It's either fashion or everyone is getting cooler! I think younger people today are more divided in their musical/stylistic tastes between dance/r'n'b/hip hop types and metallers/slackers/skaters than in my day when there were a few other options...skinhead, Hoddle permed trendies and various others.

I cracked up recently when I saw a young lad of about ten wearing a Slipknot t-shirt with the legend "People = Shit" on the back!! There was another youngster I often saw milling about who wore Cradle Of Filth t-shirts and one had the words "Jesus Is a C**T" on the back...honest!

Nazareth, Loud n' Proud for me.

On new albums and Metallica etc..... I really rate the new Slipknot album (vol.3 Subliminal Verses). It's really well crafted and completely diverse. Worth a listen (once if you have to).

A tough one.

Ogden's Nut Gone Flake is pretty shocking.

Hysteria by Def Leppard was a pure production job with no real guitar sound, a shocker after the masterpiece of Pyromania.

I agree with St.Anger, Metallica have really lost it.

I still quite like Hysteria, but Pyro. never really cut it for me. Odd that.

Anyway, the worst album I ever bought is either The Verve's Urban Hymns - four good tracks (the three singles and the terrific Sonnet) ruined by the endless, aimless nonsense elsewhere, or Radiohead's Hail To The Thief - one good track (single There, There) and an hour of tuneless, adolescent whingeing from a man in his thirties.

Agree with you there, Last Word.

Urban Hymns (Sonnet and Lucky Man apart) is fairly run of the mill.

The worst album I ever bought was Doubt by Jesus Jones - utter shite.

Bought it as a skint student and I'm still angry 12 years later!
