I have been fighting my way through the "1,001 albums you must listen to before you die' list, and there have been some truly terrible albums.

New York Dolls, debut album

Brian Eno, my life in the bush of ghosts

Marquee Moon, television

Slade, slayed?

Sugarcube, life's too good

Barry Adamson, Oedipus Schmoedipus

Animal collective, Merriweather Post Pavilion

Heaven 17, Penthouse And Pavement

And the worst album I have ever heard on my life, king of garbage music Lou Reed and his garbage band of notmusic and pretention: The velvet underground, The Velvet Underground & Nico

Damn! I haven't gotten any of those yet, but I think we might need to fight a little when I do! I'll save this and get back to you!

new 1 star album, 461 Ocean Boulevard by Eric Clapton

[–] MorrisonMotel6@lemm.ee 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Really? Wow.

New one for me: treasure by the cocteau twins

[–] BigBananaDealer@lemm.ee 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

i can see why thatd be 1 star for someone, i thought that album had some good songs though

I've only rated the velvet underground and nico album one star because I personally don't consider it actual music. Because of that, I have a hard time rating music I "just don't like" as one star because it's recognizable to me as music. So, I rated this one two stars.

I was surprised to see you rated a Clapton album so poorly because I like him (musically) quite a bit. We have really different tastes, and I think it's cool to know there is stuff that absolutely is not for me that is a five star album for someone else
