| The Lightning Seeds. Some very good tunes away from the commercial stuff, and Ian Broudie was a great songwriter!

I liked Great White.

spot on on both counts! Been a big fan since my introduction to the scene.
Always felt that they were up their with the big guns in the genre but have never quite got the recognition they deserve.

The first live band I ever saw as they supported Guns N'Roses at Milton Keynes in 93 along with a band called Soul Asylum.
Sadly Shannon Hoon passed away in 95.

They were good, John Power can write a tune.
Caught them supporting Weezer many moons ago and John has been involved in the Justice Campaign post Cast.

| Cast are only second to Blur of the 90s Brit Pop bands for me. Oasis wrote the anthems but Blur and Cast wrote truly great Brit Pop songs.
Underrated bands in my collection would be
Royworld
Prefab Sprout
Talk Talk
Kings of Convenience

| Never thought The Coral got the acclaim they deserved although some may disagree given their brief mainstream popularity. A few different members of the band are off doing their own things now and all are impressing my ears, hopefully they will get together again in future.

Not to everyone's tastes but I love all that J.G. Ballard inspired industrial post-punk electro. Cabaret Voltaire, The Normal, Fad Gadget, Throbbing Gristle, John Foxx and early Human League is all well worth a listen.
For a modern take on it there's a Polish synth guru who goes by the name WC Olo Garb. His Youtube page is under the name of Jexus. Dirty electro synth with arresting imagery and visuals. Lovely stuff.

| Quote ="Charlie Sheen"Sepultuta'"
I assume you mean Sepultura? I don't recall them being underrated - I was into that scene at the time and they were easily one of the biggest thrash metal bands in the world; always a relatively niche market I guess, in that they were never going to be on ToTP, but certainly massive in their own market.
I saw them at Nottingham Rock City on the Arise tour in, I think, 1991 - it was one of the scariest experiences of my then young life.
