Post your favorite underrated band

I'm feeling like hearing some interesting music that I've never heard before, so I thought I'd start a thread on FReeper's favorite underrated bands. Post several good examples of their music and why you feel they're underrated. Should be fun.

I always liked “Hyperactive,” it has a little ska edge to it.

Interesting, very complex. I’d like to find better quality audio

Yeah, I know, but that one lousy file is the only one that anyone has ever uploaded to YouTube.

Here is a link to the full album in digital quality, which is a wonderful sonic experience.

Automatic Man (1976) - Full Album

It's the only place I can point to, where you can hear the track, Right Back Down, in full clarity.

Little side note .. I still own an unopened vinyl copy of this album that I picked up in London in 1989.

P.S. Right Back Down is at mark 24:25 on the full album file.

I like it. Need to ponder that sound, would love to get a really high definition copy on a good system with some separation. Apple speakers are pretty good but when it comes to atmospherics and subtleties in the bass line you only get a hint of what’s actually there. Thank you for introducing me to this, I’ll study it.

This is easy.

Coheed and Cambria.

A song from their last album. I had to play it every day for months after my dad died. Claudio Sanchez is a musical genius with an amazing voice. I’ve seen these guys 3x so far.

Coheed and Cambria “Colors”

“Stepping Out” by Joe Jackson I was sure it was about gay men finally coming out into their own. Santa Monica Blvd was chock full of young handsome guys 24/7. It was before aids. I’m still not convinced it isn’t.

I love Wild Horses. I think it is my favorite stones song. That and Can You Hear Me Knocking.
