most underrated/underappreciated artists

[estranged4life]

King's X-How this band is not the biggest band in the world is a mystery to me...25 years and they have never gave in when other bands could have called it a day. Maybe they truly are too intelligent for the fickle American music consumer.

Thin Lizzy-Obviously there is more to Thin Lizzy than just "The Boys are Back in Town". Glad to see they will again grace the US this summer!

Evergrey-Just because they are from Gothenburg doesnt mean they have to play death/black metal. A great dark melodic metal band with intelligence.

Nevermore-The best pure metal band in the US. How this band has only sold 30,000 of their latest release "This Godless Endeavor" is mindbogglin'. They have more talent than nearly any of the emo-sounding garbage vocal bands (ie-Trivium) that EmptyVee 2 hypes weekly (Or is it weakly) on "Headbanger's Ball".
