Under-rated Albums

[binnie]

Ok guys had an idea.

How about a threadf where we list those little gems that only we know about, you know bands/ albums that you really dig but no-one else has heard of or gives a shit about.

Here are some off the top of my head:

The Almighty "Crank"

Refused "The Shape of Punk to Come"

Skid Row "Subhuman Race" (not a great record for this band, but killer nonetheless. Sometimes band go out of what you expect from them but still make a good record)

Crowbar "Odd Fellows Rest" (IMO their strongest record)

1st Vain record

Ted Nugent "Free for All"

Love/Hate "Blackout" (This is a forgotten gem)

Salty Dog "Salty Dog"

Badlands "Badlands"


Anyone else got some hidden classics?

AC/DC Powerage is the most underrated album ever. A great bluesinspired rock n roll album that is always overseen compared to HIghway To Hell and Back in Black.

Absolutely my friend,

Powerage is my fav AC/DC album, always has been.

"Up to my neck in you" is amazing.

Bon Scot's finest hour

[binnie]

Anything by Corrosion of Conformity is underated, awseome band!

[Shaun Ponsonby]

Just about every UFO album
Good call on "Powerage"
"Queen II"
"Hearts of Stone" and "Better Days" by Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes (see sig)
Pre-1987 Whitesnake
The Best of Rolf Harris

[ULTRAMAN VH]

Loudness-Thunder In The East

[m_dixon1984]

My usual addition: Pride And Glory, a most excellent Zakk Wylde project/album. Book Of Shadows by Zakk is also very good.

The Tea Party, from Canada, has a number of good albums but Edges Of Twilight would be the one I recommend most.

Love Powerage and agree that it's underated.

'yep that Pride & Glory album is killer, saw 'em at Donnigton way back when, (94 I think) and Zakk was amazing, one of the best players I've ever seen.

good call on UFO
