If you don't like the band, just don't listen to them...

Edit: By the way, you don't seem like a person who wants to DISCUSS...
 
And if you think it is electro bullshit, post it in the off-topic
 
The only album I was disappointed in at first was One second. But I got into it after a while. Their first album is crap though.
 
Talk about dissapointments.... Talk about Colony and Clayman again. I am having 'In Flames Crap-Albums' bashing-withdrawls.

Hmph.
 
I don't like their latest stuff, but they still got some great albums.. and I think this list is going to be a looooooooong one.. (Musical Disappointments #N I mean)
 
early stuff (lost paradise) was typical, overdone, mid-paced bullshit. new stuff is far too MTV-rock. middle stuff, up through Draconian is good
 
My musical dissapointments would probably be.......hmmmmmmm,,,.,.,.,.,, At The Gates for breaking up, and AE for getting rid of Johan
 
I used to be a superbig Paradise Lost fan a couple of years ago....but then One Second came out.... :eek: i used to like it a bit in the beginning,it's not a bad record,but i felt sth is missing from it..or anyway it's not my cup of tea,I was expecting sth more inspiring than that...
after that i lost my interest in PL,I only listen to their older stuff...
 
I like them. Draconian Times is a bit too polished for my likeing (it's ok, just gets on my nerves after a while). One Second sucked IMHO. Some great moments in songs, but the production was crap- dynamic range was too big. Has these soft sections you can barely hear, so you turn it up, then get blasted when the rest of the band comes in- I hate that!! There were, I think, 3 songs I really liked, the rest were so so.
Strangely, I really like Host. Not something I'd spend alot of time listening to, but it's great for a change of pace. The sort of cd I only listen to every 6 months or so, but listen to it solidly when I do. Don't have the new one (hasn't arrived in the country yet, and I'm not a big enough fan to order it without giving it a listen).

When you're emotionally connected with some music it's hard for you to accept drastic changes like that.
About the discuss thing you're not right at all. I would ask why you think so?!
BTW Any other suggestions for musical dissapointments, I mean bands that changed for bad... ?

What the hell? The first was the best. I liked the 2nd cd but you could tell even then that they was about to begin their cock-rock journey.
 
I dunno if much will disappoint me more than Tiamat. I LOVED those bastards in high school, and I still think Wildhoney (and to a lesser extent Clouds) are incredible albums. Deeper Kind of Slumber was decent, but a real drop, and after that...well...picture me making the thumbs-down sign and going thbbbbppptt and you'll get what I mean.

Paradise Lost never really sunk to that level of disappointment, in my opinion.

Agree with all, just don't agree to the 3rd & the Mortal.

Yeah? So you're the one, huh? :lol:
Their last 2 were ok (more so 'Painting....'), but their first 3 releases are magical. 'In This Room' was a little too avant-garde for my tastes (the last song is nice :)). They have a new one coming too.
