Most underated albums of all time

Stay Hungry - Twisted Sister

"You're an SMF"

Public Enemy - "Fear of a Black Planet"
1990

Fresh Today by Fresh
early 70s band who disappeared without trace

Slint-Spiderland and Tweez
Shellac-Dude Incredible
My BloodyValentine-Loveless
The Birthday Party-Prayers on Fire
The Dead Milkmen-Best Of
Modest Mouse-Build something out of Nothing and Antarctica and the Moon.


Mind you these were not always under-rated and some critics rate them very high now. But if you are referring to the general public then yes. Very underrated .

Harp Attack and Harp Attack 2 by the harp twins. These 2 are not just eye candy. Their CD's are very good!

An album that should be better known. Remarkable what can be done with a solo cello with a bit of humor as well. Recorded without processing.

I think almost anything released by Devin Townsend is underrated.

Who's Devin Townsend, you ask?

Precisely.

MBV is OVERrated, not underrated. Severely overrated.

I am a big fan of Mr. Townsend's Infinity and Physicist albums. Saw him live once with Strapping Young Lad. Good stuff.

Nice playing, a little bit corny in their antics😉

I think ol' Sheeds came up with some guitar lines that were fairly unique ...
