Worst Album You have Bought

I didn't buy it but, like millions of others, I woke up in 2014 to find myself the outraged owner of Songs of Innocence by U2. Bono had talked Apple into inflicting this audible turd on all iTunes users. I've tried deleting it from time to time but it still won't flush.

I drive a 14 year old car for work and deleted Apple Music for the same reason. Then found out something in Apple Music opens my cars CarPlay 😭. So in other words to get Spotify on I had to reinstall Apple Music and know I inflicted U2 on myself.
 
I bought a photograph album once which was incredibly disappointing, completely empty, no pictures in it all.

Tool - Lateralus bought it on the hype, the artwork (which was excellent) and the comparisons to King Crimson (which were well wide of any mark). Hated it, took it back to the shop and they agreed to give me a credit note, which was fine bought something else (no recollection what). Only album I've ever done that with still got lots of albums that I don't particularly like but none that I've hated so much.

Lateralus is very very good.
 
I'm a massive fan of the Art of Noise, but this album is an absolute pile of proverbial, so much so that they called it a day until re-forming in 1999 with The Seduction of Claude Debussy (which is actually a very decent, if very different AON record)

Whilst I nominated Cohens Death of a Ladies Man as my worst vinyl purchase in the UK , however in Thailand we have 2nd hand shops usually imports from Japan and some have vinyl which I bought Pete Wingfields Breakfast Special a few weeks ago . Eighteen with a Bullet was a decent tune and I bought this for £2 on the strenghth of this track which is on it. The LP is however a pile of weak non tunes (apart from the excellent Eighteen) He turned up playing keyboards with Macca a few years ago and the odd record production, After this release, Wingfield seems to have promptly disappeared from view as a performer in his own right. His songs were perhaps a little too sweet, with a high 'sugar' content - to support a longterm solo career.

I said at the time that they should have had one album from Kid A and Amnesiac which would have been a classic.

I don’t like either album, but Kid A is a classic in many people’s eyes. It’s just not my bag.

At least when Amnesiac came out though, I expected it to be rubbish. I expected Kid A to be as immense as the Bends and OK Computer.

Idioteque, The National Anthem, Everything In It's Right Place, cut treefingers out and put the other version of morning bell in it's a brilliant album

I struggled at first, it was such a shift, but I love it now and have since about 2005

For me theres maybe 6 or 7 decent tracks between kid a and amnesiac.
