    Great call on Floyd, I would agree.

    Oh yeah, I loved The Wall when I was 19. Now I listen to a playlist with about half the songs from it. That album really is loaded with crap.

    I still enjoy Only by the Night, but definitely like Because of the Times much more.

    I'll see if I can come up with something else. Typically an album will grow on me, of course.

    Good call on both.

    The only one that comes to mind right now is the Fleet Foxes. I couldn't get enough of it when it first came out and now I won't even listen to them when they come up on shuffle on my ipod.

    "Who's Johnny" was a great song, but after the Short Circuit film faded away, the song lost all meaning.

    Nirvana - In Utero

    They were my favorite band from about 1993-1996 (all changed when I saw Pearl Jam live for the first time), then I put their music down for 13 years, and rediscovered them last year around the Live at Reading release. I am back to enjoying every album of theirs except In Utero, which is nails on the chalkboard for me now, save for a few songs here and there.

    Haha, no worries. So how stoned were you to enjoy it? That's the real question.

    Sorry man, but sometimes that's what it takes for me to enjoy an album. That's all. I'm down with the sickness.

    Hmmm. I kind of liked that one too. Except for that song My Sacrifice, which always made me cringe. I still don't think that band is quite as bad as it's made out to be.

    Nirvana - Nevermind.

    It's really not a very good album, it sounds so dated now.

    you are insane. i used to listen to nothing but grunge from like 1991-1999 or so, and now i rarely listen to any grunge at all, PJ included. but to suggest Nevermind is dated is outrageous. part of the reason why kurt was so important and why he is underrated not overrated is the fact he created works of art that are not dated at all. he will forever be linked to Gen X, but give that album to a 13 year old now, in 2010, they will instantly relate to, and love the album just as I, and others did, and still do. the album is the essential album for any teen. in fact, if i was to have a kid, when they hit 13, this is an album i would buy for them. kurts feelings, words, emotions and music have stood the test of time. there was a reason his life and his death was so immense, so intense. the guys is practically a saint in the eyes of many, and the amazing thing is this isnt an overstatement.

    pop music is great, it doesnt have to be the crap on american idol. what kurt did was pretty amazing. created a masterpiece of an album, a generational statement, poignant music and art that affected millions of people, and coated it in pop melodies.

    Definately a one hit wonder but his 15 minutes of fame was huge. I can't tell the last time I've listened to either album 15 years at least.

    Doubtless there'll be a few bullets being loaded into a few guns after this, but what the hey:

    Radiohead - In Rainbows. Dull, boring, nice and safe. Not the Radiohead I want to hear.

    Metallica - The Black Album. I just can't listen to it anymore.

    U2 - Rattle and Hum. Same.

    The Who - Who's Next. Three or four great songs surrounded by fucking awful ones.

    Stone Roses - s/t. Aged dreadfully and utterly irrelevant now.
    It's gonna be a glorious day...

    I still love the albums before this ... and I have a live disk of these guys in Boston from a show prior to this release, I play it a few times a year and it kills.

    Really liked this album when it came out (I was 11 or 12) ... but, I cannot listen to it any more, at all.

    Really? I bought this album a couple of months ago and I love it. That'll be unfortunate if it gets old.

    Audioslave.

    I still think the best songs are the one that didn't get any airplay, but that whole album is just moot for me now. I couldn't even pretend to like the later ones.

    +1 to both!

    And there's a loooot more.
    For example I used to be (some years ago) a big fan of HIM. Saw them live at Rock im Park playing right before Queens of the Stone Age. I couldn't listen - it was too awful. And that all just to see QotSA?? Nah, never again!!

    Another point: QotSA - Era Vulgaris
