I feel like '80s SY is underrated, and '90s SY is overrated. Just my opinion, mind you. But I really really like Sonic Youth, so whatever.

Underrated (not in this place, probably, but in general):

Polvo
Swervedriver
Henry's Dress
Hopkirk & Lee
Bedhead

Who said Failure? 1 kudos.

I should propose something of my own, huh?

I'm going to call these bands underrated and see what happens: Jesus Lizard, Don Caballero, Hella, The Melvins, Local H

And in a shocking turn of events... I'm going to say the guy from the Gin Blossoms that wrote all their hits, got fired, and then killed himself. Underrated. Yes, really.

EARLY RADIOHEAD IS KIND OF GARBAGE.

KID A - HAIL TO THE THIEF ARE PRETTY SOLID ALBUMS.

THE NEW ALBUM IS KIND OF MEH.

I GIVE THEM KUDOS FOR BEING SOMEWHAT MAINSTREAM AND STILL MANAGING TO REMAIN FAIRLY "EXPERIMENTAL".

THEY'VE BEEN TOURING AGAIN.

I SAW THEM IN 2003 DURING THEIR "REUNION" TOUR AND LAST YEAR AT A LOCAL FESTIVAL (FOR FREE BECAUSE I DID ARTWORK FOR SAID FESTIVAL). BOTH SHOWS WERE PRETTY PHENOMENAL.

Oh yeah, I forgot this was a 90's thing. Actually I think everyone I listed was outside of the 90's in one direction or the other.

Also. PAVEMENT, YES, SOVERRATED.

Radiohead is a tough call. I love The Bends and OK Computer and as much hype and attention that Radiohead got in that period, they deserved every second of it. Of course, they didn't want the hype or attention, so they went on doing whatever they wanted, even if it didn't include ever sounding remotely like The Bends or OK Computer again.

also, discostu rules.
