    Nice tune Sludgey. Not heard it before. I guess I lumped the band in with the (mostly) dreadful grunge movement of the early 1990s

    Buffalo Tom were a straight up jeans and t shirt rock band

    With regards to grunge I think it was a daft genre

    Nirvana were a good band imo , good crossover of punk and rock

    Sound garden......hard Rock , Pearl Jam .....ditto

    Stone Temple Pilots , Screaming Trees , Alice In Chains all good rock bands liked by people wearing silly ripped jeans

    Mudhoney were/are the best of the lot. They never got what they deserved. I found out recently(ish) that every member has always held down a full time job. Tragic.

    ‘Let me come over’ is a great LP of its type, the one after was good too. Saw them once in London a fair few years ago now. Do think they get fairly lumped in with the (American) student crowd though Sludgey, definite 90s college rock.

    My first big go to when I think of this question are:

    The Chameleons (not helped by consistently questionable artwork): https://youtu.be/SHYBC8qeh-I

    The Sound (released a fair amount of records before sadly the singer took his own life): https://youtu.be/vdA159Apd4I

    From times gone by there was a local S Wales band called Kooga (formally Preacher) released an album called Across the water.Would have put my bottom dollar on them making big time.

    Tidy that, here's my offering:

    The Adventures went on to to chart very low with a couple. But the latter never made it.

    I'm am slowly recalling the greats that were underrated

    Green on Red
    The Replacements
    Jessie Malin Ex D Generation ( playing Newport Soon Le Pub 21st June 2022)
    Long Ryders
    Jason and The Scorchers

    For those folk who like the unsung hero's of music Bob Mold of Husku Du , who in my mind have paved the way for Pixies, Nirvana, the Foo Fighters, Metallica, Green Day and many more plays the Globe in June 28.

    The ‘Mats are definitely one of those sort of doomed, “shoulda been a contender ‘ma” type bands. Loved their stuff from the beginning till ‘pleased to meet you’.

    Bob Mould definitely worth seeing live. Husker Du are/were one of my favourite bands ever, although they’re not recognisable in a mainstream sense they definitely had a big influence (in certain circles) so I never quite think of them as being underrated.

    Mentioned Red on Green and I did have a bit of a re-listen to those Paisley Underground bands recently. Rain Parade in particular I liked a bit.

    As you mentioned Big Black I thought I’d post Cardiff’s own answer (Slowjam): https://youtu.be/QzA19BnsdGE

    Gentle Giant, a really underrated prog-rock band:

    John Weathers (drummer) originally from Carmarthen. He later moved to Swansea and played with Man after Gentle Giant disbanded.
