I just asked myself what is the worst album here in the progarchives? There are many lists for the best albums but no list for the worst album, so which one do you know? -------------

Triumvirat's "Russian Roulette" is a strong candidate. If you hate yourself, try to listen it with your CD player at the "repeat" mode. Nothing recommends this album: all songs are awful (both lyrics and melodies), the playing is uninspired (J. Fritz was a great keyboard player, but you'll won't guess it by this album - and Arno Steffen is the worst singer I've ever heard), an ugly cover - overall, is a genuine masterpiece of bad music. ------------- "He's a man of the past and one of the present" PETER HAMMILL |

| Piper at the Gates of Dawn. I hate it more than Brain Salad Surgery and that's saying something. Both make Love Beach sound almost tolerable. |

Ah, finally....someone else who appears to hate this abomination as much as I do.
I'll throw in Phish - The Siket Disc. I love the band, but this is unbearable. |

I disagree completely, but the comment is really funny. Some albums I hate are the whole series of Tubular Bells (except the original, of course, that I love) ------------- [IMG]http://www.belderrain.es/GIFs/tora.gif"> |

For me is MIA - Cornonstipicus. Its the first album that I actually
hate, but that whas when I was starting with prog so I think I was
being to hard with it at that time. Maybe I should hear it again to see
what do I think now of it. -------------

Rush-Grace Under Pressure....AWFUL! The only Rush disc I'll gladly give under 3 stars to. Anything by Slipknot, Rage Against The Machine, Korn, or Nirvana. ------------- Some world views are spacious, and some are merely spaced... |

RATM, I thought, sucked ass. There was no melody in their "songs", and all I heard was squealing and screeching. I think Morello's playing has improved IMMENSELY now that he's with Audioslave. I thought Nirvana sucked ass too. The others don't make music. They make noise. IMO, natch. ------------- Some world views are spacious, and some are merely spaced... |

Some interesrting choices. Of course I definitely disagree about VdGG's "World Record". Not sure what my vote would go to. Perhaps "Gilles Zeitschiff" by the Cosmic Jokers. This album could have been better were it not for the incredibly naive and childish lyrics. I really love some of the other albums of the Cosmic Jokers, but "Gilles Zeitschiff" gives me indigestion.
