Hmmm...

Pink Floyd - The Wall
Genesis (gabriel era) - The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway
Enslaved - Isa, Ruun and Vertebrae
Ulver - Everything After Nattens Madrigal and before Shadows of the Sun
Ayreon - 01011001
Guns N' Roses - Chinese Democracy
Kings of Leon - Only By The Night

There's more but some don't need mentioning, like Metallica's generaly ****e era that everyone hates.

You are pardoned

It's a completely different beast to The Queen Is Dead really, you have a point in that it's an album by a band that are still trying to find their own sound but at the same time they're taking a few risks too and going out of their comfort zone, and it works so well.
I wouldn't change a thing about this album.

No denying that they're taking risks and experimenting with Meat Is Murder, but I just don't think they pull it off very well. A lot of the touches, like the endless moaning at the ends of The Headmaster Ritual and That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore, sound to me like a band that has no idea where they're going.

I think I said this somewhere else, but even the mix seems off. The whole thing sounds bland and unexciting. If it wasn't recorded track by track with the band phoning in their parts, it sure sounds like it.

Even the lyrics are pretty bad (even by Smiths standards). I don't think there's a single memorable line in here, unlike their debut and TQID, which were full of great lines. That part in Rushholme Ruffians about "my faith in love is still devout" (and delivered in that awful falsetto) sums up everything I dislike about the album.

But you're right from your side and I'm right from mine.

Agree entirely with The Wall. I bought it on CD to replace my cassette about 6 months ago in order to complete my floyd collection. Still unplayed

I love The Wall and Lamb Lies Down. They get way too much of a bum rap.

I thought that the new Who album was a huge letdown... But then what do you expect with 2 key members gone?

Yeah, Daltry's voice hasn't aged very well either.
