The Cramps certainly weren't underrated in the mid-80's, but I think their unfortunate recorded legacy in the years since has caused people to forget them. I think this observation is quite accurate.They crossed many subcultural lines back then.
For my own nominations, I'd say Tiny Lights or 17 Pygmies for bands, and maybe F/i. For albums I'd say History Of Unheard Music's Drop It! and maybe Doc Wor Mirran's box set. Both of those last two were on RRRecords, fwiw.

Not most underrated by any means, but this is indeed an underrated electronica album from an era in which electronica albums seemingly have to be very good to be taken notice of.
