    Above & Beyond - Excuses is the one I have to go with. They have some other songs that miss the mark but this one is particularly grating and gets a skip from me every time.

    • I met Jono and Tony randomly in a club toilet in the early 2000’s. I was mashed off my tits so I’m not sure the conversation was riveting or enlightening for any of us.

    Metallica & Ja Rule - We did it again.

    Yes, Metallica did a song with Ja Rule. You might not like their newer stuff, but I’d rather force myself to listen to the whole St. Anger album than this piece of utter garbage.

    R.E.M. and Shiny Happy People. It’s just so out of place, especially on an otherwise great album.

        It is. I did see a theory that it was actually a very (too?) subtle commentary on the Tiananmen Square Massacre, but I’m not sure I believe it tbh.

    Muse - Big Freeze

    Although there are a few equally awful songs by them. I chose Big Freeze because they had just toured with U2 and then came along with this U2 sounding song that just sucked and i dont like U2

    I first got turned onto Ghost earlier this year, and while I really like the retro tongue-in-cheek cheesiness of a lot of their stuff, The Twenties just leans a little too hard into sounding like it came out of a rock-themed Broadway show.

    Btw, I just read a comment on C/trees about taking a listen to your favorite band’s worst song while high… 😉

    I can’t pick just one favorite, so I’ll choose one of them. Porcupine Tree, and the song Draw The Line. Not because it’s the worst in their entire catalogue, but it’s so jarring hearing it right in the middle of a concept album. It just takes you out with how different it sounds to the rest of the songs.

    Streetlight Manifesto. Toe to Toe is probably their weakest song. Kinda slow, lyrics aren’t great.

    Christina She Don’t Know I Exist is pretty bad, but I’ll give them a bit of a pass because they wrote it when they were about 17 years old.

      Personally I don’t care for If And When We Rise Again. Song takes too long to get started, and doesn’t sound that great compared to the rest of the album. I don’t care for most of the 99 Songs covers either, besides a few.

        I’ll agree on 99. But I don’t really consider that one of their albums. They explicitly produced it as a bullshit cop-out to fulfill their contract with Victory Records.

    Mr Fastfinger feat. Jordan Rudess: Spirit Hunt. Good guitar music with Rudess in keyboards. Although the song sucks. I mean it goes from one idea to another. It has no musical motif which I would like it to have.

    Nine Inch Nails. Excluding any of their most recent stuff, Starfuckers, Inc. has always been my least favorite song off their classic albums. Down in It isn’t much better, either
