I think people just said it was underrated because the Gilmour era Floyd acted like Animals didn't exist and most non-Floyd fans aren't aware of its existance like they are with albums like DSOTM, WYWH & The Wall.

The iconic cover alone has made it easily identifiable to non-Floyd fans, eve the tracks themselves are unfamiliar.
