    Most disappointing album of 2007?

    Mine would be...

    Chemical Brothers - We are the Night
    One or two clunkers there. Nothing like their best work and their all time worst single 'Salmon Dance' killed it for me.

    Foo Fighters - Echoes, Silence, Patience and Grace
    Some of it was excellent, the rest of it average. And whats with the banjo interval?

    Smashing Pumpkins - Zeitgeist
    Had a lot of high hopes for this. Didnt work out that way. 'Pomp and Circumstance' their worst ever effort.

    Yeah, I'd go along with that
    Strangely enough, Foo Fighters in Markley Park was the best concert I was at this year

    Actually thought White Stripes 'Icky Thump' was a bit of a letdown. Their albums are nearly always hit and miss affairs I suppose anyway.

    incredibly overrated band anyway, i just really can't see what the fuss is about. She's a bloody useless drummer and he just plays annoyingly crap "obscure" riffs....

    i just. don't. get. it.

    Totally agree, it wasnt a patch on Turn On the Bright Lights or Antics.I still went to the gig based on the quality of the first 2.

    Few more to add..

    Velvet Revolver's 'Libertidad' was pretty dismal. As was Hard Fi's 'Once Upon A Time in the West'. Wasnt Kasabian's Empire 2006 though?
