Bob Dylan-Self Portrait comes to mind.

Amnesiac by Radiohead what a pile of self indulgent garbage


Transmit Disrupt - Hell is for heroes
ok I dont hate it it has some good tracks but its just wank in comparison to neon handshake and their new self titled offering(which is their best so far)

Corgan's voice is at its peak on that album

Standing on the Shoulder of Giants by Oasis is really bad

TheBig3 01-08-2008 11:47 AM

I happen to really enjoy Midnight Vultures. Leave it to the brits to not get soul.

Leave it to a half Brit to know the difference between Soul & cheesy 80s disco :D

Dylan was much worse, though to be fair it was the record companies idea to release the songs that weren't good enough for Self Portrait.

FaSho 10-11-2008 10:52 AM

im a pretty big SR-71 fan but "here we go again" is ****

I actually love both SP and Dylan. The only Dylan albums I really don't care for are Desire, Infidels, Oh Mercy, World Gone Wrong, and Knocked Out Loaded (and even those have their moments).

I actually like GCW; it's an example of a flawed masterpiece to be sure, but it's very interesting. I'd rank it ahead of Almost Blue, King Of America, The Delivery Man, When I Was Cruel, and a few others.



But let's see...my picks:

Bruce Springsteen- The Rising, Devils & Dust, Magic; God, when will he realize that hiring Brendan O'Brien was the worst decision he ever made? Human Touch wasn't this bad.

Elvis Costello- North; Does this really need more explanation?

Buzzcocks- Trade Test Transmissions: Why???

The Who- Quadrophenia- Apart from 5:15, Love Reign O'er Me, and The Dirty Jobs, there's nothing here that's very interesting, which is a shame, because conceptually, it's miles ahead of any other Who album.

jackhammer 10-11-2008 01:23 PM

5:15 is indeed a belting tune. I quite like 'Devils & Dust' but I have to really be in the mood for it.

Alfred 10-11-2008 02:23 PM

5:15 and Love Reign O'er me are so good.

I think King Of America's a fantastic album personally (Suit Of Lights is one of the best songs of all time IMO), but each to their own. GCW has it's moments (Sour Milk-Cow Blues and Room Without a Number are great songs) but otherwise I really don't care for it

Suit Of Lights and Brilliant Mistake are amazing tunes; I could do without the rest of KOA.

On GCW, I really love Joe Porterhouse for some reason. Sour Milkcow Blues is great too. The Comedians is interesting because Roy Orbison's performance is so much better, but Costello's version (arguably) has the better lyrics (on GCW, there's the line "All that glitters is not chrome"; on Mystery Girl, Costello reverted to the cliche "All that glitters is not gold"...why?). I can definitely see why most people hate the album, though.

When I first heard D+D, I was convinced it was one of Springsteen's three best albums. The production really kills it, though, and some of the songs are incredibly weak. I do like Black Cowboys. I saw him on the D+D tour, and I just can't help thinking that the album would have been a true masterpiece with a few rewrites and Nebraska-style arrangements.

HotRockinJohnny 10-12-2008 09:38 AM

Eric Clapton - Pilgrim

Black Crowes - Three Snakes and One Charm

Neil Young - Living With War

Pink Floyd - The Final Cut

John Fogerty - Revival

'' A Bigger Bang''.....and it was a pretty good album. The only problem was a couple of filler songs. And I hate using the term ''filler songs'', but it's true.

As a big Rolling Stones fan, I'd say ''Bridges to Babylon'' (1997) was incredibly bad.

Davey Moore 10-12-2008 02:37 PM

I really don't like With The Beatles. Good album cover, and some good songs. But a lot of the songs seem like filler.

FaSho 10-12-2008 03:01 PM

it was definitley the beatles worst effort

I'd imagine you don't know what the **** you're talking about, so I'll spare you argument. But you should really try listening to music before you make flawed generalizations about it. Master of Puppets and Ride the Lightning are two of the greatest metal albums of all time.

FaSho 10-13-2008 02:41 PM

ive never heard master of puppets but ride the lighting is **** except for "as the bell tolls" or something and i dont actually think their s/t is toobad they just havent done anything thats really impressed me

You should probably listen to it before you make claims like that. And Ride The Lightning absolutely shits on 99% of other thrash albums. Fade to Black, The Call of Ktulu, and the aforementioned For Whom The Bells Toll are three of the most solid progressive metal tracks. I dunno what the hell you were listening to...

meh metallica's just not for me i guess nothing to prove there

Trollheart 10-14-2008 06:46 AM

I wouldn't say I HATE it, but "Somewhere else" is the first album from Marillion that I wasn't totally blown away by. I tried so hard to like it, and some of it IS good, but for Marillion, that's just not ok. I kind of struggled a little with "Marbles", but now I love it, but I don't see me ever loving "Somewhere else". Hopefully the new one will be a vast improvement.

kida 10-14-2008 02:36 PM

There are about 3 songs on the album that are worth hearing, the rest is filler half-assed crap. I can still listen to it, but for Bright Eyes it's a big disappointment.

Brad Stengel 10-14-2008 05:04 PM

Any post-Mellon Collie smashing pumpkins

"New Magnetic Wonder"- The Apples in Stereo

Any post-Smile Beach Boys
