I love your magazine and getting the news in an email but I gotta tell you I’m really tired of your need to tell us what songs/artists/lp’s are Overrated. I have no interest whatsoever in reading those items. Let us know more about the stuff that was Underrated so that we may have the pleasure of hearing it too. Thanks.

Tomorrow, we’re posting our 2009 Hidden Treasures, a list of 10 great overlooked albums from the year. That qualifies as underrated, I think.
