Most overrated albums?

In the Aeroplane over the Sea - NMH

Thriller. It just seems like a collection of good pop songs to me. Also, The Girl is Mine is unbearably corny.

Ray of Light,1999, Purple Rain, Sign of the Times>Thriller as far as pop albums are concerned due to having alot more atmosphere and being more adventurous.

OK Computer.

kanye west-my beautiful dark twisted fantasy
massive attack- heligoland
sex pistols-never mind the bollocks.

Watch the Throne. It had some good hooks and choruses (thank you Mr. Ocean), and a couple good verses (Kanye's 2nd one on Murder to Excellence), but the rest of the rapping was pretty bad in my opinion. Kanye's production was excellent on a good amount of the songs, but the rapping was just...terrible on a lot of the songs.

Probably something by Beatles or Queen.themajormayor

The White Album by the Beatles.

[QUOTE="Commander-Gree"] You shut your mouth. I would say MBDTF by Kanye West. I do like the album quite a bit and it has great production values, but I don't think Kanye West is that great at rapping.

Lol, I LOOOOOVEEEEE YOUUUU JEEEESSUSSSSS CHRRRRIIISSSTTTTT. Keep telling yourself that.

The White Album by the Beatles.

Lol that's funny. Abbey Road is overrated if you are gonna go there but the White Album is barely talked about compared to that.

The White Album by the Beatles.

Blueresident87

It has Sexy Sadie on it as well and some of their most interesting work in general, so I'd have to disagree with that.

If I was going to name a Beatles album, I'd go with Sgt. Pepper. Song for song, Revolver, Rubber Soul, The White Album and Abbey Road are all superior. Sgt. Pepper actually has a surprising amount of mediocre stuff on it considering that it's often hailed as the greatest album of all time.

I agree about Sgt Pepper, I like the songs but they aren't that great compared to other things by them.

The album I think is the most overrated would have to be "The Moon and Antarctica" by Modest Mouse.Reed_Bowie

OK Computer.deathtarget04

Nooooooooooooo

Both of those are in my top 10. :/

Anyway my answer would be any album by Animal Collective

OK Computer.

deathtarget04

No.

OK Computer - RadioheadPixies - Doolitle Master of Puppets/Ride the Lightning - Metallica Slayer - Reign in blood (Angel of Death - 8 tracks of filler - Raining Blood)SteverXIII

And No.

"Overrated" needs to be banned from the English lenguage all together. Such a shallow word.

Eh

I'm not going to argue with you, you're entitled to your opinion but it's definitely one of my favorite albums that I've ever heard.

Worst album.

Reasonable doubt,its not jay's best album Bucked20

[QUOTE="Bucked20"]Reasonable doubt,its not jay's best album Aljosa23

He's right. The Blueprint is superior on a musical level and far more varied, even if it's not as strong as Reasonable Doubt in the flow/lyrics departmennt.

Honestly, Vampire Weekend's music makes me want to vomit a bit. I think I'd actually rather listen to The Black Eyed Peas than subject myself to Vampire Weekend.

I wouldn't go that far but yeah. I like some really twee stuff like Los Campesinos! but Vampire Weekend are just too much for me.

Anything by Nirvana.

Few more Pavement - Slanted and Enchanted Nirvana - Nevermind Slint - Spiderland (I'd say this will grow on me in time. Now its a bit... hmmm...)SteverXIII

I'm with you on Nevermind but I love Pavement and I should give Spiderland another shot eventually.

I'd take Girls Girl Girls over Ain't No N1gga.

Reasonable Doubt is a little more consistent, but I don't think its high points are as high as The Blueprint.
