I bought BoxCar Racer's debut CD because I've liked Blink-182 since way back in the day of Dude Ranch. Anyway, I also thought 'I feel so' was alright. (why I am defending my actions I don't know!) So anyway, I bought their CD and it is the worst thing I have ever heard in my life from a rock band (see, I didn't rule out pop being worse, lol!)
Also, I remember buying A's Hi-Fi Serious and wanting to cry because it was piss poor compared to their earlier releases.

I bought a garage compilation album last year, to try something different but I couldn't hear a word of it because they sing far too fast.
Its not awful....it's just a bit bland really. I can't listen to it for too long it starts to grate on me. Some of it is catchy, it just doesn't go anywhere.
Incubus - Morning View.
I wanted to like it, I really did. I loved s.c.i.e.n.c.e. and Make Yourself grew on me, but I just can't get into this one at all. His pseudo intellectualism kinda pisses me off too...they don't seem like songs, more 'oh so meaningful' ramblings over music.
I'm sure there are loads more, if I don't like a cd it usually ends up wedged between the wall and my desk or something. I daren't look, I may cry at the sheer amount of crap in my cd collection.
Papa Roach - infest there is a couple of good teacks but then the rest are really lacking.
Sum 41 - All Killer No Filler (boring)
The Strokes - Is this it (title says it all)
Skirtbox - Crouching Squirrel,Hidden Beaver (great title boring album)
Garath Gates and Will Young(nuff said!)
MTV Unplugged (boring)
Me too! I ended up giving it away. Shocking!
I also got radiohead's Kid A. What were they thinking?! I feel their heads were shoved too far up their arses to even consider writing something with a tune. I loved Radiohead's earlier stuff. I know bands change...but really! (Needless to say, I didnt buy Amnesiac!)
I wasnt very impressed with Blur's album (cant remember the name)...the one with Tender, Song 2 and Coffee and TV on. I thought it would be ace because I loved the first albums...but no. Disappointing.
:eek: :eek: They're so cool! They're one of my fave bands, well they became so after I saw them live, I do admit their album was a tad boring towards the end!!!
Don't like the singles (well maybe the Beastie Boy sounding one) but really enjoyed their albums, especially Half Hour of Power.
Each to their own though, I wasn't slating anyone's opinions, just adding my own!
Ditto, to all that.
Tender and Coffee and TV were on 13. That was not a good album. I wanted to like it but it just didn't happen.
Answering the question, I think anthology by alien ant farm was pretty crap, and expected that to be brill.
Used to think the same about Echo Park by Feeder, but I hadn't listened to it properly, listened to it a few times after months of not, and it really grew on me. Feeder are now one of my fave bands, and I'm going to see them live in August at the Reading Festival. Yay!
Me too. It is nice to see someone whose like goes back that far.
Like Deftones I hate Chino's voice!
Me too!
