Disappointments Of 2013

In no particular order, here?s a list of albums that generally fell short of rmy expectations due rto exaggerated hype, misleading promos, bands rbeing a shade (or even parody) of their rformer selves, failing to follow up ra great album, on autopilot, lacking inspiration, failed efforts rto change rtheir sound, laziness in songrwiting or poor production, or in some cases rjust plain rcrap. Most are actually fine objectively, but we know they?re rcapable of more.
