12.24.14 | Though none of these albums are bad, they are albums I had a higher expectation for and didn't deliver. |
VinVal
12.24.14 | Nice |
Uranium
12.24.14 | number 10 for sure. lame reunion. |
Uranium
12.24.14 | i honestly couldn't and wouldn't expect 2 to be good on any level. |
DrGonzo1937
12.24.14 | 10 blew the big one. |
Faraudo
12.24.14 | You had higher expectations for the Linkin Park record? How on earth is that possible? 3 of 5 singles released prior sucked major ass, and the best songs were non-singles, released with the album. Maybe you have your reasons, but i'd say that it surpassed my expectatios, mainly because of the horrible singles, most of them at least. |
ADanceReturns
12.24.14 | 10 is awesome smh |
Uranium
12.24.14 | it was a major letdown for those expecting something familiar to tmv though |
Dodenakker
12.24.14 | I would also add Killer Be Killed, although not bad.. it's just a bit boring. |
AliW1993
12.24.14 | Rave Tapes isn't a record that's going to wow anyone, but I was still pretty surprised by the largely negative reception here.
I wasn't overly enamored with Once More 'Round the Sun either, but seeing its songs played live really sold that record to me. |
Titan
12.24.14 | '10 Disappointing Albums From 2014'
Perhaps......but it's the best 2014 list I've seen so far! |
Artuma
12.24.14 | if you thought 2, 6 and 8 aren't bad then how can they be disappointing? |
Lowder91bird
12.24.14 | The new At the Gates was the biggest disappointment of the year for me. |
Artuma
12.24.14 | agalloch, pianos and wittr tbh |
AliW1993
12.24.14 | Foo Fighters, The Gaslight Anthem and Manchester Orchestra were probably the records which disappointed me the most. |
sonictheplumber
12.24.14 | you didndt know lp would be gay already? |
ChoccyPhilly
12.24.14 | Alt-J in my opinion |
jmh886
12.24.14 | the hunting party was great |
AcidCaravan
12.24.14 | I was curious to lend an ear to the new Primus one...always loved that band, and even if their previous one ["Green Naugahyde"] wasn't a masterpiece like their old records, it was a pretty decent listen to me in the end. About the rest of yr list, well, Linkin Park always sucked IMO. And the only Foo Fighters records I really dug (and I dug them a lot) were 1995's debut and 1997's "The Colour and the Shape" so....Oh and I agree on the Mogwai one too. Cheers |
TheSupernatural
12.24.14 | 5 was most disappointing for me |
ArsMoriendi
12.24.14 | Agreed on 4 being disappointing. |
MrSirLordGentleman
12.24.14 | 2 was everything but dissapointing, I think most people can accept it was better than expected |
DrGonzo1937
12.24.14 | 'Rave Tapes isn't a record that's going to wow anyone, but I was still pretty surprised by the largely negative reception here.'
A huge decline in quality, dude. |
Artuma
12.24.14 | mogwai has been declining with every album since, uh, their debut so |
DrGonzo1937
12.24.14 | Disagreed. But they've been losing momentum the last couple of releases. |
StallionMang
12.24.14 | 10 kicks butt u fools |
DrGonzo1937
12.24.14 | Doesn't suck, but it certainly isn't for me. |
JokineAugustus
12.24.14 | How were you disappointed by 2? |
thacoconut94
12.24.14 | Slipknot wasn't disappointing considering all hope is gone was the last, it was a good record |
zaruyache
12.24.14 | 3 so hard. |
granitenotebook
12.24.14 | Green Language (Rustie) was a major letdown |
DrGonzo1937
12.25.14 | How were you disappointed by 2?
It was an album that tried way too hard and nothing sounds refreshing. |
TomorrowIsTuesday
01.01.15 | why would you have any good expectations for new music? |
JJKeys
01.01.15 | 9 is great you shut your face |
Totengott
01.01.15 | Agalloch was a disappointment as well. |
AngryNeighbor
01.01.15 | there was a ton of disappointments |
Gnome7
01.01.15 | I'll be one on the Agalloch train as well. It's crazy to hear one of my favorite bands become so damn boring and uninspired |
AngryNeighbor
01.01.15 | yeah and I've felt that many times past year.
nevertheless some awesome stuff got released. |
Uranium
01.01.15 | I still remember the depression Agalloch caused far and wide with the release of their latest album |
TalonsOfFire
01.01.15 | Agreed on 2, 7, and 8. 9 was decent and from what I've heard from 5 it isn't as bad as people say it is |
Tunaboy45
01.01.15 | 3, 4, and 8 weren't bad, 7 was pretty good and 9 was fantastic |
DrGonzo1937
01.02.15 | None of these are bad guys. Just some aspects ruined a higher expectation I had. |
earlygrave
01.03.15 | I enjoyed Antemasque, but I agree also had higher expectations. |
DrGonzo1937
01.03.15 | I suppose it's hard for me not to compare this to TMV, even though they are completely different. |
earlygrave
01.03.15 | I have the same problem, for a debut though is a solid rock album and has some catchy ass tunes. You have a favorite song of the record? |
KingdomOfTyrant
01.03.15 | 9 is masterpiece lol |
DoctorDoom
01.03.15 | Agree hard with three. |
InFlamesWeThrash666
01.03.15 | Do u even Siren Charms :] |
DrGonzo1937
01.04.15 | 9 was probably the biggest disappointment of 2014. |
RadicalEd
01.04.15 | Alt-J, Gaslight Anthem
But 6 hard yes. Rave Tapes was terrible. |
insomniac15
01.04.15 | Linkin Park, Mogwai and Foo Fighters released quite weak records indeed. I want The Mars Volta back goddamnit!!!!!!!!
I found the Mastodon record quite good, I wouldn't call it a disappointment. |
jtswope
01.04.15 | Opeth and Cloud Nothings |
JamieTwort
01.04.15 | Were people really expecting much from 7? I mean it actually surpassed my expectations by being a solid 2.5. |
jtswope
01.04.15 | I haven't even listened to 7 out of bitterness toward its existence, but I feel like if I listened it would be in the 2.5-3 range. |
DrGonzo1937
01.04.15 | Opeth was close to being on this.
As for Floyd, it was never going to be amazing, but I expected a little more. |
