I think Alice in Chains are very underrated. I hear so much emotion whenever I listen to them. Especially Layne Staley's voice. Its Haunting. They're just an overall amazing band. May Layne Staley R.I.P.. I dont think they should have got back together. Its just not going to be the same without layne staley. What are some bands that you think are underrated?

...But seriously, Animal Collective should get more attention than they do. Sure, they've got a nice cult fan base, but I really think more people should know them better after being around for like 10 years.
I'd say Scorpions. Although they had their share of success they were always overshadowed by other bands of their genre and they were never really appreciated musically. I think....
Anything that is not known by the mainstream crowd. I mean the bands that are still trying to slide past each day by making there band big. The local bands and such.
basically any good Metal band. There are few metal bands that are amazing AND in the mainstream. but then again, mainstream tends to kill the music, so it's better off that way.

I was just going to say that metal usually doesn't go hand in hand with radio. An even when it does it tends to be some of the softer pieces (they can still be loud just not too much) from metal bands.

Yeah, I think the heaviest I've heard on the radio is a song from old Metallica. but even that is rare, it's usually their Black album and forward songs that are played on the radio (and that supports the radio not playing good metal songs haha). I doubt we'll ever hear Bloodbath, Cynic, or Exodus on the radio, but that's part of what makes Metal unique. The fans are really dedicated to it because of the music, not because it's popular.

How can a band be underrated if no one has heard of it?

Animal Collective are huge now. They've already sold out a decent size venue in Detroit, and the show isn't until may. You can't find a music criticism outlet that isn't going to say that the new record is the best thing that's going to happen all year. Not underrated at all.
