The Worst Album Titles of The Year?
Spin magazine weighed in with their 15 Worst Album Titles of The Year list, and most of it's pretty on point. I can't get behind an album called "Raditude" (Weezer) or "Loudest Common Denominator" (Drowning Pool).
None of this years list is as bad as the worst album title of all time, which is of course Guns N' Roses' "The Spaghetti Incident". It is only August, though.
Update: Sometime LNMC contributor Spencer Kent sent me this list of the worst album titles of all time from Cracked.
I gotta say the Peaches title seems appropriate for her image. And isn't Kristeenyoung a web-porn site?Anyway I remember a title from back in the '80's. I'm not sure this was ever released but I saw it in the small print at the bottom of an ad for some type of guitar Steve Lukather was playing at the time (Valley Arts?) It said something like 'Hear Steve on his new album "I Hate Every Bone In Your Body Except Mine".' I suspect it never came out under that title but still it's got to be one of the worst ever.
I think you're thinking of Christine Young. Traditional spelling- French- not porn/American English spelling.
Don't try to confuse the issue with half-truths and gorilla dust.
Mustard Plug's Skapocalypse Now is a horribly titled album. I've known these guys for a long time, but not well enough that they'd ask my advice on titling their albums, but if they had asked, I would have advised against that one.
BTW: These guys have been playing ska for a long, long time...Okay, they're third wave ska, so there have to be influences, but Sublime is not one of them.
