First Gateway stinker shared! Sure the intense guitar riffing is some of the best by Linkin Park, but UGH, the spiked tone in rapping and the bass are annoying as h*ll.

A terribly misguided commercially focused ballad from Devin Townsend Project's 2009 alternative metal album "Addicted".

Quoted Daniel

Agreed!

So Linkin Park had Rage Against the Machine guitarist Tom Morello along for their metal album ride, but instead of continuing Linkin Park's rock return, he does not play a single riff or chord, he just provides guitar ambience over a shuffle of piano, synths, and drums in an off-kilter mix. Talk about a missed opportunity!

A weak angry half-rap half-metal song, followed by 6 minutes of static, then a decent but still poor "Ambient" hidden track. What order can be worse than this?

Nearly a carbon copy of the original besides the vocals and additional programming:

Couldn't these guys just add in some of Linkin Park's rock/metal music instead of only keeping the rapping ?!

Love songs are a heavily overrated theme in any type of music, and this sh*tter doesn't change that opinion/fact:

Coldrain's Fateless turned out to be a flop compared to their other albums that are way better, and their attempt to metalize an Alanis Morissette single didn't help at all:


January 17, 2022 02:18 PM

A sh*tty ballad that I think should not exist:

Such an embarrassing abomination in this EP, especially the lyrics:


December 07, 2022 12:04 AM

The new Saint Asonia and Disturbed releases each start strong in the first half, but I've struggled a bit in the second half, especially with a couple weak sh*tters, such as this one tearing down what would've made this EP great:

And this ballad featuring Ann Wilson of Heart, which might appeal to the softer melodic fans, but for the heavier ones such as myself, not so much:

The DragonForce "Ring of Fire" curse carries on into this Through Fire album with their atrocious attempt at covering an Ellie Goulding single:


March 10, 2023 02:12 PM

The occasional switch from metal to surf music will make you be like Joe Pesci and say "What the f*** is this piece of sh*t?!":


April 03, 2023 01:05 PM

No words can describe this atrocity staining an otherwise great album:


November 10, 2023 11:36 AM

No disrespect to the late Joey Jordison, but he really could've written his songs better for Roadrunner United, especially this alt-pop rock stinker with the vocals by Daryl Palumbo of Glassjaw coming out lame:


November 28, 2023 02:12 AM

A lame attempt at thanking cities, bands, and fans in a rap metal sh*tter:


November 28, 2023 08:20 AM

Attempting to parody an aspect often thought atrocious in music, Durst singing in autotune never really suits him well at all in my opinion:


December 12, 2023 02:14 AM

A plain bad laughingstock of a nu metal song:


April 04, 2024 12:02 AM

There are a few pointless instrumentals in Mushroomhead's debut, but this is the worst offender there:


May 13, 2024 01:58 AM

As with Mushroomhead's debut, there are a couple pointless short tracks in Living Colour's Stain, with this track being the worst offender there:
