In your opinion, who is the most underrated, underappreciated artist of all time?
In my opinion The Velvet Underground never got the success they deserved as they came out in a period of time where The Beatles were singing about love, friendship and to some extent a yellow submarine, The Velvet Underground, on the other hand, sang about prostitution and drug use, truly amazing band who never got appreciated in the 60's due to this!
Rajaton! They're a Finnish a cappella group that my choir sang with last year. They write their own songs and they do covers of songs like Lady Madonna.
I'm sure I know of alot. Right now, I can only think of A-Ha, an american 80's music group. They only scored one #1 hit (Take On Me), while most of their other songs are almost on par with the amount of emotion that 'Take On Me' has, while no other song even became top 10 hits. Total under appreciation.
I'll name more artists in comments when I remember some.

Yay someone actually has heard of them! But I thought they were Norwegian.
I don't know about ALL time, but I think 'Brand New' is an underrated band. :/ It's one of my favourites, and I don't think it gets the appreciation it deserves.
Well I know a lot of them, but I particularily like Indica.
They're an all-girl band from Finland and their music is something like alternative, pop-rock, gothic and some classical music mixed together. They sing in English and Finnish.
They sound amazing in my opinion.
They've released five albums for now, hope they make more, my favorite song from them is Islands of Light.
I hope they become more popular, and if not, no matter I'll still love them. ^^
okay, i know that loads of people are probably going to argue me on this, but i think that Ariana Grande and Elizabeth Gillies are majorly underappreciated for thier music. and,for that matter, thier acting also. they both have insanely beautiful voices and are amazing actresses but are constantly being shadowed by Victoria Justice, who, honestly, is hardly talented at all. Ari and Liz are outstandingly talented. they really do not get nearly enough props for their work.
