Albums I Don't Tell People I Like
I guess you could call them guilty pleasures. |
| 1 |  | Staind
Break The Cycle
Where many of the albums from this genre and this time period are just
laughably cheesy, Break The Cycle avoided some of the more annoying
cliches of nu-metal (for example, crossing with rap). But other cliches, like
whining for instance, Aaron Lewis made it his habit to exploit to their
absolute maximum. To many, this album would sound like a guy trying his
very hardest to be sad. For me, for some reason, these songs stuck
around as more than relics of a past annoying trend. |

Infest
It is very, very important that you (even though I don't know you)
recognize that INFEST is the album I am mentioning here. Every single
other thing this band ever did is puke. But this album has some pretty cool
riffs in my opinion. Even if "Coby Dick" is often comically stupid in the lyrics
department. |
| 3 |  | Genesis
Abacab
There is no excuse for liking Genesis. |
| 4 |  | Bush
Golden State
Maybe I should have called this list, "Catchy Things By Bands I Completely
Don't Respect." |
| 5 |  | Coldplay
A Rush Of Blood To The Head
Know how I know you're gay? |
| 6 |  | Fleetwood Mac
Rumours

| 7 | | Gin Blossoms
Congratulations... I'm Sorry
I dunno what it is...maybe it's the guy's voice. He sounds like he's about to
suggest that "it hasn't been your day or week or month, or even your
yeeeeeaaar!" But still, there's enough R.E.M. in here to be some catchy
shit. |
| 8 |  | Mudvayne
Lost And Found
This album is actually great. I love the rhythms. However, I totally
understand why everyone hates Mudvayne, and I agree that the albums
that came after this are no good. |
| 9 |  | Earthsuit
Kaleidoscope Superior
Christian gangsta-rap pop dancehall or something. Go figure. |
| 10 |  | Zao
The Funeral Of God
Dunno Zao's plan....to convert us to Christians by like uh.... nope, don't
know Zao's plan. But this stuff's kinda like the heavier Underoath songs. I
dig. |
