Surrealisticpillows Posted August 18, 2004 Report Posted August 18, 2004 I agreee the flaming lips are underrated, as well as Yonder Mountain string band, And what happened to the Unicorns?
Batman Posted August 18, 2004 Author Report Posted August 18, 2004 Jake E. Lee definitely. When you talk about Ozzy's guitarists, you immediately talk about Randy (who is great) and Zakk (also great) but not Jake (also great)
beatleant Posted August 18, 2004 Report Posted August 18, 2004 definitely. When you talk about Ozzy's guitarists, you immediately talk about Randy (who is great) and Zakk (also great) but not Jake (also great) Ozzy (and the fans) wanted another 'Randy' and even though Jake did his best (and succeeded in my opinion), you just can't make everyone happy. Jake is a phenomenal player. His work with 'Badlands' is definitely worth more than the price of admission. Jake is among my 'Top 5' favourite guitarists. Ant
Elvish Posted August 18, 2004 Report Posted August 18, 2004 In this forum Blues music as a whole is underated, I believe. I agree with you one hundred percent, Windy.
XXX Posted August 18, 2004 Report Posted August 18, 2004 In this forum Blues music as a whole is underated, I believe. And from a woman's point of view- Janis Joplin in particular. She was much more of a blues artist than rock IMO, and Jimi's blues tend to be underated also. I know what you mean. Futurist music (Industrial, Noise, EBM, New Wave, New Romantic, SynthPop) is also under-represented here...

MuzikTyme Posted August 25, 2004 Report Posted August 25, 2004 I thought I'd dig this potato out of the Songfacts garden and mention a band that I'm very impressed with but never hear about. The following song by them, IMO, is nothing short of perfection. Progressive, tight and excellent harmony. Underrated is an understatement. If you've never heard of Seether, it would be to your benefit to check them out, soon. ~Fine Again~ It seems like every day?s the same and I?m left to discover on my own It seems like everything is gray and there?s no color to behold They say it?s over and I?m fine again, yeah Try to stay sober feels like I?m dying here And I am aware now of how everything?s gonna be fine one day Too late, I?m in hell I am prepared now, seems everyone?s gonna be fine One day too late, just as well I feel the dream in me expire and there?s no one left to blame it on I hear you label me a liar ?cause I can?t seem to get this through You say it?s over, I can sigh again, yeah Why try to stay sober when I?m dying here And I am aware now of how everything?s gonna be fine one day Too late, I?m in hell I am prepared now, seems everyone?s gonna be fine One day too late; just as well And I?m not scared now. I must assure you, you?re never gonna get away And I?m not scared now. And I?m not scared now. No? I am aware now of how everything?s gonna be fine one day Too late, I?m in hell I am prepared now seems everyone?s gonna be fine One day too late, just as well I am prepared now, seems everything?s gonna be fine for me For me; for myself. For me, for me, for myself For me, for me, for myself
scott Posted August 25, 2004 Report Posted August 25, 2004 Hey Muzik! I really like Seether too. They sound an awful lot like Nirvana though, but that's okay 'cuz they do a good job at it anyway. I picked up 'Disclaimer' the day that I heard Fine Again, it's an excellent song.
MuzikTyme Posted August 25, 2004 Report Posted August 25, 2004 :: Somehow I knew you'd mention that but like you said, they do a fine job. My thought is that Seether and Audioslave are the best "new" bands in the progressive market. Ole scott has good taste in music.
scott Posted August 25, 2004 Report Posted August 25, 2004 :: I suppose I'm just a *little* predictable, aren't I? Anyway Audioslave rocks! I'm gonna have to agree with you on the Seether and Audioslave, none of those pansy 'new rock' bands can touch 'em (hmmmm, should I pop in some Puddle Of Mudd or some Audioslave? Or, how about some 3 Doors Down or some Seether? Yeah, Seether and Audioslave could take any of 'em down)
Batman Posted August 25, 2004 Author Report Posted August 25, 2004 Yeah, Audioslave is the best today. The white stripes too, but I guess they should'nt be in an underated thread.
MuzikTyme Posted August 25, 2004 Report Posted August 25, 2004 Until Seether and Audioslave are on billboards, soup cans, slurpee cups and have an airport named after them then they will be considered underrated, by me at least. ::
Batman Posted August 26, 2004 Author Report Posted August 26, 2004 Until Seether and Audioslave are on billboards, soup cans, slurpee cups and have an airport named after them then they will be considered underrated, by me at least. :: Audioslave international airport has a nice ring to it
Jenny Posted August 27, 2004 Report Posted August 27, 2004 Audioslave international airport has a nice ring to it Or the 7-11 Seether Slurpee (say that 10 times fast)
Batman Posted January 6, 2006 Author Report Posted January 6, 2006 Looking through my old threads...how can anything be definitevely underrated? Ah well, here are the 6 most underrated Zeppelin tunes (if there is such a thing) 1. The Wanton Song 2. Hey Hey What Can I Do 3. Out on the Tiles 4. Celebration Day 5. Your Time is Gonna Come 6. Carouselambra
daslied Posted January 8, 2006 Report Posted January 8, 2006 "Your Time Is Gonna Come" - great choice. I'd like to add "Since I've Been Loving You."
usernameddr Posted January 8, 2006 Report Posted January 8, 2006 Thin Lizzie Harlequin Barenaked Ladies I don't if Paul Simon because I have never heard anything about him but that might just be me. And the most critized when he shouldn't be would be Billy Joel but I don't know if that would fit in here either.
Batman Posted January 8, 2006 Author Report Posted January 8, 2006 "Your Time Is Gonna Come" - great choice. I'd like to add "Since I've Been Loving You." Great song, but I don't consider it underrated. After all, it's on their greatest hits album
daslied Posted January 9, 2006 Report Posted January 9, 2006 That's a valid point. But you never seem to hear it mentioned with the radio staples - Stairway, Black Dog, Whole Lotta Love, etc. I think the whole of "Led Zeppelin III" is pretty underrated, with the exception of "Immigrant Song".
Sweet Jane 61 Posted January 13, 2006 Report Posted January 13, 2006 Zep's Traveling Riverside Blues and I Can't Quit You Baby....both great tunes
The Seeker Posted January 13, 2006 Report Posted January 13, 2006 Brian Jones Mike D'Abo Small Faces (as serious artists, not, you know, jokey ones)
