In topic - still nothing ? No one wants Worst 100 albums list ? Note that for example IMDB has such a list. And when listing countries by GDP on wikipedia, I always look first for the poorest ones (just out of curiosity).
It's simply in human nature, to look who's more poor than you. They say that tabloid magazines are amongst most sold ones. Who knows, but it proves something. People like dirt. Yeah, some people (like me) are holding it, behaving formally but ... you know.

Maybe if we make it 'worst albums by bands you actually like' we might get a better (or at least more objective) list.
I'd nominate Merci by Magma and Electric Cafe by Kraftwerk.

Oh god, Merci  I would add Le Orme's "Venerdi" and "Biancaneve" (the same awful album, re-released under a new name incase you managed to avoid buying it the first time). Apparently the album inbetween ("Orme") is even worse, but I haven't the heart to listen to it. Also, "Time-Line" by Renaissance. What is it with great 70s bands humiliating themselves to try and fit into the 80s like this? =F=

I'd get a huge kick out of a top 100 worst list.
It must be done.

Wakeman's "Rock N Roll Prophet" should be high.

Even the worst albums out there have good things about them... Especially bad albums made by good artists; they cant help but have at least a few good things in their music...
What I want to find is a band that consistently releases one-star material! XD
Too bad I'm not a PA-certified artist...

All you need is to add a "by lowest rating" option to the search engine. People here tend to be pretty polite though, for many years the lowest rating is a 3.5 or so.

Well, however botched or uninspired--it's still prog.

Well, such a list would only fuel my futile quest to reconcile some of the later Genesis albums....

If anyone has a sincere interest, and can promise a review if given the opportunity, I have a candidate that might as well make a quick rise to the very top (or bottom if you like) on such a list.
PM me if you have an itch for some real bad prog ;-)
