11.05.09 | Needs more Thrice. |
Satellite
11.05.09 | I agree with 4 and 5. The new Mastodon and Fall of Troy are definitely the biggest disappointments in my opinion. |
ninjuice
11.05.09 | I did forget Thrice dangit. Guess I'll change 6. |
chambered89
11.05.09 | the resistance is really disappointing |
Masochist
11.05.09 | Can't say #2 was a disappointment for me at all, but #4 was. Interestingly enough, I actually really like "Uprising." |
ninjuice
11.05.09 | Yeah Masochist I love 2-3 songs from all of these except 1. Uprising is one of them. |
chambered89
11.05.09 | so did i. exogensis really didn't strike a chord with me like it did with some ppl |
rasputin
11.05.09 | but the gallery is the best melodeath album every recorded therefore logically how could anyone of these be a disapointemnt? |
AtavanHalen
11.05.09 | Good list, man. I agree. |
gafel
11.05.09 | A Beautiful Lie is great. I reject your comparison. |
theacademy
11.05.09 | if any other band released 6, it would be their "Vhiessu"
biggest disappointments for me: say anything, cobra starship (thought they were turning it around), muse
5 shouldn't be a disappointment, and the fact that you would consider "Empire State of Mind" worthy of more than 1 listen astounds me...what a horrible phenomenon this song has brought upon us...lets take a classic Nas song, let Jigga change the words around a bit, and waste Alicia Keys' supreme talent on a forgettable chorus... |
MentalityOfA
11.05.09 | ...
Not they're best, but it is great. |
MentalityOfA
11.05.09 | The Thrice album is a 3 at best. |
ninjuice
11.05.09 | changed the words around a little? really? |
AtavanHalen
11.05.09 | Empire State of Mind =/= NY State of Mind |
Captain North
11.05.09 | Oh, good I wasn't the only one dissapointed by 6. |
ameypv
11.05.09 | id add marduk's 09 in there |
Groink
11.05.09 | 6 grew on me. The rest didn't. |
theacademy
11.05.09 | yea i went there |
ninjuice
11.05.09 | NY State of Mind and Empire State of Mind share nothing except similar titles. The lyrics aren't similar AT ALL and the beats hardly are either. |
BigTuna
11.05.09 | 6 is their best imo. A culmination of all their previous work into one fantastic record. To each their own. |
bloc
11.05.09 | good list |
jrowa001
11.05.09 | 3 was actually an improvement, maybe youre just missing something. 6 is good, but yeah not great. |
Hollier
11.05.09 | 4 is a huge disappointment, 6 is a bit of a disappointment but still great. 1 isnt a disappointment cos i expected it to be average anyway. The others i havent listened to |
Cerbyrus
11.05.09 | 4 was awful, and a huge disappointment. |
Smug
11.05.09 | cerbyrus's mom was a disappointment |
chambered89
11.05.09 | c'mon 6 wasn't even trying. i wouldn't say it was a disappointment |
PuddlesPuddles
11.05.09 | I'd also add Third Eye Blind, even though it wasn't horrible, it can be called it next to their other albums.
And I don't know, but Porcupine Tree might be on my dissapointment list. 2009 was THE year of disappointments.
I just wouldn't agree with Sci-Fi Crimes being one though. I liked that. |
EVedder27
11.05.09 | Agree with 3. And in terms of Empire State of Mind, I hear the song 7 times a day since I live in NY and it is incredibly annoying. |
Masochist
11.05.09 | I'm actually surprised BtBaM isn't on here; a lot of people didn't like it (then again, maybe you're like myself and just aren't that big of a fan...). |
PuddlesPuddles
11.05.09 | Oh, and Fall of Troy. |
Inveigh
11.05.09 | Call me crazy, but I liked 1. It took a few listens to grow on me, but it's just not the same record that they've released the last couple times out. This one's more about song writing than riffs and breakdowns.
The rest of these I can agree with, although I wasn't so disappointed by 6 (even if it's not as good as their previous work).
I would put Mastodon on here too. |
ninjuice
11.05.09 | Never liked BTBAM. Rogers' scream is terrible and if you're gonna write 20 minute songs I don't like em sounding like that.
Haven't listened to much Fall of Troy yet.
Some people might say Regina Spektor but Far is the first album I got and it's in my top 5 now. |
BigTuna
11.05.09 | I don't get all the hate for Far. It received a fair number of negative reviews, but I think it's excellent. Like the review here says, Regina can do no wrong. |
theacademy
11.05.09 | Fall of Troy is disappointing but people made it sound dreadful...its not worse than "The Resistance"
Sci-Fi Crimes is actually really good, but i understand people growing out of chevelle's sound
6 is wintastic
Surprised nobody brought up Daisy, which is still excellent, but i don't know how it lives up to the hype for it
Also surprised: nobody put "crossing the rubicon" on here...i think its a solid album but so vastly inferior to "Living in America" and "Dying to Say this to You" that it might qualify as a disappointment |
ckypro3
11.05.09 | 3 was the best album yet by them. 5 and 6 are right on |
ninjuice
11.05.09 | I would love to understand what makes Sci-Fi Crimes supposedly great. |
ninjacat11
11.21.09 | 4 was a disappointment, but I like Uprising and the Exogenesis Orchestra.
Mastodon wasn't a disappointment to me. In fact, I think Crack the Skye is what convinced me to look up Mastodon. |
tombits
11.21.09 | new Fall of Troy was absolutely horrible. |
