Who are you to wave your finger? You must have been outta your head.



ETA: guess I'll play too:

1. Incubus
2. N MS Allstars
3. Silverchair
4. Collective Soul
5. John Mayer (I know he's popular, but he's one of the best blues guitarists on the planet right now, and a lot of people just think all he's capable of is singing songs chicks like)
6. I'll agree with TOOL as well. They are their own worst enemy when it comes to publicity though.

Some people are just making this into a "Bands no one has ever heard of" thread.

"INXS"

Good call. They had hits but listening to their stuff now you appreciate just how talented they were.

For that matter, these famous and lesser known 80s bands could be considered underrated imho...

Tears for Fears
Oingo Boingo
Simple Minds

You've never heard of those bands?

I understand Langhorne slim but the rest are at least semi well known

I could never get into WSP. I guess I moved away from Selma when I was too young
