WWAW bands that were hyped as the next big thing and promptly disappeared into nothingness?

Vines were always gonna be a flash in the pain despite having one or two songs on that debut that I dig.
Foster The People’s Torches is a stone cold classic of it’s genre. I still listen to it. For that particular scene at that point in time, it was fantastic. He’s had a couple good songs since but nothing like that album.

Never heard from them again after Oh Dara.

The entire garage rock revival in 2001/2002 was just a weird flash in the pan. Jack White is the only one I can think of who is still relevant from that time.

I like it when the industry tries to force a band into being big as a certain style is popular but they just can't get it right.
In the uk there was this band who hadn't even put out more than one song and we're tipped to be huge. Obviously all the journalists hyping them up were doing some record company a favour. They realised one single that got some airplay the singer was in a episode of peep show and that was it.
Oh and holy shit this band called Brother. They were cocky little bastard but got a lot of press during the indie boom. They called their debut "famous first words" but got dropped as it and they were SHIT. Somehow the music industry really pushed them they even did Letterman

I'm legitimately curious - What songs on that album do you dig? They were always terrible.

Their lead singer has quite a good YouTube music review channel now if you ignore the click bait titles and considering his type of singing can still perform live. He's even done a few songs for Queen
They were a great tongue in cheek band. Not enough of those anymore. But they certainly got big for a while

Paramore were fucking huge for years among the faggot emo/scene crowd in the late 00's and regularly played arenas. They got even bigger after having music in those twilight movies and then the singer did that airplane song with some nigger and she blew up on her own. The whole band left but they didn't matter anyway and she just got nobodies to replace the nobodies.

The first Wolmother album was legit then the singer fired the two guys that made it good.
The first two Darkness albums are great then the singer fired the cocaine.
