Most underrated/obscure/criminally overlooked band you can imagine...

[Mr. Dictator]

hmm?

i'd have to say...

King's X
Wire
Shellac
Nirvana

(guess which one's the joke )

basically, who should have been renowned but wasnt.

 

[Jawz II]

nirvana might not be that great a musicians, but they did change the rock n roll scene and they did rid the world of that crappy hair metal thing. god bless Kurt for that.

also what they lacked in skill i think they made up with sheer intensity and great lyrics. but thats just me.

If your band needs exposure, there's nothing better you can do than top yourself/die of an overdose/tragic accident.
