 Not really a band, but...
Autechre
It's the most tripped out music ever made IMO, or at least that I've come across. It seems peoples minds are too limited to understand their true power and effect.
Or maybe it's that people need to just eat more mushrooms and acid, then listen to them!
For me, Autechre is easily the most under rated music. Please don't try to argue unless you've already tried eating 5 grams of boomers and listening to them

311 - Homebrew, from the Grassroots album. Great song talking about having good times and doing acid.

311 - My Stoney Baby, off the Music album.
More or less a song about a quest to get with this stoner chick that he's really into. Very upbeat, yet mellow enough to listen to while smoking.
<3 311.
More?

Yes! I'm also a fan of Boards of Canada, not sure how popular/known they are though so they might not technically be underrated.

For jam music.......Omar Rodriguez Lopez.....Between Defacto, At the drive inn, The Mars Volta, and all his solo work, he has something like 37 albums of sheer genius, and he says he's got more than 400 songs written waiting to be produced.
For rock music it would have to be Blind Melon. Those guys are freaking amazing and people think they are just a one hit wonder.
Boards of canada for techno.
For stoner rock.....THE SWORD.
For Progressive rock there is a TON.....These bands put out some great music and don't get shit for recognition for it.....Dream Theater....Liquid tension experiment....The Flower Kings....Porcupine Tree...There's a ton more too....

Mike Oldfield...
he's so fucking amazing.
His album Tubular Bells... I've never heard a more amazing and moving piece. Most people just know the opening theme because of The Exorcist, and that's why it's underrated. The album in its entirety is where it's at. The transitions always blow my mind.
Also...
Straylight Run.
Not many have heard of them, but they have some really awesome songs, most of which are really trippy. First CD, which is self-titled, is the best.

The mars volta are far from over rated. It's such an aquired taste I can barely ever get someone into their jams, because they think it's just "noise".
Those guys should truley be making millions, not some bullshit like linkin park.

I remember a couple years ago it was cool to like Mars Volta, I'd see tons of people wearing Mars Volta shirts and whatnot.
I think it's fair to say that they are overrated.

Bandersnatch, if you like those bands, I'd suggest checking out Do Make Say Think, but something makes me think you already know of them.

No, they are over rated. Yes, the guitar is pretty damn good. But christ, that guys voice is like fingernails on a fucking chalkboard. And the lyrics are crap too. They don't deserve the following they have. It's not good music, IMHO.

Really I didn't say the mars volta......
I was talking about their guitar player Omar Rodriguez Lopez ( who is obviously under rated, because you picked the mars volta out of the list of projects, when really Omar needs the recognition ).
He is a beast of a song writer, he's in 3 active projects right now. And he's done work with a lot of other musicians. The only thing he ever really gets credit for is the mars volta, the rest of his work goes unnoticed.
