05.30.22 | Lemme hear any more than you can think of. Bonus points for artists who RAISE a full point between albums. |
Trebor.
05.30.22 | Dredg - The Pariah, The Parrot, The Delusion to Chuckles and Mr. Squeezy
A whopping 1.8 drop
|
Vercetti
05.30.22 | Cool idea for a list.
Korn raised a point from Path of Totality (2.0) to Paradigm Shift (3.1). imo Path of Totality is extremely underrated, but I guess a lot of their fans just hate dubstep |

05.30.22 | >The Prodigy (Fat of the Land to Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned)
what the fuck you're right |
JohnnyoftheWell
05.30.22 | Almost Outnumbered ain't bad, but it deserved a full point off tbqh |
parksungjoon
05.30.22 | its no worse than invaders must die |
JohnnyoftheWell
05.30.22 | marginally debatable, but invaders would also have deserved the drop |
Wildcardbitchesss
05.30.22 | Highly Suspect went from sometimes interesting if a little uninspired radio rock with The Boy Who Died Wolf and then completely just shat out the garbage that is MCID. 1.4 avg drop
Queensryche dropped from a 3.8-2.5 with Promised Land to Here in the Now Frontier.
Megadeth had the very mediocre 13 and followed it up with one of the worst “thrash” albums ever with Super Collider. 1.1 drop.
All I can think of atm

furpa
05.30.22 | @Treb DAMN that 1.8 is roughhhh hahaha |

Anyway, the rubbish thirteen was a whole 1.1 better than the abysmal super collider but then they redeemed back up 1.4 with Dystopia |

05.31.22 | 'also the Beatles both ways if you count Yellow Sub, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds (Nocturama) and the Beach Boys 1000 times over if you care remotely about their full discog (lol)'
Morbid Angel's last 3 are 2.8, 1.6, 3.1... so that counts. This must be a lot less common than just dropping a 'full point' in isolation.
I bet there's a ton of artists that fit the original criteria, so now I'm wondering how many 'double drops' there are. |
ReturnToRock

05.31.22 | @Demon I hadn't even considered the possibility of a double drop, shit. If anybody knows of any would love to see it haha |
RabbitInTheGround
05.31.22 | Lil Wayne: The Carter III (3.1) --> Rebirth (1.3) |
JeremiahBullfrog
05.31.22 | Nas's "I Am..." Is dope, as is Eminem's "MMLP2" - "His worst lyrics ever" - wtf?
LP's One More Light is one of the worst songs I have ever heard. |
ArsMoriendi
05.31.22 | Sadly Ween - Quebec (4.2) to La Cucaracha (3.0)
La Cucaracha deserves justice even if it’s only like a 3.5 |
anarchistfish
05.31.22 | "@Demon I hadn't even considered the possibility of a double drop, shit. If anybody knows of any would love to see it haha"
thirty seconds to mars are close. consecutive .8 and .9 drops |
anarchistfish
05.31.22 | coldplay's last 4 albums have been 2.9, 2, 3.1 and 1.9 |
furpa
05.31.22 | @Jeremiah "some of his worst lyrics ever". MMPL2 overall is fine, but there are pockets of it that make me want to kill myself lol and I'll stand by the fact that some of Em's cringiest bars of all time pop up on that record. The opener and closer tracks are dope sure but take your pick from any of the lyrics to like Survival or The Monster, shit is pretty wack. |
furpa
05.31.22 | @anarchist FUCK so close with those Thirty Seconds To Mars albums hahaha |
furpa
07.06.22 | UPDATE: The Velvet Underground with a massive 2.3 point drop between Loaded (4) and Squeeze (1.7). Brutal. Only a 3 year gap between the two as well. |
