Underrated Bands

[EFC David]

I don't think so. Amazing singles band. Never made an album that gets near that first Roses one, and in fact, they pretty owe their success to the Stone Roses.

The Stones Roses album is a timeless classic. The Charlatans made some truly boss sing a long anthems, were one of the main figures in the Madchester scene yet ask a 20 something who they are and you very may well get a blank look.

Best modern day English group even though i don't think they have any plans to ever record again

 

[Hellerad]

The Sword if you have a sense of humor.

I agree, im baffled that all my mates have never heard of them yet spend all their time going on about the wonderfulness of oasis!

Anyway, Miles Kane is pretty underrated too imo
