I'll start...

"Rainy Days" by Raekwon (Only Built 4 Cuban Linx)

"Try to Do Me" by Brand Nubian (One For All)

"Bad Note" by Outkast (Idlewild)

(Sorry, that last one is "the worst song on a truly awful album.")

I always hated 'Levitate Me' on 'C'mon Pilgrim.'

I think Emerson, Lake & Palmer's debut album would've been much better without Lucky Man. That song is suck the d.ick.

Neil Young - Sleeps with Angels... the song about the doq (old king, I think)

PS I may be thinking about Harvest Moon, not certain.

Yeah that's the song I was trying to think of last night. Rest of the album is stellar, though!

"El Ciervo Vulnerado" by The Mars Volta (Amputechture)

The sole blemish on an otherwise perfect album. Extra demerit points deducted because it's the album's last song. That's a "Bad Note," Mars Volta.

(Still possibly the year's best album, though.)

"The India Song" on Big Star's #1 Record. Why, oh why, did they have to give the bass player a song? Dude, just shut up and play the bass.

Artist: Snoop Doggy Dogg
Album: Doggystyle
Offending song: Lodi Dodi. Snoop's feminine vocal style for much of the song is absolutely embarrassing to listen to. Pure tosh.

Artist: Metallica
Album: Master of Puppets
Offending song: The thing that should not be. The song that should not have been. "Dark deceptor kills the light"....oh dear.

Artist: Led Zeppelin
Album: IV
Offending song: The Battle of Evermore. This songs starts off brilliantly and then totally goes off the rails with Robert Plant's out of tune wailing. A real turd of a song. All the others are awesome. Why this song always makes the 'best of's and 'Going to California' and 'when the levee breaks' don't......

Artist: Paul McCartney and Wings
Album: Band on the run
Offending song: Drink to my health. A real rotter from Macca on what is a classic 70s album, some of the songs comfortably equalling Lennon's solo work.

Artist: Nirvana
Album: Bleach
Offending song: Paper Cuts. An utter horror show of a track on an otherwise outstanding debut.

Artist: Pantera
Album: The Great Southern Trendkill
Offending song: Suicide note part II. It's a horrible racket, it really is. This record contains some of Pantera's best work (and some of their worst))

Artist: Kraftwerk
Album: Trans-Europe Express
Offending song: Metal on metal. Some great ideas, but horribly repetitive towards the end.

Artist: Pink Floyd
Album: Saucerful of Secrets
Offending song: See-saw. Even Rick Wright, who wrote it, hates it.

Artist: David Bowie
Album: Scary Monsters
Offending song: It's no game part 1. An embarrassing, foul noise, hardly the ideal introducing track on one of Bowie's best albums. It does grow on you though. But, the album would be better if it started at track 2.

Wrong.

Dont agree with See-Saw either.

I hate the phukcing bells on Dark Side of the Moon before "Time." Especially as it come from the fading sounds of "On the Run" and im usually going to sleep. I know its not a "song" but hey...I dont give a poo about your taste in musc. Phuck your couch nigar.

Listen to the album "Zero" by the Brian Jonestown Massacre.

I have to disagree. I think Master of Puppets isn't as good as people claim it is, but overall it is a solid album from start to finish.

Well, if you like a two note piano lead ins, tambourine action, cheesy lyrics and ripped off Queen riffs - Rock On brother Rolling Eyes

'Cos compared to the rest of the album that song ...SUCKS!!




That's straight from Joel "Lamb Chops" Gion, Baby!

Why can't people just post their opinions about music without jackasses coming on and "correcting" the other person's "wrong" opinions? That's so fucking lame.

Oh right. So, I guess Spinoza's gonna get on here next and agree that he had made a mistake earlier, and that it actually is a solid album from start to finish. Grumble, grumble.. idiot twahts..
