That being said, I've been pretty fortunate.

I've been on the fence about picking up OMII for quite some time now...
 
What qualities make Part II worse than the original?
 
Not having Chris DeGarmo around has to be a factor, I'm sure.

YES! God yes! Oh... the worst album i've ever heard in my entire life. Well, at least the worst prog.
1 Chronicles 13:7-9

Then David and all Israel played music before God with all their might, with singing, on harps, on stringed instruments, on tambourines, on cymbals, and with trumpets.

Wayyyyyy back in my teen years, after thinking Emerson Lake and Powell was mindblowingly awesome, I stumbled across the latest ELPish incarnation "3" which you'll remember was Emerson, Palmer and Robert Berry. Thinking it was going to be just as great as EL Powell, I bought the vinyl--remember vinyl kids?--and biked home asap plopped it onto the turntable and ughhhh. What a dissapoinment--poppy, with the exception of desde la vida (sp?). Ever since Asia and 90125 prog groups were convinced they could do the next "owner of a lonely heart" if they just tried. Never really worked after that.... Too bad EL Powell never put out another album.

I've heard so many prog albums as of late that I can only remember the most recent ones being terrible.

I'm inexperienced with the neo-prog genre, I gave Carptree - Man Made Machine a listen, it was really bad.

I'm not so sure if the album is considered "prog" or not but I really wasn't a huge fan of Kansas' "In the Spirit of Things."
 
I love a lot of melodic/arena/AOR stuff but even in that realm, the album was really lacking. Didn't like it at all.

I suppose I should add something as I started this...

I have never bought a prog album I really hated, mostly because I read the reviews first and preview a song or two if I can.

What prog album (if any) do you regret spending time listening/buying?
