Pain Of Salvation is my favorite band and I love all of their albums. The Perfect Element gets the least listens though. But it's still a 4.5 star album!!

I don't have every album by all of my favorite bands, so I'm gonna guess some.

Iron Maiden - No Prayer for the Dying (this one I actually do know for sure)

Yngwie J. Malmsteen's Rising Force - Facing the Animal (I'm pretty sure, because I've heard good stuff from Magnum Opus and War to End All Wars, which supposedly rank among the lowest)

Planet X - None (they only have two studio albums so far, and they're both great)

Symphony X - (self entitled debut) (Just a guess based on the reviews)

Judas Priest - Jugulator, Demolition, Turbo, Ram it Down (It's probably one of those. I've heard good stuff from Ram it Down, so it' can't be that. Turbo Lover wasn't that bad either. I guess it's up to the Ripper era albums, which I've heard nothing from)

why does everyone hate fly by night so much? i Think thats a kickass album... and beat by crimson? thats a bit of a classic too. heres my list.

1. Lizard, King crimson. Its just silly. It mankes me laugh, and Im sure thats not what they were trying to do.

2. Delěrium Corděa how can such a great band of musicians produce something that is such a waste of time and money? for Shame!

Queesrych, Q2J. just terrible.

Goodnight, Tonight, Im burning star 4

Yes - Big Generator

King Crimson - Islands (this is the ONLY album they have released that I don't like. I absolutely adore every single incarnation of Crimson except this one.)

Genesis - I've only heard Nursery Cryme through A trick of the trail, and they were all phenomenal.

Radiohead - Pablo Honey; i hate it.

Muse - Showbiz (a fantastic album, but the other albums are MILES ahead of this one in my opinion.)

Led Zeppelin - Coda (1.5/5)  ... A bunch of weak outtakes

Pink Floyd - A sauceful of Secrets (2/5) ... Either weak or unlistenable. Good opener though.

Genesis - Calling All Stations (1/5) ... I can't believe Tony Banks did something as horrible as this! Boring beyond words!

Flower Kings - RainMaker (3/5) ... The band never released a weak album, but this is easily the least interesting. It has some boring short songs and the incredibly incoherent "road to sanctuary"

Yes - Union (1.5/5) ... weak, weak, weak, weak album coming from people like Howe and Wakeman. Dissapointing as heck.

Dream Theater - Train of Thought (3/5) ... Not bad, but somewhat dull and longer than necessary. Some riffs and solos are pretty uninspired, and the keyboardist is easily at his worst here. The long instrumental saves this from being a 2 star album

Emerson Lake and Palmer - In The Hot Seat (1/5) ... Embarrasing. Only "Hand of Truth" is ok.

Dream Theater - When Dream and Day Unite. Maybe the music is alright, but the production is bloody awful. I don't like mr. Dominici's vocals, either.

Opeth - Morningrise. Bits and pieces of songs thrown together doesn't make a good song. This album lacks a general direction.
