Albums that you thought were weak, but

[JetFixxxer]

everyone you know think it's one of their best.. and vice versa

Here's a few of mine that I thought were weak.

Iron Maiden - Somewhere in Time... I liked it but really didn't think it was all that. And anything with Bailey singing.
Metallica - And Justice For All, St. Anger
Motley Crue - Theater of Pain - I hated this album.
Queensryche - Empire


The ones I think were good... along with nobody else
AC/DC - Flick of the Switch
Metallica - Black, Load, Re-Load

[Joe_Steeler]

anything by Pearl Jam
I agree with you on Motley's-Theater
Scorpions- Tokyo Tapes
anything by Poison
anything by Soundgarden

[guitarsjb]

Flick of the Switch was great!!

[quiksilver]

I agree with all of the ones you dislike, JF. Theater of Pain especially sucked.

[DonP]

I love Savatage's Sirens / Dungeons / Power of the Night, but I don't hear of many others liking this earlier stuff.

The ones I think were good... along with nobody else

Metallica - Black

I wouldn't exactly say nobody liked the Black Album.

[AfterForever]

Children of Bodom - Something Wild. My fav CoB album, which is ignored by a lot of people.

I also dig Dragonforce - Inhuman Rampage, I never heard anyone about it. Only how drunk they are and how bad they are live.

And vice versa, what many people like, but I don't:
-Anything by Joe Satriani
-Most Dream Theater

I was a huge fan of Massive Attack's Mezzanine (wich still is one of my fav. albums) it came out late 90's when you only could hear lousy euro-dance music in local radio stations. Everyone I knew hated that album. But then I heard it was a huge success in countries where people actually like music.

I certainly do..but anything after Criss died sucks. Edge Of Thorns was the last Savatage alblm to me..I personally wished Jon sang on that one tho.

ummm..

Anthing by Loudness after On the prowl.

Anthing by Ratt after Dancing Undercover

Anything by Queensryche after Empire

Anything by Metallica after Black

Anything bt Ac/DC after Black

Anything by Dokken after Back for the attack..with the exception of Erase the slate/Hell to pay

Anything by Ozzy after No rest for the wicked.

Anything by Van Halen after Balance...but MWM/CGTSNM w/ dave and humans being were cool

Anything by Wasp after the last command

Anything by Night Ranger after Midnight Madness

Anything by Mr Big after Lean into it

Anything by Skid Row after s/t when Baz left

Anything by the Scorpions after Savage Amusement

Anthything by Tesla after TGRC

Anything by Extreme after III

Anything by Def Lep after High N Dry

Anything remotely Nu or Rap "metal"..me no likey

Anything by Rush after the 70's..

That's the stuff everyone knows tho..

These are my opinions...they don't have to be yours..

This list is pretty bottomless..

[JetFixxxer]

..that's the only I don't have..I bought it when it came out tho.

I still kept VH III..I haven't put that on in 10 years tho..maybe I should..or maybe I shouldn't

Nope, today is early VH day!!

[sonicsamurai]

anything by metallica

anything by within temptation

vh - women and children first

half of led zeps back catalogue...i just hate the acousticy stuff


bill - you don't like headless children or electric circus?

[horns666]

"bill - you don't like headless children or electric circus ?"

Yeah. I still have those. I didn't trade those off since new..so they're cool IMO.

My girlfirend bought me Women and Children First for my 16 birthday. That was cool..but she was a smelly pirate hooker!

Sirens is one album that I play a lot. I think post-Criss era Savatage is good, but they just don't have the same je ne sais quoi that the Criss albums do. I am far more into Jon Oliva's Pain than I am in to Post-Criss Savatage.

When I saw this thread title, this is one that immediately came to mind. I like Risk. I understand why a lot of people don't, but to me it shows that Dave does have some songwriting and vocal ability ( "Time: The Beginning" ).

I love that album!
