Not all time, but The Cult was a good little band. At least their Sonic Temple album I thought was really good.

A couple of my older favs that many people don't know: Morphine and the V-Roys. More current bands/artists: Howie Day, Damien Rice, and Lucero.

there was a band that opened for Creed (yeah yeah) called The Virgos. Their lead singer jumped ship to be Creed's bassist and that pretty much was the end of the band, right after the release of their debut album, "The Path of Least Resistance". I became a huge fan and they fell off the face of the earth.

Great riffs and hooks and just a good overall rock sound. Anyone interested should try and find their album, or at least the song "Back To You".

and, before the Creed jokes start, yeah I thought the first cd rocked so I went to see them in concert when they opened their second tour in Atlanta. Creed became crap, but I did discover this band, so it was worth it.

Totally agree with you man. They should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Good call on Morphine Kiddiedoc - that guy was very talented.

My most underated band of all time is NRBQ - they've been around forever, are a blast to see live but never made it out of cult status.
