Sup Forums I want to broaden my music horizons, so hit this thread up with some artists that you really like that you think are underrated, hit a link up with a sick performance or song and I'll give it a listen. Try to make these artist current. I have nothing against older music, but I'm interested in artists that I can watch evolve as musicians and potentially see in show.
I'll start

here's another just for the sake of it, mixings pretty bad, but the energy is good
some good ol stoned jesus
Mix of old and new
Hello Skinny/Constantinople by Primus. Been around forever, probably more popular than I think. Those two songs are covers of 70s songs by The Residents.
disturbed sucked in the 90s and they suck now
hell yeah brother, primus is sick. They're pretty big where I live, a lotta moms seem to like them
Anything from VNV Nation.
This is a masterpiece
The music is cool, the singer sounds like a dying cat though
65DaysofStatic, and Sleepytime Gorilla Museum. Death Grips if you feel really experimental.
Personal fav, definitely need to be eased into this type of music if you're not used to it though. I remember I used to hate the vocalists voice, but it's definitely my favourite band atm.

john dwyer is a savage
Best live performer you'll ever see
youtube.com
One of the best written songs I've ever. True musicianship from these guys.
I've ever heard+
neato, saved
very tight
>underrated
>chance
I like chance but c'mon
hella gay
his last two albums are very raw. they're basically the same. Ruminations is an album with just guitar, piano and harmonica he recorded as a demo for Nonesuch records and they said it was perfect to release that way. A few months after, he recorded Salutations, which is the same album (plus 7 other songs) recorded with The Felice Brothers as his backing band and legendary drummer Jim Keltner (Dylan, Presley, Harrison, Lennon, Bowie among many others) on the drums
oh shit dat boi fucking goes in
I just assumed like a lot of Sup Forums OP avoided rap
this is high key the worst thing i've ever heard but other than that it's alright
well i'm glad you posted it, I'm going to be listening to him from now on
nah dogg, OP is about his hip hop, be FW that new badass, kendrick and murs especially
Falconer is power/folk metal band formed in 1999. their last album was in 2014, so still pretty new. Although, they won't be doing live shows anymore, just sticking to studio. Here's one of my favorites from the self named album "falconer." Hope someone enjoys it.
not bad, only marginally into metal myself, mostly just stoner, pyschedelic and garage metal, what would you even call this genre, prog?
I was going to judge this as garbage, but it wasn't bad. Too bad a lot of these aging guys aren't playing shows anymore
Jellyfish is extremely underrated, an eccentric power pop/rock band in the early 90s. Very dramatic and inspired by Queen and The Beatles.
youtube.com
Pixies aren't necessarily 'underrated' but compared to the bands they inspired (Nirvana being one of them) they deserve more love
youtube.com
I will say that the beginning part of the song is pretty weak. If you want a more consistent song, maybe try "Clarion Call." yeah, it's a shame they won't be preforming anymore.
These guys don't exactly release bangers, and their first album is by faaaaaaaar their best
But they're really good for a nice chilled out day, out on the deck with a beer in hand
Thank you for posting this. It's one of the best records I've ever listened to. Really hope these guys stick around.
Here's a few:

I should probably stop now.
The band refers to themselves as "cinematic rock", but yeah, prog works. Or post-rock, whatever.
This will hit a lot of Sup Forums hearth strong song

Bretty gud song. Lyrics are pretty shit though.
>a few
I like music, mang.
I do too but holy shit you don't just post a literal wall of links like that man
I just did, though.
Lorn, the best thing in music right now.
youtube.com
There are a few artists you can say sound like Lorn (Dolor is really the only one I have heard having a similar approach and sound), but you can't say Lorn sounds like another artist.
Here's a cover of a Cat Stevens song

Here's a classical guitar version of Claude Debussy's Rêverie

Opeth. Faith in Others, Burden, Harlequin Forest (they were more metal back then) if you do like metal as well, I'd recommend the entire album Ghost Reveries. By Opeth.
I love the band, and I'm glad this got them some exposure. I'll always prefer their real rocking stuff though.
They released their first album in 2000. They helped kick off nu metal as a genre.
>Opeth
>underrated
pridjevi
dead meadow
moon duo
i love ty as well
Have met exactly one person in real life who listens to metal and has heard about and actually listened to Opeth.
Disturbed was second wave, Korn, Deftones, Slipknot and Limp Bizkit hit the mainstream in the late 90's.
I know that's what Wikipedia says, but I never think of Deftones or Slipknot as "nu metal." Korn and Limp Bizkit for sure though.
OP here, not gonna claim that i'llmake it through this, but thanks, there are some solid suggestions on here
they started playing in the 90s tho.
they sucked before they released any albums, they sucked after they released their first album and they suck now. nu metal is a fucking pox on an otherwise prolific genre
Point still stands though, Disturbed in no way helped kick off anything.
Oh and if Disturbed is nu metal, then Slipknot and Deftones are as well, nu metal is a really vague term which basically means "pop metal from the late 90's and early 2000's".
Get out of here with your pointless holier than thou nonsense about metal sub genres. Nu metal doesn't take anything away from bands like Sabbath or Maiden.
If you ain't listening to this, you ain't listening to shit.
You're doing the same thing. Take the plank out of your own eye first.
He can't possibly have fit a whole plank in his eye.
What the fuck are you even talking about?
well it ruined the future of metal in the mainstream for sure
Empirically false. I can post another wall like if you really want me to, but I'd check out the metal in there first.
Disagree. I think metal in the mainstream was dead long before that. But I also don't think metal needs to be mainstream to be successful.
I fail to see how any of that music is mainstream. Good, yes. But not mainstream.

Check out Karnivool. Some of the most talented musicians in the rock genre making music today.

What's your definition of "mainstream"? Radio play? Over a million views on Youtube? Available on Pandora or Spotify? Every one of those bands I've posted, metal and otherwise, have gained a bunch of traction this past year. It's because their being shared and discussed by people who are enthusiastic about the present, and future, state of music. That's what dictates what's mainstream and what's not, despite how good it feels to see these things through a more cynical, conspiratorial scope.
I tend to like a lot of underground acts, and don't really listen to much hyped up shit other than mac demarco, and a few semi decent rappers like kendrick and chance, but there is an appeal to having your music be mainstream. Point in case, when the chili peppers went all wierd goth metally for one hot minute. That shit was tite
Oh hell yeah, these guys too.
having a small legion of internet followers does not indicate mainstream success. Its being part of and cultivating a music scene that influences lots of artists and is part of a bigger picture.
That's what all of those artists I posted are doing.
It always starts with a small legion of followers.
How about radio play on a station that isn't exclusively metal/hard rock? Getting on Pandora or Spotify isn't challenging at all. My friend from high school is on both of those, and his music blows. And there are probably a billion YT videos with a million views. It's gotta be at least 10 million to be mainstream. Probably more.
look, I'm not hating on those artists, I think that they're very decent, but I wouldn't consider any of them to be mainstream at all. That's not a bad thing though, the underground is where true talent usually dwells
You're joking, right? I've heard of exactly one of those bands (Xanthochroid), and only because one of my best friends is into really obscure metal.

Comments/following is cancerous but I have shown this to several friends who are by no means electronic music listeners and they have all approved.
Alright, I concede. They're not mainstream, I've just seen many of these bands explode in popularity through streaming services over the past year and that makes me very happy. I'm optimistic about where these guys will go and how they'll shape the medium, even if they do go down the route of countless other bands and eventually lose their capacity for song writing/playing. Their discography will still be out there, and young musicians will still take note.
youtube.com
one of my favorite bands they´re from gemany and not very old;) I think that they are very underrated so please check them out:)
Hiphop: try kenny arkana , vinie paz , immortal technique and finally tech9, they are all completely different so give them a shot .
Metal: van canto is a metal acapella group they are awesome unique and are worth a shot.
Try listening to electro swing just type electro swing mix and click anything if you want something more specific listen to chinese man or this youtu.be

Keaton Henson is one of my favorite musicians of all time. Last year I found him on one of these threads, thought it'd only be fair to share him with the rest of you. He's helped me through a lot, hope it helps you as well.
