<p>I've never heard of any of the other three, so to be fair, I will omit listing a choice for fifth place. </p>

<p>King's X - wasn't on my list & I haven't heard a lot of their work, but what I have hard is very good! I have no problem with them at the top spot. I think they are very worthy!</p>
<p>Aldo Nova - My number one pick, the guy's an extremely talented guitarist & singer. He has a very solid catalog, a lot of great music, though he's basically only known for his breakthrough hit, "Fantasy". </p>

<p>Vandenberg - Number three on my list. I really, like this band & I think Adrian Vandenberg is a very underrated guitarist. They had the talent & great songs. I aleays thought they should have been a lot bigger.</p>

<p>Alright everyone, voting is now over. I had a lot of fun with this one because there is great debate on what underrated truly means. Before I give the official totals, I think most of us are in agreeance that: Thin Lizzy, Nazareth, and UFO are all underrated bands that deserved more popularity than they received. After much discussion, I think we all acknowledge they did have a decent, albeit too short of a run of success and all have a few songs that still are in regular rotation on classic…</p>
<p>Alright everyone, voting is now over. I had a lot of fun with this one because there is great debate on what underrated truly means.

After much discussion, I think we all acknowledge they did have a decent, albeit too short of a run of success and all have a few songs that still are in regular rotation on classic rock radio.They are no doubt underrated, but perhaps not VASTLY underrated.</p>
<p>Now our Top 5 List of Most Underrated Bands. Please note that very few people had matching lists and there was no clear cut winner. Here is the point system I used. 10 Points-1st, 8 Points-2nd Place, 6 Points-3rd Place, 4-Fourth Place, 5-2 Points</p>
<p>And the winner is:</p>

<p>I really like the Midnight Oil pick! Very good Australian band, like them a lot! Had the hit "Beds Are Burning" & later "Blue Sky Mine". Other than that, I think they're relatively obscure to the mainstream, but their work is great!!! I listen to it a lot! Considering, making room for them on my list. Hmmmm............</p>

<p>Alright everyone I am going to start tabulating on Monday of next week and then the voting will offically stop on Tuesday. We have had some great discussion and some good debate on what qualifies and what doesn't, which makes a statement on what underrated really means. There are a few bands that have been showing up regularly but most of our lists are all over the place which is great. If anyone wants to make a revision or resubmit this weekend go for it.</p>

<p>You know, that Vincent Furnier would have been funny. To me at least, I would have recognized the name and been punding my head trying to figure out where I heard it before.</p>

<p>Then I would have googled it and you would have been busted. Ha!</p>

<p>I still think they should have released "No Escape" as a single, instead of 'Love You Forever". I think it would have had a lot more appeal!</p>

<p>Silk and Steel is clearly the weaker of the two. I really felt like Silk and Steel was too ballad heavy and was disappointed because the rockers on the debut were so good. I like Silk and Steel don't get me wrong, but thought they really missed their target audience with it.</p>
