Scream Dream, Free For All and others around that time period from Ted Nugent, most anything from Nazereth and Born Again from Sabbath. As far as prog it would have to be 666 from Aphrodites Child. Awful.

Metal Machine Music is a good album! I quite enjoy it. The worst things I've heard have typically been from power metal bands like Stratovarius and H.I.M. and Nightwish. I loathe the Eagles as well.

Those are all fantastic albums.
imo, of course.... but still, they are all highly rated here and abroad.

Not sure Metal Machine Music qualifies as it was indeed a finger to the record company to shut them up ... he delivered the two albums and case closed ... no more buggery from those folks. And he did it in fine fashion. Strangely enough, something almost similar is Fripp and Eno's No Pussyfooting, and we like that album ... go figure!
As for Curved Air's album, we gonna have to lock you up with Vivaldi and then expose you to Vivaldi with Canons in the live version and then ... Tympani for the Devil (SDT) and then ... Dance Macabre (Esperanto) and then ... so you can have some fun with it a little more. Listen to it again today ... it's not a bad album, though it has a lot of pop music, but there is nice stuff as well, but it was not exactly an easy one to appreciate because Sonja's voice was not exactly easy to listen to ... but got better.
Worst album ever? ... progressive or not? ... goodness ... I could name 10 Elton John albums that I think are over rated and full of it ... I really thought that some of the Willie Nelson albums were above and beyond the call of reason for bad recording, even if he is a purist and doesn't like all the studio stuff! ... but all in all, the worst albums I have ever heard, have been a lot of rap albums that are just ... ridiculous in my book! At least in progressive we try to be somewhat original ... but I am not sure another rhyme qualifies!

Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

Wasn't there an album just of the words Elvis spoke between songs at concerts? That sounds pretty bad.
I sort of like the idea of Metal Machine Music, or whatever, on the other hand.

I think we should just close this thread now before it detiororates even further. |
We can of course close if it turns ugly but after it s everyone responbilities to keep the thread a minimum serious.
I don't see why this thread is worse than "prog best album" or "Whatever band best album"

what about rather going into most disappointing albums? I mean, f.e. the wall is not the worst album ever, but it was the most disappointing PF album for me (when listening to them in chronological order)

Speaking just about rock bands:
If we are talking about bands of which we do like some of their other releases, then St. Anger wins easily.
If not, there are lots of bands which I despise and wouldn't buy any of their albums (Limp Bizkit and Good Charlotte come to my mind right now)

I can't think of anything that really qualifies.
Even albums that don't go well with fans of a band still have their support. Even if it's just from the parents and girlfriends of the involved musicians.
Anyway, out of my own vaults I would select Black Sabbath's Seventh Star or Rainbow's Difficult To Cure
