Arms & Sleepers! So unbelievably talented.

Balmorhea as well. They're incredible!

Oh and it's only a duo BTW. They just don't have enough hands on their bodies to play all the instruments at once.

The Moody Blues are definitely underrated, they did some great songs and had several good songwriters who brought some variety to their music too.

Godz (the New York band from the 60's) seems to be a bit underrated come to think of it... Great experimental/garage rock band that's just ****ing weird (listen to "White Cat Heat").

Another option for most underrated: John Waite
