Ok. I get it. You like this so called "experimentalism". I don't think there's anything wrong with enjoying the musical aspects that evoke emotions more than the pompous ideas of experimentation though.
BTW I almost expected elderly PA snobs would get butthurt over me calling out their electronic trash. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Edited by Hrychu - February 11 2024 at 16:38 |

There are a few (in case somebody is looking for new worst albums ever): Edited by Lewian - February 11 2024 at 16:28 |

I do like this one. And I'm not alone. When Ciani played in Bologna in 2022 it was sold out within days (and chances are the 1975 one is her most famous album). Can't explain it, it's like always with music, you get some stuff that some others totally don't, and the other way round. I have no issue with Thrakattak either, by the way, but Ciani beats that one by some distance. Go experimentalism!

I'd have to say it was King Crimsons THRAKATTAK. Not sure if I spelled it right. I'm in the minority and I love King Crimson, But to me it was just awful. Barclay James Harvest Had one I couldn't stand as well. |

I enjoy that album a lot. May have been the first TD album I purchased just around the time I started to take an interest in them. It's all mostly short form and honestly I think LA Streethawk and Yellowstone Park are 2 of the best tracks they ever recorded. Turned out to be Johannes Schmoelling's last album with TD. After that they did the excellent Underwater Sunlight and okayish Tyger but then a massive long fallow period until their 00's masterpeice Purgatorio. Valentine Wheels is likely the worst thing I've heard from them. Cheesy horrible 90's synths and no creativity to speak of. A real low. (IMO)

Not many female artist seem to venture into this area of music. I havent heard it but probably felt similar things about Vangelis - Invisible Connections album ( I think that's a Berlin School inspired album). Absolutely hated it when it came out but now really like it. To be fair Ciani has produced some good music although mostly within the realms of 'New Age'. I own Neverland on CD and that was released on Peter Baumann's Private Music label back in the 80's along with the likes of Patrick O'Hearn and Yanni. |

The first three albums by the Swans. They're all rubbish.

With the exception of The Lockdown Sessions and This is Not a Drill, which are both solid gold 5-star masterpieces for me.

OK. This is imao THE WORST album I've ever heard in my life.
Suzanne Ciani - Buchla Concerts 1975 40 minutes of boring, uninspired and obnoxious synth noodling without any melody, rhytm, compositional qualities. 🤮 I thought Berlin School electronic music was yucky. But this is horrible. 👎 I couldn't listen to the whole A side. I skipped around waiting for good music to happen but no. And yes, I'm serious. This is basically as if someone was sitting with their synth, trying to find/sculpt the right patch for some song, for 40 minutes, taped it, and slapped on an album. Done! It's EXPERIMENTAL! Experimental ≠ good. Keep that in mind. Edited by Hrychu - January 08 2024 at 01:25 |

By my standards Roger Waters made a pretty solid run at this accolade in 2023.

I've had a change of heart since I last posted in this thread. Máscaras urbanas has really grown on me.

The Allman Brothers Band- Brothers And Sisters
Definitely not to the level of their first and second albums nor is the excitement, energy level or creativity anywhere close to THE FILLMORE EAST. Weather Report- Mr. Gone I have many Weather Report cds that I love, but this was a complete letdown for me. Tangerine Dream- Le Parc Not a terribly done album, but a total letdown compared to what they released in the 70s and early 80s. Argent- All Together Now This album is boring The Beatles- Let It Be I like three songs. It's like they ran out of fuel. The Rolling Stones- Goats Head Soup This is boring and it annoys me Pete Sinfield- Still Very disappointing Jade Warrior- Eclipse/Fifth Element. It was a total letdown for me when compared to their other albums. Procol Harum- Somethings Magic or Something tragic? It was a direct turn off. I have everything leading up to this album. I like all of it. Hawkwind- Insomnia Difficult for me to enjoy |

It’s cringeworthy, but I love it. My favorite post-MP DT album. |

Agreed, how dare they not shred the b*****d thing to death and instead concentate on melody. Idiots!
