The Mars Volta's bad albums are better than most of the stuff in my library ... (deloused is the worst for sure)

I agree Smile
While maybe not all their albums are great, "We're Only in it For The Money" makes up for any bad ones.

Don't like quartet-Genesis?
 
Back in the '80s I wasn't into KW's Computer World, but now I love it. The synth timbres, as usual, are impeccable.

I wonder if we could sustain a bands that can do no right thread?  I suppose we could start with Mr. Bungle just for having Bungle in their name. LOL

It's kind of funny.  I got the GTR album when it came out thinking these two Steves, this is going to have some good prog on it.  Haven't heard it in years but as I recall it may have had a couple of good instrumentals on it.

The Beatles can absolutely do nothing wrong for me.  They're my favorite band and I love every album of theirs.
 
Led Zeppelin also stayed great through all their albums.  Though "Presence" and "ITtOD" were noticeably weaker than the previous albums I still really like them.
 
As you can guess by my username I love Pink Floyd to death.  I really don't hate the Gilmour era like a lot of people seem to.  Granted they were nowhere near as good as they were with Roger, and they did have some clunkers ("Dogs of War" bores me to tears).  But they had enough good songs between the two that I will always like them, no matter what.
 
Genesis comes very close.  Their '70s material was fantastic and in the '80s they knew how to write good pop songs that were musically interesting and retained prog influences; a lot of people seem to forget that.  They would make the cut if not for the god-awful travesty that is named "Calling All Stations".  I really despise that album.  There's a brief, glimmering moment of hope every so often but the album doesn't deliver on that.  It's just bad...and it makes me appreciate "We Can't Dance" a lot more LOL

I can't say Rush completely, since I don't have Feedback or Snakes & Arrows, but no album is unlistenable and each has at least one or two stellar tracks.

S&A is amazing.....Far Cry, Armor & Sword, Workin Them Angels...those songs are beasts!!
 
Feedback if you like classic rock, Rush do those songs a huge amount of justice.

I can't think of a single band where I like every one of their albums. Certainly, Tull was remarkably consistent with their first 12 albums (13 if you count Living in the Past), but albums like A and Under Wraps were simply dreadful. Likewise Floyd had a remarkable run, sandwiched inbetween several mediocre psychedelica releases and the terrible Final Cut. Zeppelin had a good thing going until In Through the Out Door, which is awful. The Beatles? Most are flawless, but their first two or three albums are only good for nostalgia's sake and I could live without hearing Let it Be.
 
Nope. Not a single band. I am so jaded.
