Most overrated albums in music.

edited July 2012 in Not Sports Related
Apologies if this has been done in the past but being the music fan I am I would be interested in your thoughts. My most overrated album in music has to be Dark Side Of The Moon. Pretty good but really...that good???

    I always thought REM albums had 2-3 killer tracks and an awful lot of filler.

    One of the few albums I would have paid someone to take off of my hands was The Strokes first album, utter shite.


  • Diamond Dogs?
  • Anything by Oasis.
    I'm sorry but they just don't do it for me.

  • Ok computer. I'm not a big radiohead fan, I just don't get them, but everyone else... Isn't really that good? Also, sgt pepper
  • Prince - purple rain
  • Adele's 21...
    Agree with that.
    Anything by Oasis.

    And that. Drone.

    This. Never got the fascination with Radiohead
  • What about "last great albums".
    As in when you have a band that do 2 or 3 great albums then just produce dross for the rest of their existence.
    Like Weezer post blue album. Green album was ok-ish, but after that they just died.

    And yes to Radiohead, some good tunes but albums as a whole are awful imo.

    Don't agree with you on Sgt Pepper though.

    WHAT?! That is a great album!
  • The Strokes, Stone Roses and Oasis first albums are three of my favourite of all time! All about opinions I guess.....

    The La's and Astral Weeks by Van Morrison are two heralded albums that spring to mind that I've never been been able to get into.......
  • agree with Bat, U2, Radiohead, REM & Floyd. Would add most Queen albums and Led Z.
  • Any album by Bruce Springsteen.
    I don't get him. Beyond ordinary imo

    My cheques in the post :-)

  • Totally irrational butdetest anything by Van Morrison. Also have a totally rational & justifiable hatred of The Beautiful South.
  • me to.
    The Stone Roses
  • anything by The Beatles
  • Any coldplay album after Parachutes. Honestly my generations U2, self obsessed, self righteous and talentless.
  • Oasis are massively overrated, don't think their superhits are that great either. I agree on Coldplay, though after Rush of Blood,a nd U2.

    Don;t get how people can say such things about my beloved Floyd and Led Zep though D:


    Oh also, Slayer. Boring as sin. Couple good songs but i honestly think there albums and songs are boring and repetitive.
  • OK Computer is a classic. I am not saying that Dark Side is a bad album I just don't get the hype that has been going on about it for the last 30 40 odd years. Has a few good tunes on there but thats about it.

  • any album that the NME describe as pivotal, momentous, trailblazing, historic, significant, vital or iconic piece of art.

  • The Happy Mondays - Apart from 1, possibly 2 tracks - their tuneless, hamfisted dirges have dated horribly...IMO of course!
  • the killers - hot fuss
    keiser cheifs first album
