Under-rated bands

[Godspeed64]

Matchbook Romance, Millencolin, Jimmy Eat World, The Ataris..
Can only think of the bands I listened to during my "punk" listening days.. Haha

 

[hatecrew]

old Silverchair (pre-Young Modern, but Frogstomp/Freak Show era was the best)
Soundgarden. way better than Pearl Jam imo, which is quite overrated.
Green River
Mudhoney
Gov't Mule
Whitesnake
Black Stone Cherry

 

[dudelove]

i friggin LOVE whitesnake.

 

[kirk101!]

local acts count?

i think b quartet. or trella maybe.

[evodia]

I think Avenged Sevenfold is just being themselves.

i don't think their emo, their inspiration comes from alot of diffrent metal bands.

They are quite good, won some award in MTV, i think best new artist? forgotten when.


Under rated?


Grunge music?
Gothic?

 

[Akira-Portnoy]

OZ band, KARNIVOOL.

GO LISTEN. GO GO GO GO.

 

[metalhead1993]

for me its Primus and Priestess. And btw a7x aren't being themsevles, they're textbook sellouts! Used to like em, but after going to their gig not anymore.

 

[josucker]

porcupine tree!

 

[Akira-Portnoy]

porcupine tree!

+1! Gavin Harrison is a badass.

 

[Kamelot]

Rainbow
Sigur Ros

 

[recklessnick]

whats underrated is emo bands like rites of spring and screamo bands like saetia, funeral diner, off minor, etc. their genres have been falsely labelled on some of the world's most popular bands and none of these pioneering bands get any attention from the media.

 

[Plastic]

Post rock and electronica is pretty underrated here

 

[shredrat]

local bands...

Yea, haven't seen much mention of post-rock here. Post-rock's one of my favourite genres. It's quite the "in" thing in Australia atm. You should move, Plastic. Haha.

[blackbird]

Mine would be:
-Meiko
-Feist
-The Postal Service
-Jenny Lewis
-KT Tunstall, people tend to think shes more pop then folk/rock/acoustic, but after her Acoustic Extravaganza album and live performances shes definitely more folk.
