Default Good artists, Bad albums

We've done the whole underrated/overlooked thread, but what albums do you think didn't live up to expectations and deserve to be overlooked?

My list-

Pop- U2
St. Anger- Metallica
Risk- Megadeth
The Final Cut- Pink Floyd
Forbidden- Black Sabbath
Turbo- Judas Priest
No Prayer for the Dying- Iron Maiden
"The Spaghetti Incident?"- Guns n' Roses
Just Push Play- Aerosmith
Q2K- Queensryche
Ozzmosis- Ozzy Osbourne
Coda- Led Zeppelin


And for every person that lists Street Angel, I shall deliver a plague onto your house.

hmmm

Behind the Mask- Fleetwood Mac
Space Oddity- David Bowie
Bella Donna- Stevie Nicks...so shoot me
The top- The Cure

I cannot think of any to be honest. Quite simply, because an artists work is like wine..it really is not appreciated until it is old and such, but those albums had sour grapes.

I think the following are pretty bad for the most part...

David Bowie- Hours and Tonight
Stevie Nicks- Street Angel
Madonna- American Life
Tina Turner- Twenty-Four Seven
Courtney Love- America's Sweetheart

But seriously folks, I just couldn't get into that album. When it comes to Blondie I am not really a huge fan. I enjoy many of her songs, almost all of her solo albums, but my preference is "just the hits." No exit was terrible. I enjoyed Maria and Screaming Skin and nothing else. Maybe I'll put in tonight to see if that still holds true. It has been a while since I even attempted to listen to it.

But seriously folks, I just love that album. When it comes to Blondie I am a huge fan. I enjoy many of her songs, almost all of her solo albums, but my preference is No Exit. No exit was awesome. I enjoyed Maria and Screaming Skin and everything else. Maybe I'll put in right this second to see if that still holds true. It has been five minutes since I even attempted to listen to it.
cheater, cheater.

Emoticons added for authenticity.

That Jewel album, 0304, was such a disappointment. I had all of her mainstream releases and when intuition the song came out I couldn't believe it was Jewel. Then I saw the video and knew that for the first time since Pieces of You, I would not be buying a Jewel album on release day. I still don't own that album.

Oh, you like jewel, but not no exit. It's all starting to make more sense now... And by the way, I don't really like U2 that much, so Nyah!

Well I guess you showed me.

You can actually browse some of my CDs here:
Some of my CDs

if that would give you more of an insight. I also forgot to mention the person this topic screams out for:

Carly Simon - Spoiled Girl (yeeech! What was she thinking?)

Yeah, it's fairly cool site, the only problem is that it is entirely based on user submissions so many, many things are missing in all the categories and the submission process is usually a rather lengthy form. I'll only fill it out every once in a while, otherwise I just forget about the titles. It was great however when I needed to itemize everything for my insurance.
