The Muse.

Best band out there by far. One of the most talented bands I've seen in a long time. By far the best 3-piece (although someone recently told me they picked up a road keyboardist).

I have no idea why this band hasn't WTF-E'sploded all over the world. I've been a fan for 4 years or so, and when they've come to town it's gone from a club whose circuit breaker couldn't keep up with their gear, to stadiums... so they've gotten somewhat bigger.

i have to agree with the others, Rush, Mellencamp and Dire Straits have all been critically acclaimed at some point in their careers.

For me:

The Cars
Berlin
A Flock of Seagulls

Zevon would make my list too...but I think he got some critical acclaim....Lawyers Guns and Money....one of the best songs ever. Also check out the Hindu Love Gods, where Zevon is Vocalist w/ REM, minus Stipe.

yeah i considered zevon a marginal addition to the list, i think a lot of people from my generation (in their twenties) don't really know who he is, and other than "Werewolves of London" he doesn't get any radio play

If the Drive-By Truckers aren't considered great, then I guess that's mine too. They are truly awesome.

Oh yeah and

hey, I think they should be in the R&R HOF, but they really don't get the critic acclaim I think they should.

BTW, Berlin and AFOS are massively underrated.

I'm not really sure how Phish isn't considered great. You may think they're a bunch of dirty hippies but their musical greatness cannot be denied.

Berlin has at least a half dozen good songs....AFOS maybe 3 or 4 depending on taste.
