Gravechylde The War Starter Gravechylde Trad. Doom always has been and always will be one of the lesser known genres, but other than Black Sabbath there hasn't been any mainstream bands (only relatively popular). Heavy Metal is also a very under-appreciated genre. There's plenty of great Heavy Metal that isn't a big name. But for the most part it hasn't really been over run with less talented bands unless you count the "Hair metal" scene, but even then most of the lesser talented bands generally fall on the rock side. These pretty much. You will see bands like Judas Priest, Manowar, Iron Maiden, Dio, etc. etc. pop up all the time in coversations, but rarely will you see talk of bands like Omen, Cirith Ungol, Manilla Road, Brocas Helm, and others except among a few small circles. But I don't really mind, in most cases it's these small circles that are usually the ones who actually appreciate the music. Prog. rock and all its genres are pretty lost among many people. I don't know much about it myself, but I am getting pretty interested in it. Indeed, I've really been getting into Heavy Metal myself. As for Prog. it may be under-appreciated, but it's easy to see why. I've been following the tourney and I've found that what I didn't like about prog. at first is now what I'm liking about it. xp i dont htink prog belongs in that list.. i mean...the magazine i keep read every month always has a few good prog albums...and its actually an always returning genre really.. cant say the same for heavy though...

There are some popular Prog. bands, but to me it seems only a few really go into and see what's there. It's not the most under-appreciated, but there are really only a few bands that get any real recognition.

Gravechylde I don't really agree with Funeral as it's really one of the more popular forms of doom. And It seems like there are so many bands that are just doing mostly the same thing. I see Traditional doom being the most popular.

I see Traditional doom being the most popular. Well, it has been getting a little more recognition lately, but is still the least liked 'subgenre' of doom (apart from drone).
