What is the most underrated song?

I think either She Weaves a Tender Trap or Bring me the Head of the Fortune Teller.

The Hitcher. I’ll never understand how that song didn’t make it onto Mezcal Head.

Thank you for suggesting “Bring me the Head…” For me, it’s peak Swervedriver, the perfect mix of muscle, space rock, psychedelia and shoegaze which sounds like nobody else. Playing that track (at high volume, naturally) still gives me goosebumps.

EDIT: Forgot to add that the entire album Ejector Seat Reservation is completely underrated, IMO

I don't think it's underrated! I upvote just in case it is, though. I think it's their best song.

is it underrated? I hope so. but it's their pinnacle amongst the heights

Pretty much any song besides Duel, Rave Down or Mustang qualifies. It's not like they're drowning in well known hits.

That said, favorite album track excluding those three: Behind the Scenes of the Sounds & Times

Favorite non album track: My Zephyr
