The Chorus.Fm Users Definitive Albums List • Page 23

@irthesteve I’ll probably get to 49/50 on your list but I ain’t subjecting myself to Sublime.

 

wtffff brooooooooooooo, don't hate

 

In my defense, the list of music I actively dislike is shorter than almost anyone I know.







But Sublime sucks.

 

I'm sad you feel that way, they were, and still are, one of the only bands to successfully blend the genres they did and Bradley's voice is beautiful

 

Honestly the post was to say I'm anticipating going through the rest of your list as much as it was to shit on Sublime. Haha

 

I can tell you that I have no familiarity at all with Dan Fogelberg.

 

Oh MAN.

Nether Lands is probably a touch more orchestrated than is your go-to, but I legit envy you getting a first listen if/when that happens.

 

Hoping to have my list up in the next day or two. Highly recommend Toto IV though for anyone who hasn't heard it yet

 

sublime/rhcp/incubus truly the worst sub-genre music in my lifetime

 

Sublime is absolutely not as bad as anyone is making them out to be

 

and yet badfish is a song

 

Badfish rules!

I like RHCP and Incubus enough. Not great bands, but each have albums worth owning.

Can't imagine being really anti "Otherside" and "Megalomaniac"

 

Incubus are solid, Morning View and Make Yourself are truly great albums. RCHP has some good stuff but a lot of shit to dig through for it.

 

Was never big on Incubus but they have solid songs.
Don't wanna defend RHCP because they're full of rapists and assholes.
I feel like Sublime's shitty fanbase makes them worse than the actual band was. They have some absolutely cringe-y shit but Brad was a great singer and they could craft some solid songs. Also the reason I knew who KRS-One was in grade school.

 

Man. A ton on here I haven't listened to. Love seeing WIESS at NUMBER 2. Love Superstar Car Wash. Love S&M album by metallica.

 

Yeah, I love both Incubus and RHCP. Both had albums that just missed my list.

 

"Drive" was our graduation song so now I can't hear it without twitching

 

I listened to Gratitudes from Chris’ list as it wasn’t a name I recognised at all. I see it was a Jonah Matranga project / album, and I like him a good amount, so that was a nice surprise. Pretty good second wave emo / punk stuff, like early Jimmy Eat World or Mineral or those sort of bands (Far obviously too). Surprised I hadn’t come across them before, seemed like quite an AP band. Was pretty solid and enjoyable all the way through, a bit similar to my reaction to The Weakerthans, nothing here that really blew me away but was good all the way through for a first listen, and something I’d probably return to later.


For some reason “This is the Part” was not available on Apple Music here, rest of the album was, just not that song, so listened to that on YouTube afterwards.

 

Incubus put on a great show on their tour with Jimmy Eat World. RHCP is like four extremely talented guys got together and decided to find the worst way to utilize those talents.

 

This RHCP hate is offensive.

 

not as offensive as how many rapes they’ve done

 

ok....

 

Well here is the contender for the worst list(s) on the site. This literally goes back all the way to 4th grade, which was the start of a musical journey that makes no sense.
