I have listened to all four semi finalists and can honestly say, anyone will take pride of place as the worst album I own (although I do have “Victim of Love “ by Elton John on vinyl, so it’s going to be a close call 🤪

    1) I'd say the Angelic 2 the Core was the favorite to win, but if it comes down to Corey vs. Boston, it could be an honest toss up. I'd done a decent job forgetting how wretched Life, Love, and Hope was before March Badness came along.
    2) I pretty much agree with Jason word for word on 2020 vs. LROOE. Bon Jovi is the equivalent of a good hearted puppy pissing on the carpet, but the Eagles only seem to care about selling $300 tickets to other boomers. I'm offended far more by the latter.
    3) Something else to consider in POTW vs. Angelic is that the Shaggs stick to one lane (guitar and drums) with Corey covers a wide array of styles and is wretched at all of them. Point to the Wiggin Sisters.

    "It's unfortunate that I have to defend one of them, again." (Ha!) I'm with Jason in regards to how that Nickelback album sounds horrible. "...just getting slapped in the face with a wet rag." That's pretty funny, too. I don't fully agree with Limp Bizkit moving on as there were moments of sound on there that weren't terrible - and I did not enjoy any of the moments on the Nickelback album, but perhaps I'm nitpicking. I guess I'm going to have to give that Corey Feldman album a full listen.

  • @Ras137
    @Ras137 3 роки тому +1

    I keep not voting, because I cannot find the time to listen before voting closes. But in my mind I went against the audience every time::
    1. Shaggs over Boston - the Boston album is bad, (and sounds terrible) but Shaggs was near unlistenable. The title track (and a couple of others) have a tiny bit of charm, but some others (e.g. My Pal Foot Foot) I couldn't conceive of something that bad.
    2. NIckelback over Limp Bizkit - Limp Bizkit is terrible, stupid, offensive and that damn album is over an hour long. But I kid you not, my brain developed a headache while listening to Nickelback. Maybe because I had just finished Limp Bizkit and my brain was looking for some excuse to check out, but Nickelback caused me PHYSICAL pain.
    3. Liz Phair over Corey Feldman - Feldman is an actor not a musician, Liz Phair has made great music (including my favorite album by a female "Exile in Guyville") I thought her self titled 2003 album was her nadir (including "H.W.C.", which I thought was the most embarrassing song, I'd ever heard) but she really out did herself here especially the first two tracks. Feldman is bad of course but I don't find it as unlistenable as the Shaggs album.
    4. Eagles over Bon Jovi - Confession I'm actually a solo Don Henley fan, I think "Boys of Summer" is one of the all time great songs. I "like" the Eagles and find Bon Jovi "okay". Here I feel Bon Jovi's heart is in the right place but just fails badly where as Eagles are just making bland soulless corporate music by design. The "Nickelback" of aging rockers, if you will.
    I've been loving the tournament. Looking forward to next week.

  • @zacharypopp3549
    @zacharypopp3549 3 роки тому +2

    Here's my thoughts on the final four:
    Boston- Life Love & Hope- this is a truly terrible release from a band that was once great. The songs have progressed zero artistically since the debut despite decades in between the release, and the songs in that unchanged style are worse, and everything is recorded extremely poorly. Every time I try to listen to this album I feel like something must be wrong with my headphones. There's literally nothing that makes me want to pay attention to the album even remotely.
    Bon Jovi- 2020- another case of a once good artist falling off the rails, but for decidedly different reasons. The level of out of touch shown here is truly astounding. You can hear just how much Bon Jovi is carefully composing his songs and perspective to use his platform to match several problems in the world, but the disconnect between that effort and how the actual product turns out and how it's heard by real people is just crazy and kind of hilarious. The songs sound like they were meant to be parodies for the Onion, but they weren't, and it's just painful to realize Bon Jovi has no idea. Also his voice sounds terrible. That said, I can't say that every song has no redeeming qualities at all, or there aren't things that approach musicality here, but they are few and far between, with zero examples of actual success in execution.
    Results May Vary- Limp Bizkit is a band that had a little bit of a popular following and of course radio success for a while but which critics have nothing to say good about at any point in their career. I tend to be skeptical when critics completely reject a style or sound that was popular at one time. Limp Bizkit to me sounds "extremely dated". By that I mean I recognize that many people realized how ridiculous their style was from the moment they came out. But for some people, it probably sounded kinda edgy and cool, at least until they learned better and realized how dumb and bad sounding their whole schtick is. From this perspective, and taken in this context, this album has some moments of creativity and catchiness, while other songs just totally fail (the cover of "Behind Blue Eyes" being an example). But of the final four I think this is the "best" one.
    Corey Feldman- Angelic 2 the Core- yes, this is the worst album by far. This album is absolute garbage in every sense of the word. Some of the hip hop features are not terrible, but Corey's vocals are just the worst thing you could possibly here, and he brings literally no musical value to anything here- I wish it was funny in the way "The Room" is, but you could tell Tommy Wiseau has some kind of heart and desire to make an artistic statement however misguided the product, I don't hear anything here except Hollywood BS. But here's the thing- Corey Feldman has at no point demonstrated any talent in music, and while I know he has fans of his "cache" or maybe acting abilities, I don't know anybody who would say they honestly like this music. As a result, I'm just not really sure it should qualify for this tournament. It's the worst of the albums presented, but if I made and released an album of myself burping, that would be even worse. At some point, who even cares what people decide to do or release, and that's how I feel about it, and that's why I voted for Bon Jovi 2020 despite this being objectively worse as music- because that's a more "memorable" bad.

    I have a feeling the fan vote will be overturned in Boston’s favor for the next round. I sampled some of that and can’t wrap my head around why drum programming like that would come from an obsessive studio wizard. Probably the only song I know from Results May Vary is the terrible “Behind Blue Eyes” cover, but I wonder if I’d be a little more forgiving of the album than Boston since there was actually a time on my life where I actually liked their first two Limp Bizkit albums and could tolerate Fred’s obnoxiousness a lot more.
    I listened to all of 2020 yesterday and it didn’t immediately jump out at me as an all time bad album. Not good by any means and maybe it would turn out to be a lot more awful on subsequent listens, but typical super obvious melodies and overwrought lyrics that are par for the course for Bon Jovi, and the vocals are less overwrought due to Jon’s age, so that might make it more preferable for some people. It’s super generic enough to seem like it came out of a machine but also seems like an album you could play in the background without people demanding to have it turned off. Not sure if that would be the case for Corey Feldman. I listened to the first several songs on that epic and I couldn’t imagine 95 minutes of it not being worse.

    Boston is one of those bands that are way more popular (or hated for that matter) in the US than in Europe. Over here you'll be hard pressed to find someone who can name a song by Boston other than "More than a feeling", even among people who consider themselves knowledgeable on popular music. They would be considered a one hit wonder where I come from.
    Nickelback are "bad" for all the reasons you mention but they do have some respect among musicians, in particular those who care for perfect play. As a guitarist, you can learn from Nickelback: how power chords work, how to make riffs off a pentatonic that are mildly more interesting than just noodling, ... they are a possible stepping stone on a guitarist's path. You can ignore them of course - well you couldn't really when they were popular.
    The Eagles are probably the best musicians of the whole lot on display here, which makes their album the biggest disappointment. They are also notorious for being the worst band to youtubers-musicians who take their songs for inspiration or teaching material. Don Henley and his gang have been ruining innocent people's life. They deserve all the hatred for that alone.

    2020 and Angelic 2 the Core is a tough matchup. Both are seriously cringe inducing. Just to break the tie, I might give credit to Angelic for being at least somewhat entertaining in its badness (especially if you watch the videos) and having some cool sounds even if they're rendered cheesy in this context, while the Bon Jovi isn't at all entertaining in its badness, just off putting.

Listening to the album, the campy/cheesy amusing factor soon wears away and is replaced by revulsion. And maybe I will give Bon Jovi credit for at least trying to create a meaningful response to the year 2020 even though the results are terrible. And I can kinda sorta tolerate some of the acoustic guitar. On the other hand, Snoop makes an appearance on Angelic and his presence ever so slightly increases the cool factor (since we're grasping at straws here). It's like looking a two piles of shit and trying to decide which is shittier.

    Simply a travesty. There is nothing that compares to the Shaggs. I can actually make it through that Boston album - it's bad, the songs are just like snippets and cast off ideas of previous Boston songs, and it sounds like a cassette tape that came apart and you had to fix it with a pencil and scotch tape. But I can make it through, in sorrow at what had become of them. The Shaggs is physically painful to listen to. I can listen to the beginning of each song but have never made it through any of them. The impossible to tune cheap guitars, tone deaf voices, frighteningly awful lyrics and mindless beatless drums are a category all their own. There's nothing this horrific.

It probably sounds bright and wonderful to people who have lost the low end of the hearing spectrum.

      Nothing on the album seems even close to trying to get Jackson's sound or groove. Again, it's more like Spinal Tap (even a very similar voice from the "Creation" track).
      The album debuted to several videos about how bad it was, and the videos only reinforce the badness. I think it was a conscious publicity stunt to keep Feldman in our consciousness, and a number of people probably bought the album as a joke.
