Mine are:
King Crimson - Lizard Rush - Vapour Trails and Dream Theatre - Systematic Chaos don't think very highly of them myself. What about your least favourite albums? |

Personally I think selling them would be much wiser.

Although I agree with fight club, that way you make some money AND it's better for the environment. I can see this thread being closed down by admin. ------------- Would you like to watch TV, or get between the sheets, or contemplate the silent freeway, would you like something to eat? |

Ha, Ha, ha, ha very good Fight Club, no comment.
Anyway anything with The Doors or Bob Dylan, i can't stand these two bands/musician, totaly desaster for me.

Exactly... It is a negative thread with no other purpose than bashing albums one doesn't like. Personally, I like Lizard quite a lot (except for the vocals), and think Vapor Trails is much better than it usually gets credit for. If I had to think about burning albums, I would choose something quite different anyway. |

Honestly though, I can't really think of any albums relating to prog that are bad enough that I'd want to BURN them. Think about it. Doesn't Nickelback deserve the honor of burning much more than Rush would?

| I actually agree with the Vapor Trails sentiment. As a fan of Rush, I just can't describe how much I dislike this album. |

If you mean: the worst from the best, then I'll tell you:
Blind Guardian - Nightfall in middle-earth
Gentle Giant - In a glass house

so much disappointment. . . so little space in this little box to write. . .
i never really totally throw something out if i dont like it for a while and say i hate it or want to burn it. probably 50% of my top favs bands AND albums grew on me after i got turned off at first and/or debated having a pyrotechnic display in the back yard.
but wasTormato bad or what?

Not everybody. I lurves me some "Lizard". It contains, IMO, one of Jon Anderson's greatest moments as a vocalist. (I don't know if it's just me, but it sounds like his voice slightly deepens here and there on "Prince Rupert Awakes". Same thing on "No Opportunity Necessary, No Experience Needed" from Yes's "Time and a Word" album) Definitely an underrated KC gem. ANYWAY, my least favorite albums: "Discipline" - King Crimson "We Can't Dance" - Genesis "90125" - Yes "Talk" - Yes "Tormato" - Yes (actually, this isn't a BAD album, it's just that they were unsure of themselves here, and they opted not to go with Eddie Offord as producer, which made a major impact on how the album sounded, of course) "...And Then There Were Three..." - Genesis (again, this isn't an entirely bad album, but the three men were unsure what to do after Steve Hackett left, so they just said "screw it" and slapped this thing together) |

| I have to say that I can't listen to anything by the Beatles. Maybe "Get Back" at a push. Their early stuff was complete nonsense ie. She Loves You Yea Yea Yea. If anyone came out with that now, they would be rubbished by all and sundry. |
