Good call. Think we did something like this before but it's worth doing again...

The only band I can think of that's made an absolutely perfect album and a perfect zero is Virgin Steele. The Marriage of Heaven and Hell Pt. 2 is phenomenal power metal, but Ghost Harvest - Vintage II is irredeemable shit.

I also agree "The Wall" is not very good (but I like "Comfortably Numb").

Dream Theater, Tool, and Queensryche all bore me to death, though I love classic British prog.

I dunno, to be honest. Late-career Eminem is really, really bad. I really struggle with Muse. Mostly, though, I just find stuff uninteresting or cringeworthy or mildly irritating, as opposed to offensive or intolerable. If I'm not into something, after a while I just turn it off; there's no point in persevering with something I don't like when there's so much stuff I do (or will) enjoy listening to.

I tend not to go in search of albums I'm likely to dislike, so the worst album I've heard from beginning to end is The Wall. I have tried to sit through a couple of Tool albums and just could not manage it, though, so maybe one of those.

I'm not a big Kanye fan, but I kinda like that album. It's got some cheesy moments, but I really like the spiritual basis of the music. It seems authentic, at least.

Sorry 😨

Just meant it as a good jab.

I haven't heard the Vorak album, and I'd prefer to keep it that way.

I heard that album a few months ago after seeing it on a tweet by that Best of RYM account. It is complete and utter garbage. Like, there is no possible way the artist took it seriously. And, yeah, with the Nazi shit it's covered in it should never be resurfaced.

30:15 to about 38:55 is, I think, one whole song. It's essentially a cliff notes version of the album, and it's kind of incredible.

Yeah, there are some bad ones out there, but I'm feeling something special towards this one. Fred Durst sucks, but I'd say there are even worse bands that he inspired.

And CryingGame, is the Satan one an album by these guys? Because I've only just scratched the surface here. They've apparently got loads of horrifying stuff.

Anybody remember theJoj? Didn't he used to always champion the album Masturbate in the Praise of Black Satan? Remember the band Anal Cunt? Or Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water? I guess none of those supported nazism, so not as bad thematically...

I'm working on a worst albums chart right now, and I've got a lot of albums to add to the site if I'm going to complete it. I've already got two Brokencyde albums. The three worst bands I can think of are Daddy's Boy, Brokencyde and Dot Dot Curve, and all of them have at least two albums that have no redeeming qualities.

As for the above bands, I have little interest in the latter two but an album with the words "masturbate" and "satan" involved just seem to stupid to even bother with.
