led zeppelin- in through the outdoor. a decline in the standards set, this is the sound of a band nearing the end.
pavement- terror twilight. just really bad. the difference in creativity and quality between this and brighten the corners is quite profound beck- midnight vultures. his attempts at the american pre hip-hop urban music style free falls into oblivion. steer clear. |

I've missed this thread.
A few good songs, but otherwise it's just a tad boring and uninspiring. Beefheart tries to crack the mainstream, with hilarious results. The lead-off single, Tuesday Morning, is one of my favourite ever songs. The rest of it's just terrible (Pachinko is probably the worst song they've ever written). Not as bad as the other three I've mentioned, but the fact that this followed up the frankly brilliant Scott 4 puts it into perspective. Last edited by Bulldog; 05-24-2009 at 09:15 AM. |

Let's see, Ive always hated all the post-SMiLE Beach Boys material, despite it's minor cult following who swears that it's just as good. Zappa's 'Cruising with Reuben and the Jets' is dull as turds. 'Tommy' from The Who is disgustingly pretentious, and has WAY too much filler. |

I know based on this person's post count of 4 and date of the post that they're no longer around. I just have to say, Midnite Vultures is a really fun album and one of Beck's best IMO.

I agree. A lot of people dislike it but it's a fun groovy pop album and what's wrong with that then?
