I once heard someone say “the only people who listened to the new FiR album were 13 year old edge lords and adults but they were too busy dming the aforementioned 13 year olds”
@@christiandauz3742 popular monster at least when it came out was new, good and not over the top with its lyrical immaturity, watch the world burn was pretty much the exact same thing but with more complaining about cancel culture but it had fast rap so everyone kinda ignored it, and I kinda stopped listening to the singles after Ronald
Falling in reverse canceling shows was the reason I stopped being a fan of them. I had tickets to two separate shows, and both of them got canceled, I was tired of paying for tickets just to get that money back a couple days later because Ronnie decided for whatever reason he wasn’t able to do the show. Also, he blocked me on Twitter for pointing out that he will cancel shows at the drop of a hat.
Canceling shows is one thing. Life happens and sometimes the show does NOT go on. The problem is that, in lieu of that, he sits there and gambles with money while openly mocking the fans who support him, and he blocks anyone who even asks a fairly honest question. I'd say his feelings are toilet paper soft, but that is an insult to Charmin and all the others who make said product.
For too long I confused Falling in Reverse with Motionless in White, I feel like I owe an apology to Chris Motionless. When it comes to the new Six Feet Under album, it's honestly low hanging (like, watermelon level of low-hanging) fruit, they've made like three good albums and have been living off them for years. Had no idea who Hardy was, but he looks like the result of asking ChatGPT to take two of the worst music genres, bro country and the lamest post-grunge you can find, turn the Americanness up to 11 and combine them into the most poser-like dude you can find.

I'm glad you pointed out that Popular Monster has breakdowns that are identical to each other because even though I do like the singles I still can't get over how each breakdown sounds the same
@@RockedNet Like, I love the title track and Ronald, but All My Life is literally just a country song with a generic breakdown shoved in. As a FIR fan, I can say that's the REAL BAD track. Also funny realizing Jelly Roll has been pogoed by all the edgey guys. First Hollywood Undead being Hollywood Undead, then Limp Bizkit to fix their bad song live, then Ronnie goes country poorly, and then finally Eminem doing a proper tearjerker.
I admit, I've listened to FiR because the ADHD loves it. But Ronnie is literally such an... edgelord and after a year or two it gets boring. I also heard he has blamed some of the venues for shows being cancelled (including my favorite venue) and that's a limit for me, take some fucking responsibility & admit the capacity wasn't high enough. Leaving that band in 2024~
Babymetal is a better fix for ADHD and will probably do a better job at expanding your music horizons if you let it. Plus they keep a tight leash on their public personas so you avoid the drama. For me, when I see people associate FiR as being a good “adhd band”, it’s like seeing people geek out over diet ginger ale for being a flavoured soda when Mountain Dew exists.
Yeah basically he hates the fans, he'd rather gamble on kick than actually go to the shows, then tell fans to f them shelves, also uploading picture of his cash on twitter like a clown
His album with Escape the Fate before he got kicked out was better than all the FiR albums. And I say that as someone who enjoys some of those albums (yes, I know they’re cringe)
My least favorite albums of the year: Hardy - “Quit” Black Keys “Ohio Players” Wage War - “STIGMA” Kerry King - From Hell I Rise Didn’t listen to: Falling in Reverse, Skillet, Trapt.
Didn't know The Black Keys had a new album. If there last album was any indication, then yeah, this one was probably a total snooze fest. [insert Ohio joke]
I love Koffin Kats! I don’t think I’ve seen them in at least five years though. They seem to be avoiding Nebraska and I just can’t get to KC very often.
I went to a local bar once, and I must stress that I basically live in the middle of nowhere where there are more abandoned quarries than houses and chickens than people, and Tantric, a band that time completely forgot, happened to be playing there that night. The bar was literally way more packed with Tantric fans who knew all the words than the amount of people who showed up at the Trapt venue. I guess insulting what little fans you have left on the official twitter account to their faces and being pro-pdf file is an ill advised idea after all.
To Me, I’ve never seen a worse quality drop for an Album with ‘Popular Monster’ since Sia dropped her infamous ‘Music’ album. We went from a good song separated from that album in the title track, to a complete and utter mess that actually angered me. Idk At least Hardy made the smarter choice in not waiting 5 years to drop an album.
Annoys me endlessly that Radke CAN write good music but chooses to stick with this im a victim nonsense. So exhausting like coming home that record cuts so deep but he just won't write like that. ALSO THAT I2I COVER SLAPS HARD AS HELL DON'T ACT LIKE IT DOESN'T MAN!

Chris Trashbag Brown and Ronnie Radke will collaborate and make a song about how badass it is to groom couches in the White House. JD Vance will endorse the single and appear in the music video disguised as a human.
I remember the first time I heard Headstrong on the radio. I remember saying "I feel like I SHOULD like this but I don't." I now realize it was so generic that I couldn't latch on to anything that stood out. Trapt sucks.
I had the best news of my life! Finally, Falling in Reverse is *not* coming to the UK after all out of the Home Office cancelling his visa! I'm spared of having to see people happily posting their selfies at their concerts. So, I just viewed this at the most perfect time!
A few days ago Radke was denied of entry in the UK bc of his 2008 prison sentence so he and his fans complain/cry about it or whatever at the UK government bc of it. One thing for sure is his visa wouldn't have been denied if only Radke just behaved himself, actions have consequences. Radke also went as far as claiming the UK will suffer a giant economic hit 😂😂😂😂
I didn’t bother listening to Falling in Reverse (mainly because I knew exactly what I was gonna get…Linkin Park, but without any of the talent, musicianship, charisma, or humanity). I also didn’t bother with Hardy, Trapt, or Six Feet Under. I did listen to Wage War. I didn’t find it terrible, but I certainly found it disappointing. Manic was such a blast to listen to. Stigma felt like Manic’s B-sides that got left on the cutting room floor. Magnetic was a good song, but everything else was pretty forgettable. I’m a little surprised Skillet was only a dishonorable mention. As a longtime fan, I was really put off by their new one. John’s gone full “I am Christian Nationalist, hear me roar” and his lyrics are some of the most cringeworthy of the year. I’ve got tickets to meet them before a Winter Jam gig next year and I’m severely tempted to ask him…right before he HEADLINES AN ARENA SHOW…what exactly makes him so darn unpopular in the first place.
@@RockedNetI listened to it, if that’s what you can call it. Young me enjoyed early trapt (first two albums they had a couple good songs). But god, the fall is painful to listen to.

My 5 Paragraph Essay Outline: Introduction and Thesis Statement First Supporting Paragraph Second Supporting Paragraph Third Supporting Paragraph Conclusion
I used to be a falling in reverse fan up until I saw what direction he was going to. It’s actually such a waste, because FiR has some of the BEST produced tracks in the game with so much talent and it’s wasted on shitty political messages and social media hate. He could genuinely tell good stories at some point, but I guess people like mediocre content.
I’m glad FiR made this list because I’ve tried to listen to their stuff, and it just sucks….period. Radke is cringe, a giant crybaby (despite him claiming not to listen to the haters…he sure takes it personally), and he just genrehops too much and it’s not good. Looking forward to the Best of 2024 list!
All bands have haters, but no band has to make having haters their whole personality. I've seen plenty of online scraps, plenty of situations where formal apologies were called for, but nearly every musician moves on from it. Some will write a song or two, but if you disagree with their take they've still got plenty of normal material you can enjoy. I used to be interested in fir, but I read a few uncomfortable things about RR and decided to put them at the back of the shelf until they did some growing. It's been like eight years and these guys are STILL on their "everyone hates me but I'm too cool to care" bullshit and RR STILL doesn't know how to see his peers and fans as people worthy of respect. My brother, you're an adult. When are you gonna grow up?
I lost you at Revolution. I never really understand why people hate the album so much, i LOVE IT. I’ve never really seen someone give an actual reason why they don’t like it.
Nightwish's Yesterwynde is also another low point for the band, sadly, since I've been listening to them since 2003. Whatever magic that band still had walked right out of the door with Marko Hietala 💔
As soon as I heard that they lost Marko too, I knew it was hopeless. He and Tarja was the best combination, but when they fired her, some magic was still left because he stayed. Now, though...nope.
I can't help but feel like Ronnie was way better in Escape The Fate, and everything he's done since then has been for the worse for all of polite society
Popular monster is just an entire album of a man whining over the top of bad instrumentals. What I've heard on the radio is almost unlistenable. It sounds like what a group of 13 year olds would make after receiving their first instruments.
It continues to baffle me that FiR and Radke remain at all popular. At this it's gotta be some kind fake liking to be "ironic" or whatever, right? Right?
'Psycho' by Hardy rips off 'abcdefu' by Gayle which rips off 'Your Love by The Outfield and I do not know where The Outfield got Your Love from but this is not the gift that keeps on giving
Bit ironic of rr to complain about whiny fans. Who did he expect his whiny music to attract? (Though ofc in this case they did nothing wrong, cancelled shows do suck and as a band the least you can do is explain why you felt it was necessary to cancel)
As someone from Huntsville, AL, I hate that he's wearing a Huntsville Havoc shirt in the image you used at 12:44. The Havoc deserves better than Hardy.
Popular monster was nominated for album of the year over at Nik Nocturnal's awardable, so yeah, hell yeah they're popular as fuck. Your breakdown of the album was perfect. A few amazing passages in the album but oh my god the whining.
Look bro, only disagreement I have is you including "A Whole New Sound" in the dishonorable mentions. Personally, I enjoyed seeing it even if I think some of the covers could've been better. Personally was quite fond of Mayday Parade's cover of "Remember Me" in particular. But I also have long since realized I'm more into the pop punk scene than you are so that's also likely a factor in our disagreement here.
I’ll give Disney and pop punk credit. They both go hand-in-hand at being the biggest fall-offs in the current decade. And honestly, pop punk, in the modern era (2020 - present), is equivalent to the Disney live action remakes: all image and style, no substance.
@ I get that, but comparing the scene today to the scene in 2000 - 2009 and 2011 - 2018, it feels like wading through a sea of abysmal and obnoxious, MGK imitators with no skill in crafting a listenable tune to find the good stuff. And when you do find it, it feels as if you’ve heard the sound before but from someone doing it better.
I love how it seems like all these albums are for people who want to listen to rock, but don't know any better. Or they like them just to laugh at them.
Odd calling someone a crybaby as you cry about their success and make sweeping generalizations about their fan base. I don't really listen to Falling In Reverse much, but I listened to the album and thought it was solid (the breakdown critique is warranted). I also don't see what Ronnie's TikTok and Kik streaming has to do with the album. This seems personal or like you're trying to pander to certain people.
I can relate, especially with avoiding new music. It grinds me to think that there is some legit stuff out there that’s being ignored for such forgettable trash.
Damn you guys are picky. I found something to enjoy in mostly every one of these albums. Not every track on every album was a banger, But there are good tracks on every one of these albums.
Few notes on this - Skillet should been on the list, the song “Unpopular” is just John Cooper still not acknowledging that the band really fell off after the early 2010’s. (Sorry Juanes) - Totally understandable why Popular Monster is at number three and Falling in Reverse needs to break up now, they already cancelled a few shows and accept defeat. - Do I need an explanation on why Trapt was on the list? - I will repeat this again: Hardy. Shoud. Quit. Also the song “Rockstar” is just him making fallacies of himself.
For the 2nd year in a row we agreed on the Worst album of the year. Quit by Hardy just made me want to vomit. I could have given it to Popular Monster by Failing in Revere (did I say the name right? Who Cares, they suck) but that would mean actually listening to it. I have better things to do with my time than that.
Woah woah woah! Falling in Reverse is only at number 3? I'm scared about what's higher... Oh no... Trapt had a new album... and that's only number 2. I'm scared for number 1...
Popular Monster's metalcore instrumentals I can find some enjoyment in, stock-sounding or otherwise. Unfortunately, the more poorly forced hip-hop moments and Radke himself (per usual) wrecked that enjoyment fast. I didn't listen to it by seeking it out. My coworkers played it and it was unavoidable.
I think a Whole New Sound is pretty fun and had a good time with it. I like that they picked songs the usual disney cover albums don't pick like I2I and such. It may be because I'm a disney adult who adores Pop Punk and thats my favorite genre of music, I admit.
Presbyterian churches aren't all that prevalent in the south. That's more of a midwest thing. Cooper has criticized a lot of the new wave of progressive Christianity and the Presbyterians are one of the biggest supporters of it. Just say you don't care for Christian music and move on.
I feel like "Quit" was Hardy being self-aware and ironic about his circumstances, and not trying to adhere to the "country/bro rock" stigma. The songs "Rockstar" and "Radio Song" are prime examples of this. I'm no Hardy fan, but I still thought it was ok. Nothing earth-shattering, but definitely better than Trapt.
It never fails, usually the music I actually liked quite a bit lands on your Worst list. I loved Stigma. Especially their B-sides, but the general consensus seems to be negative for it.
Six feet under was always bad, falling in reverse was always bad and ronnie is a man child, trapt is somehow still around thats a surprise and i don't know what a hardy or stigma is lol
This year's While She Sleeps record SELF HELL should've made this list. Muddy production, some of the dumbest lyrics I've ever heard, the songwriting was ok at best.
I saw Skillet's new album at my local record store, brand new at full price. I honestly didn't know what to say. I mean, I saw them live with Seether, so I knew it was coming, but I still couldn't believe it.
honestly thought popular monster would have been higher, but after seeing 2 and 1 I can see why it was only 3rd. I'll admit it that I'm probably in the minority with the six feet under record that I found it pretty okay. i felt more let down by deicide's album this year.
I’m glad you pointed out the similar breakdowns fir have. I think using a pitch shifter with every song is cheating. Every once in a while it’s okay but having PM and Zombified having basically the same format annoys me. I didn’t to the rest of the album because I don’t care. Ronnie is annoying
Heavy disagree with popular monster. I felt that album was great. And the many singles are fantastic. And I personally don’t think Ronnie is a bad person. Make fun of you want. But that’s my opinion.
I know I don't need to, but I'm going to apologize to you anyway for having to listen to that Trapt album. I only heard small snippets of the songs on there and I felt like my soul was leaving my body.
I honestly don’t think Stigma is that bad Cody and Briton said that they just wanted to do whatever they wanted and have fun with the album and think it shows, but not in a bad way. Self Sacrifice, Tombstone, and NAIL5 are all incredible songs
I made the right choice to stop listening to skillet and fir, I was going to listen to trapt’s album after I listened to headstrong but oh well, I didn’t listen to them after the lead vocalist’s situation I read in reddit 💆🏻♀️💆🏻♀️ I listened to rock and metal last year (ik i’m pretty late 😭), and after watching this video, I won’t listen to these albums you’ve mentioned.
I know it’s late, but might as well give my two cents where I can. I already said my piece on popular monster a number of times. Even if there are worse sounding albums out there, even if it does have some decent qualities (I don’t even mind the breakdowns sounding similar…I’m a sucker for them. Idc), I still believe it deserves the top spot for what it represents and how successful it is. I will say I am kind of surprised to see Six Feet Under’s Killing for revenge on here, not because I like the album (I haven’t even listened to it in full), but because this album was honestly an improvement from their previous record from 2020 “Nightmares of the decomposed” which was an absolute trainwreck. I almost wonder where you’d rank that album on your worst list if you went back and listened to it…but that would require you to listen to NOTD which is the last thing you should do (Seriously, Chris Barnes’s vocals are a whole lot worse on that album, especially with the trademark EEEEE’s that he’s become infamous for, which are mercifully absent from KFR). Also surprised yet unsurprised to see Trapt on here after last time they released something, you brushed it off with a “what’s a Trapt?” I did expect Hardy to take the #1 spot and I wasn’t disappointed. I didn’t even bother listening to anything else from him after hearing “Rockstar”. There is something clearly wrong when even Nickelback can outdo you on your own song. And Motley Crue can piss off to a retirement home. The title track alone deserves to burn in a massive fire for reasons that the metal meltdown has described better than I can.
To be fair, Six Feet Under haven't released anything good or even passable since "Bringer of Blood." That was back in 2003. Ronnie Radke and Friends deserve a free spot on the worst list every year no matter what they release.
Hey @RockedNet as someone who listened to Skillet - Revolution, you didn't miss much. 10 songs on the album, 35 min total and maybe 2-3 songs were ok at best. There was just nothing; It was just a ton of mehhh
What do you think was the worst album of 2024?

@@whowastheoneguy4719 hard disagree but all art is subjective and all.
You really have to be terrible to be worse than Trapt
I had the best news of my life! Finally, Falling in Reverse is *not* coming to the UK after all out of the Home Office cancelling his visa! I'm spared of having to see people happily posting their selfies at their concerts.
So, I just viewed this at the most perfect time!
So you're just a stupid hater that wants to spoil the fun for others...
And people say the Home Office is incompetent.
There probably would have been a 73% chance he cancelled the show anyways.
A few days ago Radke was denied of entry in the UK bc of his 2008 prison sentence so he and his fans complain/cry about it or whatever at the UK government bc of it. One thing for sure is his visa wouldn't have been denied if only Radke just behaved himself, actions have consequences.
Radke also went as far as claiming the UK will suffer a giant economic hit 😂😂😂😂
As big as brexit?
Radke: Guys! Seriously! I'm the main reason why the UK even has an economy, OKAY!?! 🤡
Weird bc a lot of things I see show the UK being okay with a lot of terrible crimes. Maybe seek asylum and do a show?
I didn’t bother listening to Falling in Reverse (mainly because I knew exactly what I was gonna get…Linkin Park, but without any of the talent, musicianship, charisma, or humanity). I also didn’t bother with Hardy, Trapt, or Six Feet Under. I did listen to Wage War. I didn’t find it terrible, but I certainly found it disappointing. Manic was such a blast to listen to. Stigma felt like Manic’s B-sides that got left on the cutting room floor. Magnetic was a good song, but everything else was pretty forgettable.
I’m a little surprised Skillet was only a dishonorable mention. As a longtime fan, I was really put off by their new one. John’s gone full “I am Christian Nationalist, hear me roar” and his lyrics are some of the most cringeworthy of the year. I’ve got tickets to meet them before a Winter Jam gig next year and I’m severely tempted to ask him…right before he HEADLINES AN ARENA SHOW…what exactly makes him so darn unpopular in the first place.
You are most likely one of the like 5 people who even listened to the new Trapt album hehe
It's not an honor.
@@RockedNetI listened to it, if that’s what you can call it. Young me enjoyed early trapt (first two albums they had a couple good songs). But god, the fall is painful to listen to.
2:29 I wish Disney put as much effort into their recent film and TV output as they did with that admittedly adorable animation of Mickey rocking out.
Then again, he is rocking out with Simple Plan, so I doubt that will happen ever again

Conclusion
I used to be a falling in reverse fan up until I saw what direction he was going to. It’s actually such a waste, because FiR has some of the BEST produced tracks in the game with so much talent and it’s wasted on shitty political messages and social media hate. He could genuinely tell good stories at some point, but I guess people like mediocre content.
I’m glad FiR made this list because I’ve tried to listen to their stuff, and it just sucks….period. Radke is cringe, a giant crybaby (despite him claiming not to listen to the haters…he sure takes it personally), and he just genrehops too much and it’s not good.
Looking forward to the Best of 2024 list!
All bands have haters, but no band has to make having haters their whole personality. I've seen plenty of online scraps, plenty of situations where formal apologies were called for, but nearly every musician moves on from it. Some will write a song or two, but if you disagree with their take they've still got plenty of normal material you can enjoy.
I used to be interested in fir, but I read a few uncomfortable things about RR and decided to put them at the back of the shelf until they did some growing. It's been like eight years and these guys are STILL on their "everyone hates me but I'm too cool to care" bullshit and RR STILL doesn't know how to see his peers and fans as people worthy of respect. My brother, you're an adult. When are you gonna grow up?
I lost you at Revolution. I never really understand why people hate the album so much, i LOVE IT. I’ve never really seen someone give an actual reason why they don’t like it.
i'm actually surprised i predicted every album that was gonna be on the list.
Nightwish's Yesterwynde is also another low point for the band, sadly, since I've been listening to them since 2003. Whatever magic that band still had walked right out of the door with Marko Hietala 💔
As soon as I heard that they lost Marko too, I knew it was hopeless. He and Tarja was the best combination, but when they fired her, some magic was still left because he stayed. Now, though...nope.
I can't help but feel like Ronnie was way better in Escape The Fate, and everything he's done since then has been for the worse for all of polite society
Popular monster is just an entire album of a man whining over the top of bad instrumentals. What I've heard on the radio is almost unlistenable. It sounds like what a group of 13 year olds would make after receiving their first instruments.
Naw, that’s offensive to 13 year olds.
Hardy is like the new Kid Rock, but more boring
Buddy just doesn't like good music. No need to be getting mad people. Opinions do exist after all
It continues to baffle me that FiR and Radke remain at all popular. At this it's gotta be some kind fake liking to be "ironic" or whatever, right? Right?
People just like different shit. People like you love to hate. It's part of your personality. Many of us just want to listen to music.
Radle is the Hawk tuah girl of rock
'Psycho' by Hardy rips off 'abcdefu' by Gayle which rips off 'Your Love by The Outfield and I do not know where The Outfield got Your Love from but this is not the gift that keeps on giving
Ripping off abcdefu is wild. Tortoises all the way *down* huh
OK, so it wasn't just me hearing "abcdefu" in that godawful song. Hardy doesn't even have the excuse of being an overemotional teenager 😤
hardy looks like kid rock from the 2000s
You're telling me, in this, the year of our lord 2024, there was a new trapt album? Ain't no way.
They're not stopping anytime.. they're Headstrong after all.
@GarryLarryBarry the horrors never cease
I forgot they existed until about a week ago when Chris decided to get upset over some random list Loudwire published and Trapt weren’t on it, lol.
Bit ironic of rr to complain about whiny fans. Who did he expect his whiny music to attract? (Though ofc in this case they did nothing wrong, cancelled shows do suck and as a band the least you can do is explain why you felt it was necessary to cancel)
As someone from Huntsville, AL, I hate that he's wearing a Huntsville Havoc shirt in the image you used at 12:44. The Havoc deserves better than Hardy.
Popular monster was nominated for album of the year over at Nik Nocturnal's awardable, so yeah, hell yeah they're popular as fuck. Your breakdown of the album was perfect. A few amazing passages in the album but oh my god the whining.
Rather listen to Wage War over Skillet or the New Motley Crue
Look bro, only disagreement I have is you including "A Whole New Sound" in the dishonorable mentions.
Personally, I enjoyed seeing it even if I think some of the covers could've been better. Personally was quite fond of Mayday Parade's cover of "Remember Me" in particular.
But I also have long since realized I'm more into the pop punk scene than you are so that's also likely a factor in our disagreement here.

I’ll give Disney and pop punk credit. They both go hand-in-hand at being the biggest fall-offs in the current decade. And honestly, pop punk, in the modern era (2020 - present), is equivalent to the Disney live action remakes: all image and style, no substance.
There’s good modern pop punk, it’s just overshadowed by shitty MGK imitators and “DID I JUST WRITE THE SONG OF THE SUMMER???” guys
@ I get that, but comparing the scene today to the scene in 2000 - 2009 and 2011 - 2018, it feels like wading through a sea of abysmal and obnoxious, MGK imitators with no skill in crafting a listenable tune to find the good stuff. And when you do find it, it feels as if you’ve heard the sound before but from someone doing it better.
I love how it seems like all these albums are for people who want to listen to rock, but don't know any better. Or they like them just to laugh at them.
Odd calling someone a crybaby as you cry about their success and make sweeping generalizations about their fan base. I don't really listen to Falling In Reverse much, but I listened to the album and thought it was solid (the breakdown critique is warranted). I also don't see what Ronnie's TikTok and Kik streaming has to do with the album. This seems personal or like you're trying to pander to certain people.
I typically avoid the newest music anymore because it’s usually garbage. It sounds horrible and innovative musicians and bands are ignored anymore.
I can relate, especially with avoiding new music. It grinds me to think that there is some legit stuff out there that’s being ignored for such forgettable trash.
It ain't really the end of the year until the music channels release their lists
Damn you guys are picky. I found something to enjoy in mostly every one of these albums. Not every track on every album was a banger, But there are good tracks on every one of these albums.
Few notes on this
- Skillet should been on the list, the song “Unpopular” is just John Cooper still not acknowledging that the band really fell off after the early 2010’s. (Sorry Juanes)
- Totally understandable why Popular Monster is at number three and Falling in Reverse needs to break up now, they already cancelled a few shows and accept defeat.
- Do I need an explanation on why Trapt was on the list?
- I will repeat this again: Hardy. Shoud. Quit. Also the song “Rockstar” is just him making fallacies of himself.
The one redeeming quality of Hardy is his drummer, Harry Miree. That guy is awesome. 👍👍
For the 2nd year in a row we agreed on the Worst album of the year. Quit by Hardy just made me want to vomit. I could have given it to Popular Monster by Failing in Revere (did I say the name right? Who Cares, they suck) but that would mean actually listening to it. I have better things to do with my time than that.
I'm surprised that while covering "Killing For Revenge", you didn't touch upon that god awful Nazareth cover as the final track
We know "Popular Monster" the track is great so at least there's that. We can listen to that and not cringe.
Ronnie the clown's solo album appeared five times in a row on this list, which was well-deserved.
Woah woah woah! Falling in Reverse is only at number 3? I'm scared about what's higher...
Oh no... Trapt had a new album... and that's only number 2. I'm scared for number 1...
“I personally will respond to every 5 paragraph response.” Your funeral my dude.
In speaking of Six Feet Under, how did "Nightmares of the Decomposed" not make the 2020 list?
Popular Monster's metalcore instrumentals I can find some enjoyment in, stock-sounding or otherwise. Unfortunately, the more poorly forced hip-hop moments and Radke himself (per usual) wrecked that enjoyment fast.
I didn't listen to it by seeking it out. My coworkers played it and it was unavoidable.
Hey man, don’t lump Presbyterians in with those megachurch weirdos
I think a Whole New Sound is pretty fun and had a good time with it. I like that they picked songs the usual disney cover albums don't pick like I2I and such. It may be because I'm a disney adult who adores Pop Punk and thats my favorite genre of music, I admit.
Presbyterian churches aren't all that prevalent in the south. That's more of a midwest thing. Cooper has criticized a lot of the new wave of progressive Christianity and the Presbyterians are one of the biggest supporters of it.
Just say you don't care for Christian music and move on.
I feel like "Quit" was Hardy being self-aware and ironic about his circumstances, and not trying to adhere to the "country/bro rock" stigma. The songs "Rockstar" and "Radio Song" are prime examples of this. I'm no Hardy fan, but I still thought it was ok. Nothing earth-shattering, but definitely better than Trapt.
Hardy looks like he’s having a hardytack on stage
I just heard Skillet's song Unpopular and noped out of all new music from that band.
Wage War's new album was indeed heartbreaking to listen to.
Yeah I'm glad I took a break from Skillet.
TBH, I liked the pop punk cover of I2I from The Goofy Movie.
FiR album is good yall just mad that we dont like the same stuff as you do
It never fails, usually the music I actually liked quite a bit lands on your Worst list. I loved Stigma. Especially their B-sides, but the general consensus seems to be negative for it.
FiR had some decent parts. I can't confidently put them at the worst.
Six feet under was always bad, falling in reverse was always bad and ronnie is a man child, trapt is somehow still around thats a surprise and i don't know what a hardy or stigma is lol
Ronnies attitude makes his music worse even if some of the songs are good respectfully
This year's While She Sleeps record SELF HELL should've made this list.
Muddy production, some of the dumbest lyrics I've ever heard, the songwriting was ok at best.
My worst albums of 2024:
From Hell I Rise by Kerry King
Killing for Revenge by Six Feet Under
Dark Side of The Brain by Flat Black
Quit by Hardy
Why Flat Black? I actually enjoyed it. It wasn't great, but I did like a lot of the songs on it
@ It was just too repetitive for my taste. If you enjoyed it, that’s fine.
Rock Worst album of year
1. Imagine Dragons LOOM
2. Coldplay Moon Music
3. Hardy quit
4. Trapt the fall
@@maryannappiagyei4277Imagine Dragons and Coldplay are absolutely not rock.
0:35 I would much rather listen to people talk about things they like than things they don't.
Yeah, I agree. It can be tiring to listen to someone complain. I get giving criticism, but a lot is just hate watching/listening.
I saw Skillet's new album at my local record store, brand new at full price. I honestly didn't know what to say. I mean, I saw them live with Seether, so I knew it was coming, but I still couldn't believe it.
honestly thought popular monster would have been higher, but after seeing 2 and 1 I can see why it was only 3rd. I'll admit it that I'm probably in the minority with the six feet under record that I found it pretty okay. i felt more let down by deicide's album this year.
I’m glad you pointed out the similar breakdowns fir have. I think using a pitch shifter with every song is cheating. Every once in a while it’s okay but having PM and Zombified having basically the same format annoys me. I didn’t to the rest of the album because I don’t care. Ronnie is annoying
Heavy disagree with popular monster. I felt that album was great. And the many singles are fantastic. And I personally don’t think Ronnie is a bad person. Make fun of you want. But that’s my opinion.
They could never make me hate Hardy.
But I completely get why others do. It’s fine lol.
I know I don't need to, but I'm going to apologize to you anyway for having to listen to that Trapt album. I only heard small snippets of the songs on there and I felt like my soul was leaving my body.
Lol my 65 year old mom loves the Disney cd. I give it a little bit of a pass since it makes her happy
12:26 what monster was behind this?
this video is how I found out HARDY put out another album this year, man that really came and went huh
I honestly don’t think Stigma is that bad Cody and Briton said that they just wanted to do whatever they wanted and have fun with the album and think it shows, but not in a bad way. Self Sacrifice, Tombstone, and NAIL5 are all incredible songs
I made the right choice to stop listening to skillet and fir, I was going to listen to trapt’s album after I listened to headstrong but oh well, I didn’t listen to them after the lead vocalist’s situation I read in reddit 💆🏻♀️💆🏻♀️ I listened to rock and metal last year (ik i’m pretty late 😭), and after watching this video, I won’t listen to these albums you’ve mentioned.
I know it’s late, but might as well give my two cents where I can.
I already said my piece on popular monster a number of times. Even if there are worse sounding albums out there, even if it does have some decent qualities (I don’t even mind the breakdowns sounding similar…I’m a sucker for them. Idc), I still believe it deserves the top spot for what it represents and how successful it is.
I will say I am kind of surprised to see Six Feet Under’s Killing for revenge on here, not because I like the album (I haven’t even listened to it in full), but because this album was honestly an improvement from their previous record from 2020 “Nightmares of the decomposed” which was an absolute trainwreck. I almost wonder where you’d rank that album on your worst list if you went back and listened to it…but that would require you to listen to NOTD which is the last thing you should do (Seriously, Chris Barnes’s vocals are a whole lot worse on that album, especially with the trademark EEEEE’s that he’s become infamous for, which are mercifully absent from KFR). Also surprised yet unsurprised to see Trapt on here after last time they released something, you brushed it off with a “what’s a Trapt?”
I did expect Hardy to take the #1 spot and I wasn’t disappointed. I didn’t even bother listening to anything else from him after hearing “Rockstar”. There is something clearly wrong when even Nickelback can outdo you on your own song.
And Motley Crue can piss off to a retirement home. The title track alone deserves to burn in a massive fire for reasons that the metal meltdown has described better than I can.
To be fair, Six Feet Under haven't released anything good or even passable since "Bringer of Blood." That was back in 2003. Ronnie Radke and Friends deserve a free spot on the worst list every year no matter what they release.
I can’t imagine being in a massively successful band and making fun of my fans for being upset that they didn’t get to see my band play.
Like. What.
Hey @RockedNet as someone who listened to Skillet - Revolution, you didn't miss much. 10 songs on the album, 35 min total and maybe 2-3 songs were ok at best. There was just nothing; It was just a ton of mehhh
I'm glad I missed out.
I honestly don’t get people who disagree with the opinions in these videos. They’re right and spot on.
Does anyone else think Hardy looks like a heavier Kid Rock?
