I maintain that Cake has never released a bad album, but Race Car Ya-Yas on Fashion Nugget is absolute crap. A festering boil on the face of an otherwise unblemished body of work.

Radiohead - Pulk/Pull Revolving Doors

Queen - Flash Gordon

Maxwell's Silver Hammer by The Beatles.

Dream Theater - Anna Lee

It's an alright song, I guess, but it's so far away from their other stuff that I do like, and it's really not my cup of tea.

Green day - the entire uno dos tres albums.

My favourite singer is Enya, and I still haven't listened to the album "And Winter Came" all the way through. Her holiday album.

There's also a holiday edition of Amarantine and I've never heard it.

I have Apple Music. I have access to all of this. When I added Amarantine, the holiday edition shows by default. I scrolled down to "other versions" and selected the original and added that to my library (I also have the physical CD and I've ripped it and the others and many more to the highest m4a/aac fre:ac can do).

I just don't do holiday music. Not a grinch or anything, it's just not for me.

Mgła - Age of Excuse I

Not because it’s a bad song, simply because of the noise in the opening seconds. Makes me cringe every time.

Pearl Jam - Daughter

Stooges 1st album, 3rd track. Wtf? Ik it was a John Cale throw in, but kills the entire flow of the album.

Everything from NOFX before Fat Mike learned to sing approximately on the third album.

Not sure I really have a favourite band. But first thing that came to mind was the salmon dance by the chemical brothers

Apnea by Currents. Love the band, have seen them multiple times in person, and have lots of merch. But it’s an extremely detailed song, and it’s very hard to hear, making it my least favorite. They are a phenomenal metalcore band though.

Not really my ultimate favorite, but it stands out because it’s one song that ruins the album for me: “Drawing The Line” from Porcupine Tree’s concept album “The Incident”. The sudden tonal shift takes me out of the mood when listening to the album in its entirety.

Genesis - Illegal Alien, overly poppy and tasteless for a variety of reasons. If not for the lyrics and racial insensitivity, it would be musically preferable to Who Dunnit

Peter Gabriel - The Story of OVO, I love to see Peter experiment and test out different genres but he does not realize how important flow is to rap/hip hop and his lyrical verbosity got the best of him

Honorable mention: Foreigner - Big Dog, overly repetitive riff, trite and creepy symbolism, and really weird growling by Lou Gramm. The sax solo is good though

Pretty much every studio album Iron Maiden put out after their 7th Son album.

Father to a Son by Green Day

I had a very poor relationship with my father and that song just makes me sad and very angry.

Modest Mouse - Pistol

It's a classic song to hate on by fans. I don't mind it now, but it's pretty abrasive.

Tom Waits - I Don't Wanna Grow Up

Nick Cave - Any of the moody ambient stuff

I liked Stacy’s Mom when I first heard it, but after listening to more and Fountains of Wayne over the years, it just makes me angry because it’s the only song of theirs anybody knows! I like that most of their music is about everyday moments and emotions, but the only everyday moment people know is the milf one.

And then I start thinking about Bowling for Soup’s cover of Stacy’s Mom, which is by far the worst cover I have ever heard, not because it’s bad in its own right, but because there are no creative decisions taken, nothing to make it their own, they just do nothing with it and on Spotify it has an entire half of the number of plays as the original. The first time I heard the cover, I didn’t realize until the singing started and I thought the voice sounded a little different. And there are people who don’t even realize Bowling for Soup’s “version” is a cover!

Guns and Roses - My World

Green Day - Fire, Ready Aim

Rush: I'm going Bald

Danger Dan, "Oktober in Europa". I can't listen to any of his stuff any more because it makes me remember this one

Pink Floyd - Animals

I love almost everything by Pink Floyd, but their entire album Animals is a dud for me. Regardless, I'm pretty sure I have an MP3 copy of the album backed up anyways.

Another Brick in the Wall, Part 2
