Worst Album You Own ... ?

Rate this topic


Recommended Posts

I was just browsing through my collection and stumbled upon a few albums that I usually just skip and ignore, but today I started thinking "Wow, I have owned this for YEARS and it has never unfolded anything but shittiness with each listen!" - I'm not so much talking about music that is intentionally bad or cheesy, I'm thinking of artists that have produced good stuff before and after, but released an album full of misses at some point, creating infinite disappointment.

 

I guessed such a thread must already exist but the search function doesn't show me any.

I imagine this could be root for interesting discussion as I am sure a lot of people will disagree with other people's worst picks.

 

 

Seriously, what's the worst release you own (digital or otherwise) ... ?

I went to a thrift store a few months ago and saw a wacked out LP of what looked like a compilation of Québec comedy tracks or something like that. It was a very bizarre looking, so I bought it for 50 cents or whatever. I get home and pull the record out and it was a Greatful Dead album inside. That's the worst album I've ever purchased.

Nah, you're a wee child who can't wait for official release. Embarrassing. Shove your privilege.

lol, uh-oooh ....

 

The album that inspired me to create this topic was actually Pan Sonic & Alan Vega - Endless - but I wouldn't say it is THE WORST I own. It's just one that disappointed me so much when I first heard it, and I keep trying to get into it every two years or so but turn it off after 2 tracks. I really don't get what they were going for with this one.

 

edit: okay re-listening, and this might BE the worst I own. Even the track names are shit.

I quite like Medeski Martin & Wood, so a year or 2 ago I bought Farmer's Reserve from the used bargain bin on a whim. Insipid free jazz turd. Need to get rid of this along with a few dozen other worthless CDs.

worst album I have is Belladonnakillz - As If

I've only heard one track by them on the Eyelicker compilation but it's so atrocious that I couldn't imagine a full album.

As of last week, Donker Mag by Die Antwoord. I should've known something was fishy when they kept delaying its release. I should never have started a thread on it to begin with. With the exception of Ugly Boy, DM ended up being a major disappointment for me.

To keep it real and analog, I'm gonna start posting to WATMM by writing my posts in fountain pen on hemp paper, putting them in bottles, and throwing them into the ocean.

I've got a Cex cd sitting somewhere I picked up for $1 for charity. I couldn't make it more than about a minute into the first few tracks, promptly removed it and have never opened it again.

Some shitty 90s trance compilation probably. Can't be bothered to dig through my CDs. I had a CD of some 90s gregorian techno but I don't think I have that anymore.. Oh man, and the Deep Forest album. Aaarr..

probably something i got pre internet - where i can preview before i buy.

I have to say tho, sometimes when you revisit older albums you used to dislike - you'd be surprised at how your tastes have change

 

I've actually sold & gave away a lot of older stuff i don't listen to anymore though.

RJD2 - the third hand.

Some songs I made with my fingers and electronics. In the process of making some more. Hopefully.

LAKS (with the Korn K). 6 tracks from a local top-40-world-star wannabe. I only listened to one of the tracks, and that was a couple years ago, but it's safe to assume it's the worst recording I own, physically
