I had a feeling somebody would mention that. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] Strangely enough, the damn album is starting to really grow on me... [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

But I can't comment on the Blaze Bayley Maiden CDs as I have not heard enough from those albums to be informed.

No Prayer I thought was okay. X Factor I loved, even though Blaze is on it. He does sound a little like a young David Lee Roth, who I was never that crazy about either, but the album actually is pretty good and he does a decent job, IMO.

Virtual XI sucked ass!! The choruses were just run into the ground over and over and over again, and it seems like they programmed a drum machine instead of using Nicko. There's a bunch of cymbal crashes, but like one drum fill on the whole album. Fukkin' lame!

I never cared for theater of Pain, I mean Home Sweet Home holds that cd from being real crappy. There's like 3 or 4 songs that I love on there

Motley crue 1994, Is one of their best, I'm never without that cd in my car.

Zepplin, I never liked Coda, or Presence. Tea for one is one of my favorites but never cared for it

The Final Cut, really? I would place "Piper at the Gates of Dawn" as their worst maybe followed up by "Divison Bell".

Regarding Styx's Kilroy was here... I still think that is a great album, and it was my personal soundtrack to my 10th grade in high school. I don't doubt that it is crap to most people, but I am just totally blinded to all of the criticism that album gets. I still love it. Kind of like "A Passion Play" by Jethro Tull; a lot of people just don't get it, yet I think it is a masterpiece.

And I think Counterparts by Rush is another great album.

Train of Thought by Dream Theater was a big disappointment to me, although "In the Name of God" is totally killer, and "Dying Soul" has some great riffage as well. I know that album has received mixed reaction from DT fans.

Blaphemy.

Train of Thought was intentionally a one-dimensional album. Personally, I loved it. If I had to pick on DT, I's say When Day and Dream Unite was their worst album. Some of the vocal melodies were pretty cool, and Ytse Jam rocked. But the production on that album was sub par. The tone was very tinny and thin.

I've heard a lot of metal heads say that Bathory's Octagon is unbelievably horrible, especially for a band like Bathory. I'm thinking of giving the CD a shot.

Re: Worst album by a great band??

GNR - The spagetti incident (What was Axl thinking?)

Ratt - Dance Dance Dance To much of a transition from Invasion and cellar.

Bon Jovi 7800 Fahrenheit the weakest record in their catalog.

Going back and listening to some of my favorites is down right painful because of the recording quality.
Motley- to fast for love- Micks guitar sounds like it was recorded in a mens room.

Dokken Tooth and Nail again Lynchs guitar is to bright.

Ratt EP sounds like it was recorded by a jam box.
