Was listening to the last Underworld record yesterday and thinking "This is awesome?", until the disgustingness that is "Ring road" came on. Why oh why oh why did that one slip through quality control??
Other examples of songs that stand out like sore thumbs please!
Here's another few:
Crazy Beat - Blur - Think Tank
Damn - Girls Aloud - Tangled Up
Fuck this band - Mclusky - Do Dallas
The Atrocity (Biffy Clyro / Infinity Land)
Invincible - Muse - Black Holes & Revelations
Why must my favourite band suddenly sound like Keane?
WHY?!
*Starlight, surely.
Although half that album is a disappointment anyway.
Urban Monkey Warfare (KMFDM / Attak)
Spit It Out (Slipknot / S/T)
Fuck this band..
by Mclusky is fucking amazing you ZONK!
Its that track 'Clinique Application form' that blows balls!
Yeah it does a bit actually
Good point. But "Fuck this band" isn't one of their better songs in my mind...
I dunno dude,
i got a real soft spot for that song. I used to have at-shirt with it written on. lost it though.
Plus it serves as the quiet before the storm for "to Hell...."
God i miss that band!
:-(
both
the hip hop type songs on deftones-s/t and deftones-saturday night wrist.
especially the saturday night wrist one with that women talking "dirty" at the end.it makes me think of limp bizkit or something.medulla spit it out is a tune
Now then
It's track 3 on "Loveless" by My Bloody Valentine. Can't remember what it's called (have blocked it from ears and memory) but it reminds me of whales in distress.
Sticks out like a boil on an otherwise divine album.
good lord
you mean the 1 minute long piece of sound before to here knows where that is one of the greatest minutes of sound ever created?
smog, prime offender
smog quite often has brilliant albums with one 1 or 2 iffy tracks, for example the last 2 tracks on 'knock knock' and the same on 'a river aint too much a love'. and track 8 on 'supper'!
^ yes
the one where she's talking about poo under foreskins? Pink Cellphone, or something? Gash song - add that to my list
SLOOP JOHN B
noooooooo
slooping john b is fun
JACKIE WILSON SAID
BOB DYLAN'S 115th DREAM
Isnt there a duff Dylan song on every one of his albums.
At least its always seemed that way to me.
or rather
a duff song on every Dylan album
sorry
I quite like 115th dream, great imagery
My nomination "Sweet Life" by !!! on Myth Takes. What is this Chilli bobbins nonsense doing on an otherwise brilliant album.
^^^^^^^WHAT?
Bob Dylans 115th dream is immense.
One of the fucking greatest sign off lines ever as well!
Some that come to mind
Future Of The Left - Fuck The Countryside Alliance (sounds too much like Shellac, not that I dislike Shellac, just that FOTL aren't Shellac).
Blood Brothers - 1, 2, 3, 4 Guitars (Kills the mood built by the album and sounds painfully pretentious).
The Dismemberment Plan - Respect Is Due (Not actually that bad a song, but whoever's idea it was to make that song 12 minutes long should be shot).
I'm sure there are loads more
fitter, happier
i like fitter.happier
rather alot.
yeah i like fitter happier
well i dont like it that much but i dont think it ruins the album at all (ok computer is my favourite album)
Fitter Happier is possibly their finest song
And I'm not saying that to be contentious/elitist/whatever.
It really is a beautiful song - that piano line is just haunting, and the soulless vocals counterpoint it perfectly.
I don't like or trust anyone who dislikes it. There's something very wrong with them.
Really?
Well, anyway - how about 'The way we met' from Morphine's last album, 'The Night'?
Bjork - Ancestors (Medulla)
it sounds like an asthma attack
The brass bits
on In The Aeroplane Over The Sea. I could just do without them, you know?
The brass bits
are what make it a 10/10 rather than 9.9
Coffee in the pot
Road to Rouen by Supergrass
Modest Mouse - Dance Hall
whyyyy, just whhhhy?
Animal Collective - Daffy Duck (Feels)
Providence from Daydream Nation.
Maybe I don't get it. Or it really is a waste of space.
Yellow submarine
on Revolver
Come on Eileen
too-rye-aye.
It spoils most wedding discos too.
Support Our Troops (Black Angels, Oh!)
on Fabulous Muscles by Xiu Xiu. An otherwise ace album, and that track is just gash, unlistenable gash. And that's even by Xiu Xiu standards.
And It's Oh So Quiet on whichever Bjork album it's on. God that song annoys me.
Fuck This Band is mint though.
