Does anybody else think Orbital are underrated?

You guys are awesome.  I think I may have finally met someone that likes Orbital as much as me, but not likely j/k.  I saw Orbital at the House of Blues in Orlando.  Their last show was on my birthday (7/10) in Ireland, I wanted to go so bad.  I don't want to brag but I have both of the American Releases of In Sides.  If you want the first release I could send it to you.  Contact me through Answers.  I know it's illegal but it's out of print, if they want to make money start selling it again.

They seem to be very heavy on the indie and light on the funk. The first track reminded me of the old Wild Cherry track 'Play That Funky Music'. The music is dated and unimaginative. They can obviously play, but are not individual enough. I think that if they have stage charisma in abundance, they may progress further, but if what I have heard on the site is anything to go by they are simply not sufficiently original to become a top flight band. They should team up with a good songwriter and build from there, because they certainly don't have a good songwriter at the moment. Sorry, but you did ask what people thought.

They were huge for a little while, but were seen as a kind of embarrassment to hardcore prog rock fans since the music was very MTV-friendly & had some prog rock heroes in the band. I liked a couple of tunes off the 1st 2 albums. Nothing else.\n\nEh. Just find some classic Yes, ELP & Genesis.

They are great in my opinion...

Yes they're one of my fav. bands and their new cd rocks! I saw them in concert, front row man! Rock on! Totally an awesome band to see in concert. Also, if you like them, check out the band called Emery. Not quite as hard, but they're on the same label.\nAnd Hawthorne Heights is really close to Underotah

Heck YES!  It is well worth it.  I think it's probably their best album, maybe...close call from Blood, Sugar, S*x, Magik.  It is outstanding.

That's your opinion. They're as good as a million other bands out there.

I totally agree =] ! I love New Wave, Electro, 80s Alternative, etc... a lot of synth based music, really. And Depeche Mode are my favourite band by far (love a lot of the other bands you mentioned too, esp. DD). But unfortunately a lot of 80s music gets dismissed way too quickly by a lot of people... which is a shame. Like you say, a lot of it is really unique & innovative. I think so anyway.\n\n"I THINK IT IS UNDERRATED BY THE YOUNGER PEOPLE THAT DON'T APPRECIATE WHAT MUSIC WAS LIKE BACK THEN."\n\nWell not by everyone... I'm 16, so I wasn't even alive during the 80s. :)

Mostly yes.  Their new album is awesome.  It's very creative.  The only reason i say mostly, is because there are some songs i don't like, just like with any other band.  "teenagers"  is my favorite.

Orbital - The Box.  \n\nI saw it on AMP, a show that used to come on MTV late at night.  (anyone remember liquid television).  Damn I'm old.  It was the exact instant when I stopped listening to all other genres of music.

OMG!!!\nI LOVE THEM!!!!!!!!!!!\nI THINK THEY ARE THE BEST BAND EVER!!!\nI own every song ever recorded. I absolutely love them.\nI have loved them since their first album. I love every song. I think their lyrics are deep & meaningful. They are NOT emo!!!! I think that their message is really great. They were a bunch of depressed alcoholics, but they got past that because of their love of music. I think they are an inspiration to other people out there in a similar situation. They make people see that it is possible to turn your life around and do something you really want to do.

I think the Red Hots deserve some credit,,,they are one of the few punk/rock bands that have survived the test of time and they continue to put out great hit songs on each album....I personally love them...I respect them because of the drug addictions they have overcome and they are still able to perform great music. I think they are one of the best current bands out there.....

i think hawthorne heights is pretty amazing, sure they don't do too much new, but the way they layer screams and vocals captures me

Way too underrated.  His problem is that Neil and Geddy are tops of all time and they cast a long shadow.  It diminishes the work of a A student to have their siblings be A+++.
