Post the biggest drop in quality from one album to the next


Burn

Recommended Posts

Name some times when an artist has released a fantastic album which was followed up with a terrible / questionable effort?

The Sweet Escape has some good songs (title track, 4 In The Morning, Early Winter) but some of them are just god awful (Fluorescent, Breakin' Up, Yummy).

Not a bad album, just nowhere near as much of a masterpiece as its predecessor

The Sweet Escape is a PHENOM album. Not far behind LAMB.

FROOT (a 5/5) -> Love + Fear (a 2.5/5 on a VERY GOOD day, on a bad day... girl)

Love her but this will always come to mind instantly. The quality drop was beyond my imagination. 

 

A few others (although I do enjoy and like the followup albums)

 

Melodrama -> Solar Power

Born This Way -> ARTPOP

Evermore -> Midnights

SAWAYAMA -> Hold The Girl

 

I'm not exaggerating when I say that's one of the biggest quality dips in recent years :rip:

Quite the opposite. I might say that's the biggest improvement in quality from one album to the next :cm:

I'm probably the only one who thinks The Sweet Escape > LAMB, but both are stellar albums.

 

I feel like Dua's Furure Nostalgia to Radical Optimism is the best example of this.

LITERALLY!! 

 

I'm glad she redeemed herself on Ancient Dreams in a Modern Land. it's not my fav Marina album but it's still great and recaptures her magic that I thought she had lost completely on L+F

I'm very excited to hear what she has in store for the next one, it feels like she's continued to regain her mojo

It's true, though. Even debut is a lot better. She really phoned it in… :suburban:

PARIS to Infinite Icon

I love Paris but idk the new albums not out yet but the singles don't slay like her first album just yet... Sia is taking it in a direction I didn't want! :rogue:

 

Wild Hope to Amanda Leigh/Silver Landings/In Real Life

Also I adore Mandy Moore, but that new producer she's been working with (Mike Viola) for her last 3 albums have created a snoozefest after her magnum opus Wild Hope :rogue:

 

Hilary Duff(self titled) to Most Wanted

A 'Best Of' collection after only 2 albums! The singles slayed but there were only a handful of new songs here after her 17 song self-titled masterpiece.

SHE WOLF
Bangerz
Innovative Mixture of EDM with World Music. Unique at the time
Big palette of genres (Like 8-9) experimentation
Shakira looked so fashionable and glamorous this era
She was really invested and worked hard for this album. 

She_Wolf.png>>>>>>Shakira_-_Sale_el_Sol_(album_cover).jpg

SALE EL SOL
Filled with basic merengues she bought from Dominican singer El Cata

Has one of the most disgustin and tacky tracks of her career "Gordita" with rene from calle 13 (this guy is the worst)
The songs are really short and she's pulling basically the same tricks of the past (ballad+latin+rock)
Looked a mess in this era fashion wise. 
Fell deeply in love with Gerard Pique
Have some great tracks but half of the album is a mess
This is when things went wrong for her. When she went lazy and just released music for the sake of it and the charts. Nosedive moment
