a true supergruop is wone where all the members are FAMOUS,
the traveling wilbury's, for all their suck, were a supergroup.
Fatomas, is just a bunch of dudes who played in previous bands (mike patton the only "famous" one). by that definition sonic youth is a supergroup, with members of the crucifucks, Branca's guitar orchestra, The Coachmen, The Arcadians, and CKM
velvet revolver, for all their suck, are a supergroup
everyone else mentioned on here is just bands, dude. just bands.
:P

I don't think they have to be FAMOUS. But they do have to be thought of as ranking among the best in their genre...that's why Fantomas IS a super-group. Even though Dave Lombardo isn't Kurt Cobain famous that doesn't mean he isn't one of if not the best drummer in his genre.
