They are not unknown......therefore, they have fans. As for his initial list...every band on their is/was popular in their time.

popular in some places, T Rex was huge in england, but failed in the U.S because they were not ready for glam rock yet. T Rex and David bowie pretty much created glam rock.

that is a great album, I love the song a town called malice:D

Soundgarden. An amazing grunge band that hardly gets mentioned yet has tons of great music and a superb vocalist.

I find it interesting how a band like Nirvana gets mentioned over Soundgarden, Nirvana are pretty overrated actually... they sound very similar to Mudhoney while Soundgarden puts out their own styIe of grunge. Their album Superunknown is amazing (but that's not to say Ultramega OK and Louder Than Love are bad, oh no) , I like every song. I don't actually want to get into how much I like all their albums. Take me forever.foxhound_fox

Agalloch is awesome.

i would have to say Annihilator isan underrated band.

[QUOTE="Film-Guy"]that is a great album, I love the song a town called malice:DCrimzonTide

thats another great song, do you know the band the kaiser chiefs? they are pretty much a modern day jam.

popular in some places, T Rex was huge in england, but failed in the U.S because they were not ready for glam rock yet. T Rex and David bowie pretty much created glam rock.

Film-Guy

T Rex did have a hit here....and after listening to more of their music...it is the only song that deserved notice.

Great list. Captain Beefheart should be added on there somewhere,t oo.whos_next000

instead of argueing why dont we jsut think of some more bands:P

I agree. Soundgarden are certaintly superiorto Nirvana. I also would definately NOT put them on a 'most underrated' list... they were after all part of the Seattle 4...EboyLOL

[QUOTE="whos_next000"]Great list. Captain Beefheart should be added on there somewhere,t oo.QuinnTheEskimo

captain beefheart is indeed great, didnt he do that song muffin man with frank zappa?

every band has fans >__> whether it be their mothers or a large fan base.
blooddemon666

Yes...but my point is that does not make them underrated. If anything calling them underrated makes them overrated because you are assuming they are more worthy than they are. Because they aren't as popular as you personally (not you...general term) believe they should be does not mean they are underrated.

Hard to tell with them. Because some of their albums (TESF, STf) are overrated while others (Generator, Into the Unknown) are underrated...

The Lurkers are underrated, and sadly, you could make an argument that the Stooges are as well.

Do you even know what underrated/overrated mean?

Gimme a break! Soundgarden is NOT underrated. No, they did not get the publicity that Nirvanna got. Chris Cornell did not have his life scrutinized by the media like Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love etc. However, Soundgarden is one of the most influential "grunge"-era bands of all time.
