SitarHero: 6 Underrated Post-Grunge Albums

whatsacow 12.19.11	Atomship is brilliant, but I wouldn't call it post grunge. Mothra definitely isn't. Great list however.
BigHans 12.19.11	I have 1-5. Tantric was my jam for awhile back in the day. ALL YOU STUPID FUCKERS WALK AROUND ASTOUNDED, AND DROWNIN
SitarHero 12.19.11	BigHans, you are the MAN! Tantric's inclusion in this list was ALMOST entirely due to "Astounded". Possibly the best post-grunge song evaaarrr. Whatsacow, I kind of agree about Atomship not being post-grunge, but they have the same sort of sludgy aesthetic that most of the bands in the genre use. They just did more cool stuff with it than anyone else.
Gmork89 12.19.11	Good list. Needs My Own Prison.
SitarHero 12.19.11	Sorry Gmork89, I honestly think Creed are overrated and overly derivative. Tantric almost got left off the list for the same reasons, but Whitener's guitar-playing (while technically inferior to Mark Tremonti's) and harmonization sets them apart.
AsoTamaki 12.19.11	2-4 are amazing. Tantric is weak though. First two Creed albums are excellent, man. They don't get credit from people just because they had a few mega-hits. Cold - 13 Ways to Bleed on Stage Toadies - Hell Below/Stars Above
BigHans 12.19.11	BigHans, you are the MAN! ^ this is well known but thanks bro
iambandersnatch 12.19.11	well-written, agree w/ most of this
cb123 12.19.11	6 is an absolute beast....but not post-grunge
greg84 12.19.11	1 is one of my favorite albums of all time, but it's not grunge or post-grunge. The same goes with 6...
MasBarHigeuoris21 12.20.11	Atomship is brilliant, but I wouldn't call it post grunge [2]
MasBarHigeuoris21 12.20.11	If you think Bogey Depot is bad, you should hear Degredation Trip Vol. 1 & 2. Jerry Cantrell is truly underrated.
Cipieron 12.20.11	i completely agree with what you wrote for 3 and 5
SitarHero 12.20.11	Ha! As I qualified for albums 1 and 6, they're not grunge/post-grunge bands or albums per se, but they're definitely "grungy", IMO.
Gmork89 12.21.11	"Sorry Gmork89, I honestly think Creed are overrated" Creed are overrated by people who know nothing about music, and severely underrated by people who do.
KILL 12.21.11	LMFAO
Gmork89 12.21.11	You know it's true KILL m/
KILL 12.21.11	agreed
Gmork89 12.21.11	I'm trying to think of a way to clarify because I pretty much just accused myself of knowing nothing about music.
SitarHero 12.27.11	LMAO! What the heck just happened?! scratches head
SitarHero 12.27.11	My best guess Gmork89 is that you were trying to say that Creed is unfairly underrated, probably based on their popularity. That's fair I guess. I just don't think they were near good enough to merit as much attention .
Gmork89 12.27.11	Yes that is what I was saying haha, and I agree with you. I just meant people who only care about the top 40 think they are the greatest thing in the world (which they are not). And people who like a lot of different music and are usually fair think they are the worst band in the world (which they are not).
Cipieron 12.27.11	just threw on 5 last night. still love that album
ohfoxxxycole 12.27.11	props on 3 also props to aso for choosing that particular toadies album
SitarHero 12.27.11	Yeah, and it doesn't help that Alter Bridge might be a better band/more musician-approved. Tantric is the shizz as long as you don't notice that they're playing the same song over and over. They're kinda like the DragonForce of grunge. :D
Gmork89 12.27.11	Ya AB is better in a lot of areas, and they get decent respect. And I actually listen to Tantric quite often, they are definitely better than average.
Cipieron 12.27.11	"Tantric is the shizz as long as you don't notice that they're playing the same song over and over. They're kinda like the DragonForce of grunge. :D" Haha yeah, there are two songs on the s/t album that start with the exact same strumming/pattern.. it's a little embarassing. I only have their first 2 albums, are the other two worth getting? When they added the violin player I was a little skeptic
SitarHero 12.27.11	Nope, it really isn't. They're practically Hugo Ferrera solo albums and are mostly crap. Even the distinctive T
SitarHero 12.27.11	[cont]...Tantric sound is missing.
Rsetness9 08.24.12	4 and 5 are not underrated they are just not good...
Cipieron 08.24.12	4 and 5 are amazing, you are just a fuck face
iambandersnatch 08.24.12	Props for STP. They've never had a great record (and no, Core is not a great record) but if you look at all their songs throughout the discog they've had quite a few interesting/good songs. Silvergun Superman, Atlanta, Lady Picture Show are just a few that come to mind.. even Shangri-La-Dee-Da had a few pretty cool songs despite getting shitty ratings/reviews. Haven't heard their s/t yet. and ofc props for jerry cantrell/atomship/days of the cock
SitarHero 08.24.12	@Rsetness9 I think they have quite distinctive sounds, which is saying something in the super-oversaturated post-grunge market. @iambandersnatch Exactly. Great singles, iffy records.
