Now, Gomez - have they aged well or have I just got into the weekend blues warrior phase of waiting to die?
The Coral, anyone?

The Coral...oh jeez, I remember when every music press outlet was calling them the next big thing, and I was wondering what they were hearing and I wasn't...then it seemed everyone agreed with me.
Other not-so next big things (judge for yourself how "underrated" they were)
Abandoned Pools
Kinesis
Head Automatica
Leisureworld (maybe not a "next big thing" per se, but I remember Music Choice's Alternative Rock channel played this a ton in 2002/2003...and bad as it it may be, I kinda wish I had written this song, if only for the riff)
The Music
Dirty Vegas
Dragpipe (somewhat NSFW)
Vaux
Pepper (note: many of you will NOT like this)
The Secret Machines
The Vines (yeah, I know they're still around, but to the average music listener they belong in the "remember them"/"where are they now" file)
Kasabian (sorry UK boardies)
Fischerspooner
I saw this thread earlier...just didn't reply 'til now.
