I don't think that is an unpopular opinion.
I think Steve Albini might be misunderstood. He seems like he is just sort of a fiery guy who doesn't take shit from anyone.
Anyways, I'll do the underrated overrated thing.
Underrated bands-
Jesus and Mary Chain
Slint
Happy Go Licky
Rites of Spring
Post VU John Cale
Suicide
Prince
PJ Harvey
Kool Keith/Dr. Octagon
Gary Wilson
Squeeze
Gary Numan/Tubeway Army
Todd Rundgren
Gang of Four
The Cramps
Beat Happening
Overrated bands-
AC-DC
Rolling Stones
Bob Dylan
The Smiths
Yo La fucking Tengo
Post-VU Lou Reed
The Flaming Lips
Dinosaur Jr. (I like them, but I don't think they are spectacular)
Some album comparisons
Bowie's best two albums are Diamond Dogs and Station to Station, not Hunky fucking Dory and Ziggy Stardust as popular opinion states.
Pixie's best album is Trompe Le Monde
