Urban Hat€monger ?

I'm going to go through my top 10 most played artists on last FM & pick which I think is their worse album

1. The Fall - Are You The Missing Winner
There are 3 fall albums I don't really like much. The Frenz Experiment , Cerebral Caustic & Are You The Missing Winner.
I'd probably go with Are You The Missing Winner as I can't recall a single song from that album without looking

2. David Bowie - Young Americans
Most people would rightly go for his 80s & 90s material but personally Young Americans bores me to death. Only Fame , Golden Years & the title track are any good really.And even then I only really listen to Golden Years out of those three.

3. The Rolling Stones - Black n Blue
There are plenty of recent albums I could include but i'm gonna go with Black n Blue because if there's one thing the stones should never have attempted it's reggae , and on this album they didn't try it once but twice. The rest of the album is made up of Jaggers crappy disco tunes & some turgid ballads.

4. The Clash - Give Em Enough Rope
I refuse to put Combat Rock here because the more I listen to it the more I love it. I also refuse to put Sandinista here for the sheer balls for even attempting it. I shall put here Give Em Enough Rope. I can handle The Clash being bad , but I can't handle them being boring and side 2 of this album is dull as ditchwater.

5. Motorhead - March Or Die
A lot of fans seem to hate Another Perfect Day because it's one of their most melodic albums , probably due to the influence of Thin Lizzy guitarist Brian Robertson being in the band at the time , but I love that album. I'll go instead for their March Or Die album , which was so boring to me I didn't buy another Motorhead album for about another 10 years.

6. The Cure - Wish
Crowquill is spot on with Wish , a horrible cynical attempt of latching the band on to the growing grunge audience in the U.S.
An awful AWFUL record.

7. Primal Scream - Primal Scream
Despite being a huge Primal Scream fan half their recorded output could be here. There's the jangly indiepop debut the band disowned which is rather good to me , so i'm not choosing that. I could go for Give Out But Don't Give Up which was labelled by one critic as a Black Crowes tribute album , but that was the first album I got by them so i'm not going for that. The remix album Echo Dek I personally think is rubbish . I also found Riot City Blues got old real quick too. But if I was to choose one I would go for their self titled second album which just contains every single garage rock cliche going.

8. Radiohead - In Rainbows
I'm going to come out of the woodwork and back up ComingUpRoses with In Rainbows here. Pablo Honey has it's faults but it's a debut & they were finding their feet. With In Rainbows my biggest problem is it sounds like you'd expect a Radiohead album to sound , theres just no surprises (HA!). Every Radiohead album has it's own sound , to me In Rainbows just sounds like a mish mash of all their other albums. And another thing , it sounded virtually identical to Thom Yorke's solo album. Just what do the other 4 bandmembers do exactly?

9. Can - Rite Time
This one is pretty easy. Rite Time , the late 80s comeback album with original vocallist Malcolm Mooney. I have heard it I just can't remember a single thing about it

10. Stereolab - Cobra and Phases Group Play Voltage in the Milky Night
Most of Stereolab's albums have tons of filler but if I had to pick a worst I would probably say Cobra and Phases Group Play Voltage in the Milky Night. More thought seems to have gone to the title of the album rather than the songs.
