    If someone were to tell me of a band that I thought were “under - appreciated”, TRUSTCompany would be at the top of my picks. When I first heard “Downfall” back in Fall 2016, I immediately got hooked on it. It’s been my favorite ever since. “Downfall” led me to check out The Lonely Position of Neutral. I can describe the album in a few words: UNDERRATED. NU METAL. CLASSIC! One of the first albums I love from front to back. An album that I’ve heard that has no bad tracks! True Parallels and Dreaming in Black and White are cool gems, as well! This was the band that was the starting point to my dive into the underground nu metal scene.

    “Drowning” and “Change” should’ve been hits for Crazy Town, following “Butterfly”. People know them for “Butterfly”, but I think the first two songs that I mentioned are better.
    If there was another band from the ‘00s that should be on this list is The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus. They got huge off of “Face Down” (and it’s no question why. The song’s a straight banger.), but they couldn’t seem to get their subsequent singles/albums to match the immense success of the aforementioned single.

      I disagree.
      The Ataris' cover is very good though, it's a no nonsense cover, they don't add anything to it,bit they don't take away from it at all, and the vocals are bang on.
      However the cover is missing the guitar work

      This conversation was close to sounding like Billy Madison.
      Mortal Kombat on the Sega Genesis is the best video game ever.
      I disagree, it's a very good game but I think Donkey Kong is the best game ever.
      Donkey Kong sucks!
      You know something? You suck!

    Fountains of Wayne deserved some success after lurking in the underground for so long. They were on the verge of breaking up, but "Stacy's Mom" saved them. I saw them live a year-and-a-half before the song was released at a small venue in Cleveland. The show was less than half sold and a pre-fame OK Go opened for them in 2002. The band seemed so distraught and joked about calling it quits. I'm glad they didn't. RIP Adam Schlesinger.

    American Hi-Fi were so good. The album had loads of great songs on it, really should have been bigger than they were.

      100% agree. They had a whoooooole bunch of good stuff on that album. I think Flavor is still a really good song. It might be “four chord pop punk”, but the melodies, lyrics, and general dynamics of the song are all really, really good.

    Gotta say thanks for your videos in general. I'm getting exposure to a lot of US groups that, living in Australia, I don't necessarily bump heads with, and a bunch of them are now in my playlists. In this case, maybe half of these bands just didn't make a splash down here, and it's great to be exposed to them.

      I will always know them for "Stronger". I cannot for love or money remember which video game soundtrack I heard them on but I go back to that song a lot.

    Would love to see a video on great fun bands with that can be considered hidden gems thst are forgotten or never had #1 hits but are fun to hear like Bowling for Soup or Everclear. Through the 90s and 2000s there were some that had some mainstream success but have a bigger following for their music that didn't hit the charts.
    These top ten are fun, and I really enjoy the content! 👍😁

    I wish he would've mentioned HOW The Calling got their big break. The movie Coyote Ugly was looking for a bar band to play in one of the scenes. The Calling auditioned for it, and boom.

    I think Wherever You Will Go is still so loved cause even though a lot of those bands and songs sounded really similar that track and his vocal are a little notch above. It's just a great song.
