Some great bands released a "bad" album once - that album rejected by most of the fans. However, even these albums have some fans. What's your favorite? The album everyone hates, but you like?

I really enjoy the experience of listening to the full album. There�s something cold and futuristic about the album that I greatly enjoy.

Renewal for me as well. It was the experimental side of Kreator that totally made sense to me. It's a special album.

Of those albums up there of the ones I know I don't exactly love any of them, but I guess St. Anger, because it introduced me to metal. Not sure if I have any other albums in my collection people generally hate... do people still hate on Trivium these days? If so, I guess some of their stuff. I still say Ascendancy is one of the few worthwhile metalcore releases. 

Oh and I don't exactly love it but Helloween's Chameleon isn't a bad album in its own right, even if as a Helloween release its pretty bad. A lot of people seem to hate Pink Bubbles Go Ape too. That one I don't get.

The Elder by Kiss could also fit this category.

I'll try and explain then! Tongue 

It's not a BAD album per se. It's a frightfully mediocre album however, its weakeness heightened by the fact that it followed the two Keeper albums.

Add to that the fact that they removed the pumpkin from the logo and replaced it with a bubble (...) and wrapped the whole thing in that shitty "avant-garde" photograph for a cover (a girl holding a fish - so deep), the business suits with fried eggs on their eyes (seriously, what kind of a moron thought this was cool for Helloween? The band that had a goldmine in the pumpkin and fantasy themes goes artsy fartsy - brilliant)... it's no wonder the vast majority thought this was shit. It's not really shit. It's just shit compared to the Keepers.

Then again, they outdid themselves with Chameleon. Pop/rock. It's not bad pop/rock mind you. I'd even go as far to call it overall a better album than Pink Bubbles, as far as songwriting goes. But let me tell you, I was so pissed with them it took me years to even bother checking them out again (around Time of the Oath actually). Never accepted Deris as a good replacement either. His voice was perfect for Pink Cream 69, that type of band, hard rock. As a replacement for Kiske... No.

Really?





This is definitely the worst case of selling out I can remember. By none other than extreme metal and avant garde metal pioneers Celtic Frost.

Cold lake as a glam album is not so bad. The thing that most people are disturbed by is the genre-shift the band did.

I actually don�t think that Celtic Frost track is so bad and I wouldn�t really call it glam metal. It�s kind of soft thrash or something like that. But they have a glam metal image.

I like it. I like their other stuff better, but I still like Cold Lake.

Ι hate the vocals, hate the attitude of the vocals, think the music is mediocre and the whole package is destroyed because that album has the CF name on it.

On music merit alone, this is a 2.5 album IMO at best (not that I remember it well, just the impression it left me). As a CF album, it's a one-star, avoid-like-the-plague album.

Maybe I'm biased! Tongue

^Yes, I still think they should released Cold Lake with another name.
