I won't post regarding every band as I am not a big fan of some and is there really an underrated Beatles album in terms of popularity for one aspect of their sound or other?

Pink Floyd, I will comment on though and their most underrated album is Obscured By Clouds. Recorded in just a few weeks (not the norm for them) but chock full of some great tracks: the title track, Childhood's End, Free Four etc. It's better than DSOTM and The Wall IMO by far. Far more organic.

Genesis. I think Foxtrot is nothing short of a masterpiece and it is by far my favourite Peter Gabriel era album and most of their PG output actually leaves me bored but for underrated the S/T takes it for me. Mama and Home By The Sea (both parts) are classic tracks and fuse the 70's predilection for tempo changes with the advancement of electronic recording really well.
