Bad Songs on Your Favorite Albums of 2007
RachelEvil:
It's been growing on me, but "Return To Melanesia" from The Darkest of the Hillside Thickets' The Shadow Out of Tim is a track I usually skip over. It's a damn good album, but I really don't see much need for an a capella track just thrown in there. Though, like I said, it has been growing on me nonetheless.
Thrillho:
Gallows - Orchestra Of Wolves - Stay Cold - It's just not very interesting and hard to distinguish from any other band, whereas the rest of the album isn't like that.
Fountains Of Wayne - Traffic And Weather - Fire In The Canyon - Kinda a boring country-ish song that's just a bit shit on an album of soaring power-pop.
Jamie T - Panic Prevention - Pacemaker - The least tuneful song on the record where his vocals get a bit painful to listen to in places.
fwyxx:
Black Wave/Bad Vibrations - Arcade Fire - Neon Bible
I loved the rest of the album, but this song struck me as undeniably repetitive and emo (not even their usual caliber of depressed-but-not-depressing music, but crap-emo!)
TheFuriousWombat:
I really enjoyed the new Okkervil River album. In some ways it reminds me of Neon Bible. Not that they sound similar, mind you, but simply b/c it's a very good album that pales compared to much of the band's earlier work. That being said I still like "Stage Names" quite a lot. Sadly, the song "Savannah Smiles" is awful. I'm talking pretty much unlistenable. I skip this song without fail every time it comes on. It's far and away the worst Okkervil River song and it even lessens my overall impressions of the album as a whole.

Yes yes yes.
I'd also like to add:
Deerhoof- Look Away- It's long and pointless. I always end the album after "Matchbook Seeks Maniac".
Modest Mouse- Little Motel- This sounds like Modest Mouse trying to be Coldplay. No one should ever try to be Coldplay.
The National- Racing Like A Pro- I don't know why, but I find something about this song immensely irritating.
Panda Bear- The beginning of Good Girl/Carrots- What the hell is this?
Wilco- Please Be Patient With Me- Jeff Tweedy's voice sounds terrible on this one. What happened?
