Most of the bands in this thread have sold a lot of albums, I wouldn't call any of them underrated if we've all heard of them.

An underrated band doesn't get any publicity even though the music is good and doesn't sell many albums.

The guy that helped produce Beck's 'Mellow Gold' recorded a concept album called 'Forest For The Trees' in 1993.
It wasn't released until 1997 and still was a little ahead of it's time and didn't sell well at all because of bad promotion.
Even though it sounded kind of campy sober it was a work of genius when heard tripping, which few people tried.

The CD is on amazon for $.01 + $2.98 shipping. Now that's underrated.

Dreamworks Records shelved FFTT's second album and dropped tour support. :ohwell:

Maybe 'underrated' = 'no one likes them but me' :headbang:

I agree with VU being over and under rated (after hours is pure gold).

I'd be willing to guess the most underrated would be David Santo, for his song Scorpio rising. I can't be certain how popular it was back in the day, because I wasn't around then :smile:


EDIT: I take it back, Tom Waits gets my vote for most underrated. (Well atleast until the cover CD by Scarlett Johansson becomes famous)

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?


that track was in the new harold and kumar movie!

and like i made the hugest commotion during the movie to my friends, "OH MY GOD ITS 311!!!"


311 is tight, i love their old stuff. a b s o l u t e l y love it! :thumbup:

Afro Celt Sound System



And yeah.... Mahavishnu Orchestra never got the recognition they deserved. Saw them twice in the early Seventies... superb concerts, each one. The Birds of Fire album is just great. http://www.amazon.com/Birds-Fire-Mahavishnu-Orchestra-McLaughlin/dp/B00004VWA8/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1212358538&sr=8-1
