what about another "top ten":

pink floyd: final cut
genesis: invisible touch (however "abacrap", genesis are not much better)
rush: roll the bones
dream theater: train of thought
yes: big generator
spock's beard: snow (the second cd is mostly boring filler stuff)
steve hackett: cured
flower kings: adam and eve
camel : pressure points
marillion: tales from the engine room

Worst album by my favorite band RUSH... Presto - "Show Dont Tell" & "Superconductor" are cool, but not much else is good.
Strangers passing in the street by chance two separate glances meet and I am you and what I see is me. And do I take you by the hand and lead you through the land and help me understand the best I can

Kansas - Drastic Measures

It's not even close to the quality of any other album they released; not even Vinyl Confessions, the other album John Elefante was a part of.

And it might as well be raining, 'cause the sunlight hurts his eyes,
And his ears will never hear the children's cries

To this day I have no clue why. The lyrics are kind of dumb, I guess. Maybe the sound, too repetitive? All's I know is I hide my head in shame at nearly every song with one exception, and that is On the Turning Away (though the live version of Learning to Fly is alright).

Not that Floyd is my fave band - though they're up there, that's either Yes, King Crimson or Mike Oldfield. But I at least half-liked all of their stuff.

I hear this comments very often, but I like A Momentary Lapse of Reason, not Pink Floyd's masterpiece but it sounds as Floyd. Of course the lyrics are blander than in any previous album because Roger Waters is a great lyricist and without him there was a big hole to fill, but this album is OK for me, and they didn't sold out.

I agree with you about AMLoR Ivan. I think it's a misunderstood, and much maligned album that I actually enjoy!

For me, the worst FLOYD album is the Ummagumma Studio Album! Apart from Grantchester Meadows and The Narrow Ways, it is pompous and tedious to listen to!

I also can't stand We Can't Dance by GENESIS, Big Generator by YES and every solo album by Phil Collins!
Marmalade...I like marmalade.

Everything from ABACRAP to And Then There Were Two (CAS).

Dishonorable mention to And then There Were Three and Duke.

I would say the first RUSH album is the worst album from my favorite band. I know the 80's synth period had some slightly ill-concieved CDs... but the first one is really just like a demo tape, if you think about it. (Working Man is SO much better on All The World's a Stage)
If it's worth playing, it's worth playing loud!
