Mine will have to go to..........
Weezer - Raditude
This album stinks to high heaven. Just tragic for a band capable of great albums such as Pinkerton and The Green Album. Lyrics are dreadful, tailor-made for high school movies.... Song titles like 'Cant Stop Partying, 'Im Your Daddy', 'The Girl Got Hot', just a stupid stupid album. Rivers Cuomo is 40 by the way.
well i won't say worst but most disappointing for me was this california band, comets on fire ('avatar') which sounded like lame-a$$ doobie brothers modern rock. before that they were psych-rock gods in the making, three terrific records in the mold of a band like blue cheer.
Guns N' Rose - Chinese Democracy
A complete turd of an album. Took him 15 years to make and all! Self indulgent crap.
Pearl Jam - Riot Act
might not be the worst album, just the most disappointing
RHCP - Stadium Arcadium.
Atrocious stuff.
Metallica - St. Anger...
No guitar solos! And drums that sounded like tinny trashcans. What were they thinking?
I actually fell asleep the first time I listened to it!Quote:

In fairness, Death Magnetic's great :)Quote:

I admit, I actually did like Significant Other at the time, but this is just lowest common denominator stuff.
Sorry to hear that about Raditude. I really liked the Red Album.
Chinese Democracy was OK I thought. I've never been a fan, but you get what you expected from it.
And anyone that actually expects something from an Oasis album.... Jesus.
Razorlight's second album was awful. No Line on the Horizon has, or hasn't as the case may be, its moments.
I agree with this entire post. As a 'genre milestone' Significant Other is up there, although I don't think I'd put it forward for any awards. Chocolate Starfish is just awful...Quote:

That it's not to my personal taste is scarcely important (other than to me of course) but it just further fed a beast in terms of our national overstock of blokes with acoustic guitars singing wetknickersong.
BTW ...the two singles off St Anger, a couple of dodgy lyrics aside, are savage. The album is weak though. I like the actual sound it mind, including Ulrichs off-snare. Sounds more like a hardcore record than a traditional metal record.
The Killers - Sam's Town
The Killers - Day & Age.
I can't choose which of these was worse.
I'd say Day & Age is worse, very weak album. I actually prefer Sam's Town to Hot Fuss.Quote:

Exciter by Depeche Mode. A truly awful album.
On a more positive note, anybody who likes synth music should check out their album Violator, which to me is the best synth album ever made.
I personally rate SOTSOG as being better than Heathen Chemistry :) theres at least 5-6 good tunes on itQuote:

Thought 'Where Did It All Go Wrong' was a decent track too. But Little James... what a car crash of a song. Wonder what Mrs Kensit thinks of it now.Quote:
