That was the last time I bought anything on CD.
When I bought The Resistance I had the exact same reaction. On the drive home I was skipping through the tracks shouting "where's the ####ing riffs ?!" Never listened to it again.

Some candidates for the worst music I ever actually spent money on:



Complete Euro-trash sings autotuned techno tracks about Playstation and blue aliens. Just horrible. Not even fun for the camp factor.



Pretentious crap. Every song sounds the same.



...no.



I don't hate this as much as the other records on this list, but I was so excited when I bought the special edition. I even bought in Iceland. I was so pumped to hear it, and on the trip back from Iceland to Boston, I tried man. I. Tried. It was terrible and still is.



Aside from the title track, this album is simply a dud. While it was recorded back when Britney had at least SOME vocal talent, the sappy production did not age well and my love affair with Britney didn't last longer than a couple of months.



Weird to put my favorite boys on this list, but seriously now. What were they thinking when they erased all the melodies and musicianship from their sound? What made Duran Duran so special was the way they twisted synths and guitars to make a sound all their own. This was just adult contemporary crap. Decent vocals from Simon, though.

**BONUS** A free album I still ended up loathing:



With songs like Can't Take My Eyes Off You and Anyone Who Had a Heart, I was pumped to hear this. But my God. These boys are dreary and zap all the personality out of some amazing tracks. The only piece of vinyl I've ever actually taken a box cutter to. Just for shiggles. At least it was free.

Hey, I like that one. It's nothing amazing, but I enjoy it or at least I used to enjoy it. I haven't listened to it in years.

I'm actually really surprised that anyone on here has even heard of those guys, but I guess it makes sense because the band is from Boston, I'm originally from there, and you apparently live there now.

Yeah, I found them in a local bin at the old Looney Tunes location in Harvard Square. I just couldn't get into them...

I think I ended up throwing it out because I couldn't sell it. :X Ooopsie.

I still have a copy of that Britney Spears album. My ex loved that Spears record. I occassionally dust it off for parties just so the radio friendly crowd can get jumping.

I love Duran Duran but even I knew that Liberty would not cut it for me. The last thing i bought was the single Ordinary World.

Heh. And I believe I got my copy at the old CD Spins on Newbury Street. Ah, memories.

I quite enjoyed that album as a kid, though I don't think i'd like it as much as I did if I decide to listen to it now. Maybe I would.

I tried to like this as well. I still like "Serious," though - They should have scrapped the album and kept it as a stand-alone single. Sounded like that they were trying to come up with ideas, but could not really get them through. Very blah, but there are a couple of moments.
