17-15
17.) DJ Shadow-The Outsider
I love DJ Shadow. The albums Endtroducing and The Private Press pretty much define instrumentqal Hip-Hop. When I heard he was going to experiment with Hyphy and other styles, I was willing to give him the shadow (no pun intended) of a doubt. The end result is an absolute disaster, and the worst album that was released last year. Complete with bad U2 and Coldplay immitations, now played out attempts at sample-ridden instrumentals, and well, even fucking Q-Tip can't save it.
16.) Black Sabbath-Never Say Die!
The last Sabbath studio album with Ozzy, Never Say Die! should have been called Pull The Plug. Full of bloated attempts at Prog-Rock , a generally disjointed feeling, a song ("Breakout") with saxaphone that goes nowhere, and Ozzy and the band sound unentusiastic. In other words, you can tell they don't want to be around one another.
15.) Black Sabbath-Forbidden
The last Black Sabbath studio album, this is their worst. It features Ernie C (of Body Count fame), it features a duet with Ice-T (I'm not making this up), bad attempts at Power Metal, one of the worst Metal Ballads ever recorded ("Can't Get Close Enough"), and even sees Tony Iommi recycling a riff from one of his own songs. The album itself should be "Forbidden." LOL GET IT!?!? Ok, i'll shut up now.
