Ever hear of... Dinosaur Jr, Sebadoh,
NIRVANA?!?!, any other bands that STARTED THE ALTERNATIVE MUSIC GENRE? Yeah.
Daydream Nation set the standard and pathway for all of indie/alternative to come. Countless bands have tried to copy and duplicate the sound on Daydream Nation, especially songs like Silver Rocket, Candle, Eric's Trip, and Teen Age Riot. The album shook the American underground, which in turn brought immense changes to the consumer end, or mainstream, of rock and roll and things to come.
And yes, Lee is totally underrated, but he is known for all of his art (songs, poetry, film, books, etc.) not just his guitar playing.
