Poisoned Idea - Feel The Darkness

If hardcore punk could be distilled into one album for history.

Agreed. I think everybody was expecting a 'Stone Roses' 2, just a continuation of that debut. But they had grown and were trying new directions. Probably the only track that sounded like it could have been on the first, was Ten Storey Love Song. People didn't give it a chance at the time ...

 

[The Lightbowne Cowboy]

The Kinks Are the Village Green Preservation Society. Absolute brilliance. 50 years old last week btw.

[Deepest Blue]

This was released way before my time and I only discovered it this year from a colleague.

Then having read about it a bit more I think it is underrated, certainly when it was released, if you read the "Reception" heading here;

It’s a strange one.
Not a huge seller when first released but has been massively influential and performs well in those “All Time Top 100 Albums” critics charts.
On the back of that it continues to sell to new generations of fans and a few deluxe edition box sets have appeared so it’s a goldmine for someone (not Arthur Lee, though).

It’s the seminal Kinks album.
Superb but not underrated.

Superb but not underrated.

Under rated in sales and the general public of the late 60s, but revered by any good critic and musician worth his salt. So kinda( do you like that pun) under rated in some sense.
