of people calling them underrated;

simply because surely anybody possessing a brain and a pair of functional ears would "rate" them most highly.

The new album, like their last four (well, OK, their first two), is fucking fantastic.

What else do they have to do to prove that they have blown their contemporaries (The Stokes, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Liars etc... [and I like all of those bands by the way]) out of the water?
