Here is an album I kind of like- The first half of the CD is great, the second half is a bore and I usually turn it off.
Avenged Sevenfold
City of Evil

Released June 7, 2005

Biggest Disappointment for 2004 (Sorry, I didn't think of this until this year). What the fuck happened to these guys? Day of Reckoning is one of the best metal albums of all time, then their follow up is terrible. Well, not 100% terrible, they have maybe 2 or 3 good songs on it, the rest is terrible.
Diecast
Tearing Down Your Blue Skies

Released October 19, 2004

Biggest Disappointment for 2005: What the hell album is this? This is horrible. Maybe they didn't have enough time to make this album, since the first one only came out last year. Maybe it's because Nicki Sixx didn't help write all the songs. Who knows, but the two things I do know- 1) I'm glad I saw these guys when they were good 2) I wasted $19.99 on this CD!
Brides of Destruction
Runaway Brides

Released September 27, 2005

Worse Album of 2005: I think I was on drugs when I said Aslee Simpons's last album was good. How can this album be any good, her first album came out a year and a few months ago? That's not enough time to come up with a new album. This album is garbage EXCEPT one song. The only good thing about this album, was I didn't buy it, I downloaded it. If I did buy it (not that I would because I wouldn't want to be caught dead buying any Simpson album), I would personally drive up to her label and flinge it at the CEO's head.
Ashlee Simpson
I Am Me

Released October 18, 2005
