I was recently thinking about all the follow up records I've bought to albums that I've really loved. In particular, the ones that were a huge letdown. The kind that I've spun over and over again in the vague hope that something will click. Almost trying to force myself into liking them. And that, many years / decades later, I still return to and wonder if they'll finally win me over. These are the ones that, try as I might, continue to disappoint. Even if they do have the odd good track or two. What are yours?

Skid Row - Subhuman Race
Live - Secret Samadhi
Aerosmith - Nine Lives
Taylor Swift - Reputation
Joe Bonamassa - Black Rock
Ash - Twilight Of The Innocents
Pearl Jam - Vs
Goo Goo Dolls - Let Love In
Matchbox Twenty - North
Oasis - Be Here Now
Manic Street Preachers - Know Your Enemy
The killers - Day & Age
