Best New Album versus Worst New Album

[Greasetea Season3]

Best New Album

R.E.M.
12.99 at CD Warehouse
clocks in at an hour plus
very excellent if not most wonderful lyrics
band has shown growth without alienating fans
worth the wait for
not annoying in car
not annoying whe sleeping
everyone smiles at track 8

Worst New Album

Depeche Mode
15.99 at CD Warehouse
clocks in at 47 or so (46 to many if you ask me)
this album makes me want to kick a person in the pussy
band has shown that adding some guitar riffs makes them Nicoise!!!
worth shooting the lemonheads who greenlighted the album
annoying when bleeding to death with a knife in your chest after getting carjacked
sleep? this album is a good substitute for Dr. Kevorkian's machine.
everyone wants to jump out a nearby window at tack 8

Conclusion: Depeche Mode's new album sucks Micheal Stipe's cock.

I bet gahan wishes Clarke would have never left...please Vince come back and show them what DM was supposed 2B.

Greasetea in da hizzzyhouzzzzzzzzzzzzeeeeeeeyaaaaaaaa and I is tha' H-bomb in your Hiroshima Milkshake!!!

I thought it a cruel trick by REM to release "Imitation of Life" as the first single, because it was NOT indicative of the rest of the album; on the contrary - it was the only interesting song on the disc! The rest is easy-listening and monotonous.

Stipe had said (about the album) that he wanted to create something which he can play beginning-to-end at [for example] a dinner party and, sadly, he achieved just that: background music.

This isn't to say that the songs are BAD, per se; they're just...there.

I like tracks 1-4, though. "All the Way to Reno" manages to snare some individuality against the rest of the disc - but it's no "Imitation of Life." And "Reveal" is no "Out of Time," despite the comparisons.

Lester Bangs I am not.

Aaaah, but you see Liffgard...

While true the song you mentioned (and the video is fantasexcellent no? Infact if this was 1991, Kevin Seal of MTV would introduce this as a Vangaurd Video or something like that..) is a poor representative of the entire album, mentioning that it is good background music already lends itself to the fact that it is enjoyably tolerabilly-lable.

..UNLIKE the new Douched-dupe Mode album which is the musical equivalent of New Coke or Pepsi Crystal..all the hype and entirely tastless. I have heard better sounds from women screaming (and some men) on the recieving end of a coathanger abortion deluxe (hold the placenta please).

I am so disgusted with DM's latest output that I will smash Speak and Spell (the 5 extra tracks version nonethless) into my oldest ex-lover's face and then pee on her bits for measure.

In other words:

don't buy DM's new album, your better off getting stomach cancer.

I was never much of a DM fan, but that new single they have out: eww.
