OMG!!!

Maybe you don't know that Who Dunnit has been billed by 100% of critics and Genesis' fans as the worst Genesis' song ever... and in fact it is.




So what? He and I like it. Stuff the critics.

I don't mind Abacab either. I actually really like Abacab, Me and Sarah Jane, and Dodo. (love Dodo, actually).

Who Dunnit? is just a crappy filler song, and I'm sure was more comical than serious when they were writing it. A lot of the music is much more pop than prog, but those three aforementioned songs are great crossovers. Thumbs Up

so you already consider all these albums as very bad ...

I won't vote because I don't know the PFM album (and I don't care for PFM post 76 anyway) and Magma( I don't listen to zeuhl).

I like a lot of the albums you mentioned there - Camel's, Jethro Tull's (Under Wraps is their weakest effort IMO),  King Crimson's especially. I like Love Beach in small dozes (I rarely listen to it but I enjoy it more than The Works, both of them that is and anything they released in the 80s - ELPowell and the two 90s albums they did). The only problem I have with Abacab is Whodunnit but that song is a bad joke anyway. As for Big Generator from Yes, I like it a lot, I consider it better than Union and Open your Eyes which i find to be Yes's least inspired works.

These are all by pre-89 artists; ergo, they are not the worst of the worst. It is absolutely impossible for these legends to do anything resembling "worst" when the world is littered with inane, hateful and utterly meritless smut produced by braindead post-89 deceivers.

Say "NO!" to new music and say "YES!" to pre-89 heroes!

I'm not so extremist, but you're not totally wrong...I think there are good exceptions after '89, too.
Worst has to be intended as the less good of those bands (synonymous of worst I think, anyway). Not absolutely bad. There are things like GTR for this.

I agree. But the exceptions are very few.

Indeed. I can't believe this is happening to tFC (even though I accidentally voted for it as it was the best for me).

I can't believe that TFC is more voted than Camera Camera, indeed.

I'd better listen to Camera Camera 2456 times than a single minute of Final Cut, sorry.
After all, there's Ukraine Ways.

When I revived this poll I did it just to make Love Beach the worst.  Some clever dick has voted again for TFC.
