Megadeth- The World needs a hero. The single "Moto-psycho" was terrible.

Metallica- Black Album was just too polished.

Quite a lot of the Beatles stuff.

Green Day - Dookie. It just doesn't do anything for me. At all. I only have it because it was £3.99 in One Up and I feel obliged to give any band a try if the cd is that cheap.

anything by coldplay/travis etc. A lot of british bands (especially ones which appeal to the US) seem to follow a formula with each song and it doesn't differ from band to band. And any decent songs that said band might have are played mercilously on repeat everywhere you go until you're sick of it.

Maybe that's why some folk think that it's over-rated.

Would agree with Sgt Pepper although the other Beatles albums mentioned merit the praise heaped on them by fans and critics alike.

Never Mind The Bollocks, yip and would throw in Definately Maybe. It maybe captured the moment and the imagination of a generation but the songs sound gash to me. Would also say The Bends and OK Computer but then I like Radioheads newer albums a lot better.

I agree about Sgt Peppers, I also think Abbey Road and Revolver are a bit over rated, Rubber Soul is by far my fave Beatles album.

I disagree with OK Computer though imo it deserves all the praise it gets and I find it in no way patchy, every song is brilliant.
