all ufo albums after misdemeaner
all ac/dc albums from back in black onward. not including stiff upper lip as that had some good songs.
final cut-pink floyd.
the game.
hot space-both by queen.
kid a-radiohead. i don't mind it nowadays, but at the time i was extremely disappointed.
emotion and commotion-jeff beck.
van halen 3. the worst singing i've heard on a record i think.
rocks-aerosmith. too many filler tracks.
all aerosmith lps after night in the ruts. although just push play was a lot better than i imagined.

i don't consider ac/dc to be as aussie and you can get. they were born in scotland.

King Of Limbs - Radiohead: After 'In Rainbows' I was expecting something really awesome. Didn't happen, though.

And I actually liked A Thousand Suns by Linkin Park. It is a bit long, but the actual songs are really good.

I don't know 5 right off the bat, but I have 2 for sure.

Peter Criss' 1978 solo record makes me nauseous.

And I was really, really let down by Christina Aguilera's Back To Basics

I love her voice, but hate the stuff she sings. So, when I heard Candy Man and Ain't No Other Man, I thought, FINALLY! Something I can enjoy.

Turns out, that 2 cd set had maybe 5 songs like that. The rest was that thumpity thump thump stuff. Grrrr.

There's a Christina Aguilera Christmas record which is pretty bad. I cannot remember the song title. It could be The Christmas Song, but I am not absolutely sure.

I've got a top 10 and I had to make myself stop!

1. Yes Tormato by Yes - Over-produced, but worse was to come
2. If I Were Britannia by Budgie - They tried to compromise for the US market
3. Technical Ecstasy by Black Sabbath - Insipid
4. Works by ELP - A few good tracks, but a massive disappointment after BSS
5. Too Late to Cry by Widowmaker - Poor
6. Vicious But Fair by Streetwalkers - Weak
7. A Trick of the Tail by Genesis - Gabriel left and they became a different band
8. Talking Turkey by The George Hatcher Band - Great live but too much brass on the record
9. Rockin' All Over the World by Status Quo - They slipped into self-parody, where they remain
10. Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd - I foolishly expected DSOTM part 2

i don't consider ac/dc to be as aussie and you can get. they were born in scotland.

They formed in Australia though which makes AC/DC an Aussie band. Its where they formed that is what matters, not where they were born imo.

Another album Ill throw up as a disappointment is Iron Maiden Virtual XI. Easily the worst Maiden album.
