Most underrated bands ever?

They are underrated as a speed metal band. And rightly so. They don't do any...

I have not read through the entire 51 pages so this could have already been mentioned.

-Blind Melon - they do get radio play with there single "No Rain" but oh, they are so much better. Beautiful lyrics sung by a beautiful voice with musicians behind him who can really play and do play there asses off. Its too bad about what happened to Shannon.

I see Blind Melon mentioned in every underrated thread... but I've yet to hear them.

i know it's me talking right now, but i don't think Clutch gets as much recognition as they should. i mean, they have about 16 albums full of material as well as unreleased stuff. i really think that while they do stay in kind of the stoner/hard/blues rock kind of spectrum, they still have their own kind of sound and style as well as the kind of music where they don't follow trends and do their own thing.

plus i think Neil Fallon is a brilliant lyricist, and Tim Sult/Dan Maines have a talent for being able to make alot out of a little(most of their songs using the pentatonic scale is what i mean), as well as JP Gaster being a powerful and jazzy drummer.

-best quality i could find on youtube

idk, thanks if you listened

The only Blind Melon song I have heard is 'No Rain' but despite it being one of those overplayed singles I still really, really love it. Maybe I should check them out in more detail.

Oh man, you need to.

From what I have heard No Rain isn't all that representative of Blind Melon's sound at large... I guess with that in mind I should check out more of their stuff!

Well the lyrics are typical of any Blind Melon songs but the song doesn't really resemble Blind Melon at all.

My favorite Blind Melon song is "Mouthful of Cavities". Check it out and let me know what you think.

Sure! I'll get back to ya with my thoughts!
