Most Underrated Bands Ever?

I mean underrated in spite of their quality music.
(maybe u know them, but they surely havent got that attention they deserved)

1. Killradio (Even if Scavenger became a hit - they are politicaly not correct)
Scavenger ; Do You Know?
2. Air Traffic (donno why, coz their only album is one of the best)
Charlotte ; Shooting Star
3. Idlewild (great lyrics/music, donno why)
You Held The World In Your Arms ; No Emotion

Whats you top3? (plz avoid posting your top3 goth-metal bands, thanks)

Help Plz: How much is the time latency between the real match and the ETTV coverage (usually)?

His voice live is just great
Parent
too bad I missed his performance, I like his version :)
Parent
plz, overrated as fck... alsk die gast nog 1 noot hoor zinge, verhuis ik naar het buitenland
Parent
Duidelijk niet echt muzikaal aangelegd om te horen da die gast wel degelijk een zalige stem heeft.
Parent
zo zijn der me hopen he! Die zen "hits" zijn gewoon enorm overhyped en overplayed. Het mogen dan wel degelijke nummers zijn, tbegint op gezaag te lijken om da elke post elken dag wel een paar keer een lieke van em draait :p
Parent
United States of America Release
Belgium Think It Through
The Pigeon Detectives imo
they r not underrated imo...
Parent
Stars
Fisherspooner
Clueso (Ger)
stars and fischerspooner are not underrated at all

for example, fischerspooner has 223,762 listeners at last.fm
Parent
Still not raising media attention imo. That's where perceptions of words differ :)
Parent
but bands could become worse, if they get more media attention so care:)
Parent
Not necessarily :)
Parent
but possibly <- does this wird exist? think so

Netherlands God Dethroned
Sweden The Duskfall
Germany Machinemade God

"underrated" is relative, i took titles, which are scrobbled less than 400.000 times @last.fm as underrated.
(this is no goth metal!)

nice random pic btw!
well killradio with his 187.000 despite of having Scavenger (NFS Underground 2 OST) is pretty underrated :P
Parent
if they're good (except for 1 good song @NFS, like it is often the case with NFS/FIFA/... bands) then i agree :p
Parent
i like their album pretty much :P
Parent
What the... most of the bands I have in my TOP50 have less than 50000 scrobles -.-
Parent
What the... :p
Parent
What the hook at 400.000 plays! And does unpopular mean underrated?!
Parent
haha that shit is great
Parent
I know them and I don't even listen to that kind of music :D
the strange flowers - 70 listeners at last.fm
echospace - 1200 listeners at last.fm (40 when i bought album)
Kamelot -> despite the name :P
lol kamelot are NOT underrated.
Parent
well, they are known in the metal scene. But there are so many people I know who don't listen to metal but liked them when I showed them their DVD.
Parent
they are not underrated in the metal scene, nor to people who dont listen to rock/metal.(hell even my sister worships them and she listens to rnb/hiphop/electro)
Parent
I wish it was like that where I live... but sadly if you ask a random on the street about metal here, they will answer you something between Rammstein and satanists.

Parent
ye i made the journal about them :)
they are friends of mine and i think they would love it if their music is played on events like that.
but dont forget to mention them when playing it, or else it wont have any effect on their "popularity" :P

if you could upload a video of it, it would be awsome!
