| Overlooked, Underrated, and Underappreciated Pt. 2
Part 2 of my dive into obscure alternative music that mostly originates from the 90's | 1 | | Teenage Fanclub Bandwagonesque
Apparently this album is Ben Gibbard's favorite album of all time? | 2 | | Grandaddy Under the Western Freeway | 3 | | The High Llamas Hawaii
These guys are criminally ignored on this website. More beach boys worship but i love every overblown second. | 4 | | Super Furry Animals Fuzzy Logic
Fuzzy, scuzzy, filthy power pop. | 5 | | The Flaming Lips The Soft Bulletin
So...these guys are actually good? Who'da thunk. | 6 | | Ludo You're Awful, I Love You
Not 90's, but criminally underrated nonetheless. Catchy, morbid, and bleeding with moog synthezisers and melodica, I am all over this. | 7 | | Tindersticks Curtains
Sad and pitiful. I like it. | 8 | | Elvis Costello This Year's Model
Not 90's. Like the cars, but cooler. | |

04.25.18 | 5 is essential. Though I'm not sure they are Overlooked/Underrated/Underappreciated. | JustJoe.
04.25.18 | * Trashcan Sinatras -- "Cake" | Casavir
04.25.18 | Yeah, Flaming Lips have a lot of acclaim. | TheSpaceMan
04.25.18 | 5 is amaze but not underatted at all | TheSpaceMan
04.25.18 | edit: oh my bad .... *[3] | cheapcrayon
04.25.18 | no way anything by elvis costello or the flaming lips could really be that underrated | theNateman
04.25.18 | I know literally no one who even knows who either of them are. I assumed they were underrated because I've heard so little about them. Here too. Not a lot of convo on either. | solisoc
04.25.18 | High Llamas are great. Best song is Checking In, Checking Out | zakalwe
04.25.18 | 1 was big
2 was under the radar big
3 was underground big
4 was big
5 was bloody big
6. Never heard of it
7 was critically big (album is one of the best ever)
8 was massive
Nice list though. | Sharkattack
04.25.18 | I low key hate 5 but cool list! | jagride
04.25.18 | list got me light headed
strapping myself into a diving bell for part 3 | Demon of the Fall
04.25.18 | Yeah, I don't know where you're getting this info from but most of these were big/very big. Essentially if an artist gets attention from mainstream press & has the attention of the average music fan (who doesn't frequent music websites daily) then they're big.
I do find the number of ratings on Sput weirdly disproportionate in a lot of cases, so don't pay attention to that. |
