worst album from your band

 whats the worst album that your favourite band made, and this doesnt have to be money wise it's just on your personell music opinion.

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

Dishonorable mention to And then There Were Three and Duke.

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.

 for dire straits, i haven't heard them all but comunique was a bit of a let down, it had two good songs but thats it.

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.

Worst album by my favorite band RUSH... Presto - "Show Dont Tell" & "Superconductor" are cool, but not much else is good.

 definetly fear of the dark from iron maiden

Genesis: We Can't Dance. (or make good songs anymore)
Yes: Big Generator (Small musicianship)
Gentle Giant: Civilian (what they became after)
Rush: Show of Hands (never to be said after the words "All who dislike this album")
Pink Floyd: The Final Cut (sure was)
ELP: Several species of furry men with tight pants gathered together on a beach and grooving with a... um, with a.... um.... with a... comeon, help me out here....!!??
Jethro Tull: J-Tull Dot Com. J-Tull? wtf?


I'm almost positive you can tell they're all the worst simply from the album covers. Try it.

Mine are:

Jethro Tull: Under Wraps. Ian Anderson keeps saying that the songs are good, but the arrangements weren't. Sorry, the arrangements were dreadful and most of the songs too (specially the B-sides that appeared in the CD edition, making the album even worse)

Camel: The Single Factor, although I like A Heart's Desire/End Peace. And kind of like Camelogue.

Dire Straits/Mark Knopfler: The Ragpicker's Dream. Boooooooooring. I couldn't find any memorable song.

Rennaissance: Time Line. Ugh... even Camera Camera had some things. That said, I'm not counting that Michael Dunford's Rennaissance record I only heard once and decided I really didn't need to check it out again.

The Waterboys: Universal Hall. THE most boring and repetitive album I've ever bought. And I have some new age ones...

Gentle Giant: The Missing Piece. Yes, I think it's worse than 'Giant for a Day'. At least, the latter has some catchy tunes.

Mike Oldfield: None. I even kinda like 'Earth Moving', 'TB3'  and 'Tres Lunas'. I'm THAT fan.

Genesis: Abacab.  Ugh.

The Strawbs: Deja Fou. It's not it's bad. It has some good songs. In fact I can't thing of any really bad song there. But it was soooooo dissapointing. And the poor production is frustrating, not to mention the bad vocal work by Dave Cousins. I thought the man was finished, but then I bought last week his latest, 'Cousins and Conrad: High Seas' and found he still can sing. So what the .... happened?

 

Definitely Big Generator. Well, you can add Union as well (the latter is slightly better) because it was done with a great line up, but look at the result! Where was Wakeman, for God's sake?!?!?
