This is probably my favorite record from the '90s.

10 amazing songs and zero filler. Not a second of this album is wasted. Turned out to be their final offering. The singer and bass player died in a bus accident a month before the album was released.
"Mighty K.C." was the song that got me into this band. It's great, but I strongly recommend the entire album. Every one of their songs could have been the best song on some other album.

I never thought I'd find anyone else who recognized how fantastic that record was.
To the OP, thanks for suggesting Failure. I'm digging it.
It's hard to know what gems are really hidden though. Take "In The Aeroplane Over the Sea" by Neutral Milk Hotel. One of the best, if not the best, albums of the last 20 years. If you are an Indie rock/Pitchfork media type, you know all about that album. But for anyone outside that sort of cork-sniffing community, probably hasn't heard of it.

Yeah, my friend recommended that album to me a while ago, but I still haven't listened to it(three of us did a "Favorite 20 Albums" swap). I'll probably love it, or hate it. His other recommendations I listened to I thought were shit. He likes folk, I like noise and 70's prog. Our tastes only converge at random indie-rock bands.
And Pitchfork is really hit or miss for me. On one hand, they pick up a lot of good indie-rock early. On the other, they like Kanye West and M.I.A.. That's a pretty heinous offense in my mind. They really aren't as elitist as people make them out to be. In fact, they're rather music-whorish.
And so this post isn't just rambling:

Sonny Motherfucking Sharrock. The Jimi Hendrix of free jazz. If you're a guitarist and you don't know who Sonny Sharrock is, go get this album or one of his band, Last Exit's live albums, like the following piece of awesome...

I think I'm in the minority of Failure fans who vastly prefers Magnified to Fantastic Planet. I love them both, but the earlier record just pulls the room together for me. That bass tone on Empty Friend ooooohhhhhhhhh fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuckkkkkkk...................

Contains probably my favourite metal riff ever. The main verse bit.

Probably not hidden at all, but I hated shit like this when it was new, so it might as well have been buried to me. Now I love it.
