    Down In Albion
    'Down in Albion' is a truly abhorrent and occasionally upsetting record.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 10 Critic Score
    Tales Don't Tell Themselves
    As concept albums go, this one wears very thin very quickly.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 10 Critic Score
    The Young Machines
    It must take a fair amount of skill and a peculiar single-mindedness to create something this consistently bland and tiresome.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 10 Critic Score
    Make Believe
    You can feel how dreadful this record is from the very first bar.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 10 Critic Score
    A Funk Odyssey
    Excruciating, toe-curling Pain, the sort that makes you want to leap through windows or run over children.
    • 28 Metascore

    Hefty Fine
    There are already too many Bloodhound Gang albums in the world. This one should be recalled and recycled. Into something that's not a Bloodhound Gang album, obviously.

    D12 World
    This record is about as bad it is possible for a record to be. It is offensive on every level - the music is bad, the rapping is bad, the sleeve is bad.

    It Won't Be Soon Before Long
    Listen to this record and you realise that by comparison, Robbie Williams does actually have some soul. And if that's not a damning indictment of one of the most execrable records you're likely to hear this decade, I don't know what is.

    Empire
    What we're offered here is pretty much a second take on the discordant beeps, Mani-ripped basslines and lazy hip hop breaks of their first album, with the addition of some hideously nipped and tucked string samples padding out their attempted lyrical bravado.

    Blitzkrieg Pop
    [An] irritating abomination.

    Brassbound
    This bears the same relationship to pop music that wallpaper paste does to food.
    • 33 Metascore
    • 0 Critic Score
    Results May Vary
    This is so so crap.

    Rudebox
    His new lyrical equation seems to be rip off someone else's words, add some street slang that would have been out of date five years ago, mention some brand names, say something offensive and then shoe horn it all together.
