Wall of Mouths

Foo Fighters and their radio friendly crap after the Colour and the Shape :-(

That would be Nothing Left To Lose. Dont you think Grohl may have been bored of playing heavy rock by then though ? He says he loves pop melodies.

I wouldn’t call Can I Play With Madness radio friendly.

I never quite got over the shock of listening to Risk by Megadeth, even if it’s been nine years since it was released. Load by Metallica was nearly on the same level of crapness when I first heard it, but that has grown on me a bit over the years, whereas I still consider Risk to be utter shite. Luckily Dave has seen the error of his ways and started making proper music again, with a steadily rising level of quality in the albums since Risk *cringes at having to type the name again*

Oh yes, absolutely. So many bands just end up letting you down!

Oasis - loved the first album, but I remember them premiering their song “Roll With IT” at Glastonbury on TV and I clearly recall cringing at how trite it was.

Also having followed the Manic Street Preachers for so long there have been quite a few “WTF?!” moments.

There are more…

I really enjoyed Machina. Although Zeitgeist needed less Billy in the mix :p You can heardly hear Jimmy !

Tyla from the dogs d’amour did a solo techno album, still gives me nightmares.

Absolutely. I remember hearing Breadline on the radio and throwing up in little in my mouth. United Abominations is quite good, though, I think.

Foo Fighters - Theres nothing left to loose. I was dissapointed with The Colour and The Shape as there was alot of cheese on it but the album after it was so middle of the road, haven’t bothered with them since.

Killing Joke - I can’t remember which came first out of ‘Firedances’ and ‘Birds of a feather’ but either way it was the end of an era.

@Gav - I know you say they got it back but I haven’t dared research your claim yet.

And Stiff Little Fingers ‘Now Then’ The whole album was such shite I was forced to make it into a fruitbowl.

Haha, no! Stop it! Stop! *covers ears with one arm wrapped over head, and waves other arm feebly*

WIldhearts. I loved everything and then Endless Nameless happened and I was very confused.

Ginger, Valor Del Corazon was awesome, then Yoni came out and smelled like somebody’s dog had died

Ash - 1977 then Nu-Clear sounds. What a crock of shit really

I got hold of a copy of Democracy and have had it on loads recently - really good album! really good band - I cant be arsed to go back and listen to the shit albums so I’ve no idea how bad they became.

It doesn’t really matter - cause Jaz Coleman is a massive fuckin loon and that makes him interesting!

the first 3 albums Idlewild released were amazing, then they released Warnings/Promises, i was disappointed with it, then the follow-up Make Another World was a return to form…just!

Ok - I’ll keep my eye out for democracy, and then I’ll know whether to ever trust you again :p And yes he is. I can honestly say that some of the best moments of my life were spent on the stage with Killing Joke. That’s back in the day when if you were a girl and not scared of doing a bit of shoving you could sit where you liked :) I’d give anything for them to just come back for one night exactly how they were (“Jaz, Geordie, oof and Bow” as Sarah used to call them :D Bless). So I’m going to trust you for old times sake and look out for this album of which you speak. And hope I don’t think it’s pants, because I’d rather not know if it is.
