Violet Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 10 Absolutely Terrible Albums of 2012 (in alphabetical order): Alt-J - An Awesome Wave (how did this win the Mercury Prize over Jessie Ware? :facepalm:) Best Coast - The Only Place Lana Del Rey - Born To Die Mumford & Sons - Babel Muse - The 2nd Law (aka worst album of the last 5 years :sick2:) Passion Pit - Gossamer Ultraista - Ultraista (no one would care about them if Nigel Godrich wasn't involved) The Shins - Port of Morrow Sleigh Bells - The Reign of Terror The Vaccines - Come of Age I actually agree to a certain extent on some of this. Especially with Passion Pit. God, that album sounds hideous. :sick: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wyrd Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 Oh I agree with the Passion Pit album. Love the single from it, but then the rest was an absolute no-no. I liked Alt-J and Lana Del Rey though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Italian Plastic Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 music in the 90s was pretty bad except for hip-hop but it all sounded the same anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ms Magpie Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 2000 was also pretty bad... Well, Kid A came out but you didn't really hear that on the radio and I listened to it A LOT when I was younger... I can still remember Lou Bega and Ricky Martin and how sodding boring the charts were back then. :wreck: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Destrokk Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 some of those album covers are cool looking but when its ironic i guess but when they´re trying to be serious omfg nO also with the debate of best music and worst music in decades are we talking in general or in the mainstream? or underground? i think theres just always contrast, if theres shit music somewhere theres gotta be good music Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tnspieler1012 Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 I just don't get the Cloud Nothings, Grimes, Passion Pit, Ariel Pink hype. By contrast, I don't particularly enjoy the Frank Ocean album (just have a stylistic block to that type of music), but I respect the quality of its writing and production.

Mark Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 I don't agree with Parrot-Dies about much, but the 90s were quality. I'd go back and live it again if I could. I just don't get the Cloud Nothings, Grimes, Passion Pit, Ariel Pink hype. By contrast, I don't particularly enjoy the Frank Ocean album (just have a stylistic block to that type of music), but I respect the quality of its writing and production. Where I'm from, R&B is really uncool. Frank Ocean and The Weeknd make it cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyan Kat Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 I listened to so much R&B when I was growing up then I started liking rock music this year I've started to listening to R&B stuff more and dug out some of my old cds though most of it is more early 2000's.

Nikola Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 The 90s were the best era in music ever. Followed closely by the 70s. i like the 60s, the 70s, the 80s, the 90s, the 00s and the 10s so this is a great opinion: I am adamant that the present is and always will be the best time for music i probably listen to older stuff half of the time and new music the other half it's interesting the parrot skipped the 60s and the 80s which are generally considered "the best", for different reasons also with the debate of best music and worst music in decades are we talking in general or in the mainstream? or underground? i think theres just always contrast, if theres shit music somewhere theres gotta be good music personally, i think of artists and songs that defined a certain era, so mainstream it's kinda sad that kids in 20 years from now will be nostalgic about nicki minaj etc although there is a lot of good music today (nothing against nicki, her verse in monster was one of the best of all time. of all time!)
