least favourite lindsey album
 
just to follow up id be curious to know what the least favourite album is!

I'm really torn of late. Usually I choose UTS or OOTC. But now I think those could be the best. I think they are all just kinda equal.

I did not vote because......Go Insane And Law and Order are equally appalling. And it's all up hill from there. The First 2 though.....are headache inducing....god dreadful, IMO.

OotC might be my least favorite (don't kill me), but I still think it's pretty great. I don't think he's made a bad album.

Definitely Law & Order or Go Insane... I personally don't think they compare to the latter 3 albums.

Out Of The Cradle is also my least fave- but still a great album!

Really? Most people say it's their fave. I have to be honest though... I thought it was an extremely "weak" and by that I mean light-sounding record the first time I heard it. I expected crazy mad guitars (like on The Dance)... but the album has grown on me. The two that have never really grown on me are L&O and Go Insane... though I do really enjoy 4 or 5 tracks from each one.

Law & Order

Shadow of the West and Trouble are good. The rest aren't.

I love Law & Order. Not too crazy about Go Insane, but I haven't listened to it in a while. OOTC, UTS, & GOS are all great.

Under The Skin. It's sooooo dull and never goes anywhere. :distress:

I can't believe all the hate for Go Insane! It's one of my fav 'art albums' of all time! It's just sooo "out there" and deliciously quirky.

I am with you. Under the Skin is the album I listen to the least. There's a few strong tracks but I don't love it. And Go Insane is so amazing! I was a late bloomer with it but it's such a great listening experience, and each single track is pretty awesome too. "DW Suite", yesss.

DW Suite makes me giddy when I listen to it I love it so much! :lol:

Ok, firstly Go Insane is a work of genius. I think it's an amazing album all the way through. Smh at some of these responses- OOTC getting some "mehs" is also really, really heartbreaking but I'll get through it I guess. That album is perfect to me. I can't find fault in it. I once listened to it all the way through about 6 times, and I don't normally do that without some kind of an intermission or another album in-between. So I really don't agree with some of the comments about that one at all.:distress:

Now, Law & Order was a little more challenging for me at one point. I hated that September Song tune SO freaking much, and I still don't like it. But since then, I have grown to really dig this album and absolutely love Trouble, Mary Lee Jones, Bwana, It Was I, and THWDIILA.

Under The Skin has some beautiful stuff on it. I think I understand what Louie means, though, because the songs are a little slower. I believe there may have been a couple more slow numbers on there than what is usually preferred. And some of the songs, like Castaway Dreams and Under The Skin, I think, could have been a little less smothered in echo. But I do love and enjoy that album, really. I can't lie, I skip songs when I do my run-through. What is weird is, on that Elizabethtown album Shut Us Down is the standout but on UTS it just gets lost in the sea of similar. Maybe he needed a little more diversity in this collection? I don't know. All I know is there are a lot of gems on this album that end up being overlooked due to the songs sounding so much alike and being rather slow.

I really have not one complaint about Go Insane, Out Of The Cradle (duh), or Gift Of Screws. The other two are more of a challenge, but worth it.

I guess I listen the least to Under The Skin these days...but I still really love the album, despite Not Too Late (ugh, I HATE that song). Shoot, I remember the excitement and uncontrolled joy we all felt when he announced he was releasing it. I went crazy and bought as many tickets to as many shows as I could, thinking it would probably be the only chance I'd get to see him solo. lol! I really can't call it my least favorite album simply because it spawned all the current Lindsey drive. So, long story short, if I had to vote I'd say Law & Order. :shrug: But even then...
