Tyrant in Distress
We always see posts about favorite CDs, how about a top ten of CDs that represented a sharp decline in a bands ability (whether they were a one-time affair or the beginning of the end). Try to limit it to 1 per band. They don't even need to be CDs that you hate, just ones that aren't nearly up to par with the bands other offerings (for example, I like "Cuatro" and "I Hear Black", but they aren't nearly as good as other albums from F&J and Overkill). Let's all try to be civil, even if one of our favorites is listed.

1. Metallica - The Black Album
2. Megadeth - "Risk"
3. Testament - "The Ritual"
4. Sepultura - "Roots"
5. Machine Head - "The Burning Red"
6. Thought Industry - "Outerspace is Just a Martini Away"
7. Dream Theater - "Falling Into Infinity"
8. Evereve - "E-Mania"
9. Overkill - "I Hear Black"
10. Flotsam and Jetsam - "Cuatro"
 
1)Slayer-Diabolus
2)Old Man's Child-Revelation 666
3)Cradle of Filth-Midian
4)Anthrax-Stomp 442 or whatever it is called....
5)Metallica-Load
6)Control Denied-Fragile Art of existence (good, but far from what I was hoping it would be....they made us wait too damn long, got expectations too high!)


Can't think of anymore at the moment........
 
1. Metallica "Metallica"
2. Paradise Lost "One Second"
3. Moonspell "The Butterfly Effect"
4. Edge of Sanity "Cryptic"
5. Sepultura "Roots"
6. Megadeth "Youthanasia"
7. Kreator "Renewal"
8. Katatonia "Discouraged Ones" (but I love it now :D )
9. Pestilence "Spheres"
10.Morbid Angel "Covenant"
 
I always try not to read the other replies so I won't influence on them, well here's my letdown:

Metallica - The Black Album (absolutely the beginning of the end!!)
Megadeth - Youthanasia
Moonspell - Sin/Pecado (sucks!!!)
My Dying Bride - 34877%...Complete (Their only bad album)
Morgoth - Feel sorry for the... (What the hell was that eh?)
Amorphis - Tuonela (just not what I expected)
Iron Maiden - Virtual XI
Benediction - Victory
Grave - Hating Life
Asphyx - Asphyx (Boring!!!!)

:p
 
1. Metallica: Metallica
2. Megadeth: Rust in Peace :)eek: sue me I can't stand this album)
3. AC/DC: Back in Black (yeah there are a few good songs, just doesn't live up to the hype).
4. Pantera: Reinventing the Steel
5. Black Label Society: Stronger than Death (Zakk Wylde can't sing worth shit).

I can't really think of any other major let downs.
 
i liked Reinventing the steel.,.,.there was some good licks in there that were crazy,.,.,.anyway.,.,
1) Judas Priest - Demolition (i mean come on.,.,.he trys to rap in it)
2)Six Feet Under - True Carnage (i like the fast solos.,.,but thats bout it)
3)Fear Factory - Digimortal
4)my ex-band.,.,.in which they got a choir boy to sing for us.,.,<shakes head> .,.,.,.:bah: .,.,.
 
Queensryche - Live Evolution

Disc 2 is great! But Disc 1, with all the old material, is a bit weak. God bless Tate, I still revere him, but he's struggling on those old songs.
