In YOUR opinion - the worst album that you own.

Mkay, so I was looking through my iTunes list of albums and everything I see is stuff that I like and listen to on a even-somewhat-regularly-basis. Like most sane people, I don't buy albums that I don't think I'll like. I was wondering what I would consider the worst album that I own and it was a pretty easy contest.

In my earlier days I was a HUGE Motley Crue fan, and I still really love their "mature" period from 1994-1996, and the only two albums from those days are "Generation Swine" (which is fantastic) and "Motley Crue" (which has a grunge sound and a non-Vince Neil singer) - and then I noticed an album that I had not listened to in a long time, so I thought I'd give it a spin.

and then I realized - this is the worst album that I own.

NEW TATTOO - Motley Crue released this album in the early 2000s without Tommy Lee, and it's full of awful songs with terrible lyrics and some of the worst music that I've ever heard. Whether it's the awful repetition of "Punched In The Teeth By Love", the failed cover "White Punks On Dope" or the cheesy trailer trash love song, "New Tattoo" - the album just oozes awfulness. The one redeeming song on the album is somewhat quirky "Porno Star", which is still foiled by poorly written lyrics.

So what about you kind folks?

I got rid of most things I knew I'd not listen to again.. hmm, it would've probably been one of DiMeola's AM radio albums like Soaring Through a Dream or Kiss My Axe or something

No real contest for me... Worst. Ever. (It is a live album, though)

Worst studio?

Psssh, no one even explained why.

I dislike Wake of Poseidon, because when I want to listen to In the Court, I listen to In the Court. The only good song is Cat Food, and it doesn't sound like King Crimson

Really? I got it a couple of days ago - Its not brilliant, but its pretty good

I won't rewrite my review of that one here, but I can sum it up in two words:

"Boring" and "Noisy."

That stupid Misfits album I got this week, American Psycho. 

There are two I keep around just in hopes I'll like them more in time, tied for the "worst" that I own...Dream Theater's Images and Words and Pink Floyd's Division Bell.  I&W was my first DT album, and I haven't bought any more because it really fails to hit me in any good way, and Division Bell is one of several PF albums, I just can't enjoy it very much.

I think I have the movie on VHS though

I have a best of 80's metal two disc set that I wonder why I got. Not counting compilations I might say the ConstruKction of Light maybe... or Bedlam in Goliath.
