Ask Lemmy

P.O.D. I legitimately did not know they released other albums because Satellite was that good. I listened to them. I shouldn’t have.

Boston is the first that comes to mind for me. there's their self-titled which is easily one of the best records of all time, and then everything that came wasn't exactly bad but it was nowhere near the same level

The Queen is Dead is the only Smiths album I like, the others just don't do it for me.

Pearl jam has fallen so far and that's all I'll say about it.

Morbid Angel Blessed Are The Sick. To me, they have never reached the peak of their second album. A was okay, too. But after B I would eagerly listen to C and D when they came out and just never felt the same enthusiasm as I did for B. I gave up and moved on even though I later went back and listened to F, G, and H, and F is interesting because it is so strange but I can’t really recall much about the other two. Never bothered with I, and that’s where my tale ends.

Sleigh Bells - Treats

The Go! Team - Thunder, Lightning, Strike

Hooray For Earth - True Loves

Broken Social Scene - You Forgot It In People

Dayglow - Fuzzybrain

The Dismemberment Plan - Emergency & I

Fountains of Wayne - Welcome Interstate Managers

I think the popularity of Stacy’s Mom really scared them. But everything on the album is amazing. Interstate Managers was their third album. The other two albums following Interstate Managers were good, but not at that power pop level that Interstate Managers reached.

Groove Armada’s Black Light.

I highly doubt if anyone but me is listening to it.

One of my favourite black metal albums is Rain Upon the Impure by The Ruins of Beverast. Nothing he's done before or since comes even close to the perfection of that album.

Closure in Moscow, Pink Lemonade is an incredible album with such amazing style and intensity and I don't understand how it's the same band as some of their other things.

Other Tragically Hip albums have some standout tracks, but the only album of theirs I really enjoy beginning-to-end is Fully Completely.

wall of voodoo and fine young canibals but its not like they had huge discographys although I love stan ridgeways later solo stuff.

The album Colours from Graffiti6 was so good, I'm still mad about the crap album they released after that (it was also their last)...

And to a lesser extend, Miike Snow's first album was sooo good. Everything they've put out after that was mediocre at best.

Alt-J has also been going down hill ever since the first album. It's still decent, but if I had to rate the albums from good to bad, it would be equal to the release order. Saw them live two years ago and it was meh as well.

NoFX - White Trash Two Heebs and a Bean

Grandaddy - The Sophtware Slump

Boston, the Cars, but there are so many one hit wonders imo

Remo Drive - Greatest Hits (which isn't a greatest hits album) definitely fits the description. It's extra sad since it's their debut album, so it falls into your sophomore slump category. I respect the decision to not repeat themselves though, but I can't help to feel like they would be able to make an album that both pleases the fans garnered from the first, and which isn't just a rehash.
