Amarok 1.4. Loved that thing. Everything that came afterwards in both terms of version and other similar apps even the mainstream ones do not get close to how good Amarok used to be.

Audacious seems pretty nice. It's not obsolete per se—it's still actively developed—but it is a fork of the old XMMS1 code and inherits a lot of functionality from that venerable player.
