Most disappointing album


Guest Berry

Recommended Posts

Which new release have you anticipated with excitement for months, only to find when it's released that it's complete shite? I remember nearly wetting myself while I looked forward to Skid Row's Subhuman Race, but I sold it after only a few listens because I was so disappointed. I've kept hold of Scorpions' Eye II Eye, but it rarely gets played apart from the excellent A Moment In A Million Years.

 

On the other side of the coin, I seem to be one of just a handful who actually like Def Leppard's Slang. Musical taste is a curious thing!

 

By the way, I'm running a sweepstake on how long it is before someone mentions Dokken. :D

T-Bone, please do me a favor and go and listen to your Motel California again. I love Ugly Kid Joe and Motel was a great album!, Listen to songs like "It's a Lie", "Would You Like To Be There", "Dialogue", "Shine", "Undertow" and "12 Cents ". It's a great album. You can't expect another Menace To Sobriety, which in my opinon is the best hard rock album ever.

I like Queensryche's Promised Land, but it took a while to grow on me. They lost me after that though.

 

The new Def Leppard is a good album, but it's not a good Def Leppard Album. It's more consistent and original than Euphoria, which tried a bit too hard to be Adrenalize part 2, but not quite what I was hoping for.

David, I listened to UKJ Motel California many times and I still don't like it. There doesn't seem to be any flow on the cd. It's like they abandoned their musicianship to try and be the next Rage Against The Machine. America's Least Wanted was great and they changed to a little edgier sound for the Menace to Sobriety cd, but it too was still very good. This was too much of a drastic change for me to give it any credit. Sorry :(

Diddo jason. Actually, I didn't like Push Comes To Shove that much either. Jackyls debut was the best.

I think Santers blew it big time with Guitar Alley. Following Racing Time with that crap was a huge mistake.

 

Anything Helix did after No Rest For The Wicked was kind of limp.

 

Twisted Sister after You Can't Stop Rock And Roll....no thanks.

 

I thought Frontiers, by Journey, sucked.

TIM,

Well I was actually speaking as an entire album. 4 or 5 good songs and then nothing but filler does not make a god album. I also think it is where the rot began with Journey....until they put it right by ejecting big bird.

 

Substitute Chain Reaction for Edge Of The Blade and you have 5 good songs one after another...then? Nothing.

    • Eclipse played that same game when Apocalypse Blues came out.  They dropped that song as just a single and made no mention of an album at that point as far as I remember.  All they were doing was selling the 7 inch vinyl.  We know now though that they clearly knew a full album was coming as Erik said they basically were working on both albums at the same time and deciding which tracks would go on each album.  Granted, maybe they didn't know the full timing of album #2 at that point but they certainly knew one was coming. Maybe the same here.  Maybe will trickle out a few songs and then announce an album later this year or early next year when it's closer to release.
    • So, Danny posted how the song is doing on Spotify and someone asked if this means a new album soon. Danny just made vague replies and said "well there will be more stuff coming soon"
    • Funnily enough, I read that this afternoon when I went to add the album to my collection on the main page. I got the European version which has two bonus tracks ... if you don't have them, you really aint missing anything

    • Created and Posted this video recently in order to promote Ryder SRIII a little more.  I love this song, one of my personal favs from the record.   Be careful viewing at work though (NSFW), just for a couple of images in the video.   
    • Named my HH self after the song Auslander on the album Stain. Love that track. Really like the whole album. It's like Living Colour's "Slave to the Grind" or "Dog Eat Dog".
    • From Frontiers: TRACKLIST: 1 Awesome God 2 Stand Up 3 Warrior 4 There You Are 5 Speak His Name 6 Why God Brought Me Here 7 Praying 8 It's Up to You 9 Holy Moment 10 Leaning on the Cross 11 Jesus Christ --- When a musical family gets together to record, magic can happen and this is what the VAN ZANT’s are here for! Brothers Johnny and Donnie Van Zant (respectively current lead vocalist of Southern Rock icons Lynyrd Skynyrd and founding member of .38 Special) were able to find room in their busy schedules for the first time in 1998, recording their collaboration album “Brother to Brother”: a tribute to their late brother and Lynyrd Skynyrd original singer and founding member Ronnie. Such release was highly acclaimed between the press and fans worldwide and brought the duo to record a follow up album, simply entitled “II” in 2001. Their collaboration during the years did not stop as they tapped their feet in a more Country-oriented style with the release of “Get Right With the Man” (certified Gold in the USA in 2005) and later on with “My Kind of Country” in 2007. Now the brothers once again reinvent themselves, offering a Christian-themed album encompassing their Rock and Blues musical roots (and with a touch of Country for good measure). The result “Always Look Up” is made up of songs that will touch the listener’s heart and soul, with an emotional depth that is truly second to none in today’s musical landscape. Experience the soul touching that only the music from the Van Zant family, can provide. You will see why they are icons of the American South, and musical heroes to millions around the globe!
