Kyuss wasn't bad. QOTSA ain't too bad either

Venom sucked in my opinion, exept for Countess Bathory.

I wasn't really into the Possessed either, but thought that Larry Lalonde and Les Claypool were pretty good in Primus.

QOTSA came first in JJJ's Hottest 100 poll about 2-3 years ago with No One Knows. The poll is the biggest of its kind in the world and gets about 450,000 voters. They had like 5 songs on the list, so I'm pretty sure they're appreciated here in Oz at least.

Grant Lee Buffalo. Very underrated 90s band. See: Grace - Grant Lee Buffalo fan site

Weezer don't as much credit as they deserve either IMHO, although they have had a fair bit of commercial success - just not enough!

Yeah Weezer are a great band. There are heaps of great Australian bands that deserve lots of success, but seem to be restricted mostly by their nationality. Too many to list here.

I think Gary Numan and The human League have been under rated and viewed in the wrong light.

QOTSA are not underrated, nor was Primus, I was merely pointing out that members of both of these bands were in KYUSS and the Possessed, respectively before they went on to fame later on. Thanks for allowing me to clarify.
