

I'm really, REALLY tempted to say Red Hot Chili Peppers, but with how much I see Flea appreciated I don't think I can say that.
My best guess after that would be Godspeed but that just might be a side effect of the genre they're in being super niche to begin with.

Oh man the most glaring example of that is probably [your favorite band]

People always like to talk about [your favorite band] and say how influential they were and how good [their best album] was but really they're all just pretending for cool point. Nobody actually listens to [your favorite band] for real because they suck ass, and if you enjoy [your favorite band] unironically then I'm sorry but you are either lying or a retard

My favorite band is Jamiroquai. People only talk about it when they see fuzzy hats.

Bob Dylan because outside LARS and TTTAAC almost nobody has actually listened to any of his catalog.
