| Platy's 10 Worst Releases of 2022
I decided to do it after all! I've made a point to stop listening to music that I already know is gonna suck, so I didn't know if I'd have enough stinkers this year to form a whole list - but sure enough, I had exactly 10 releases rated at a 2 or lower this year! I'm sure I'll upset somebody, but isn't that part of the fun? | | 10 |  | Avril Lavigne
Love Sux
Dear Avril, you're nearing 40, cut this shit out.
How is it that she wrote better, more mature music when she was literally a teenager? This album just reeks of someone desperate to stay relevant in today's changing music scene. | | 9 |  | Hollywood Undead
Hotel Kalifornia
Hollywood Undead is at least good for some guilty pleasures here and there, even if they've never made a truly great album. But this? It's just boring. I can't even say it's terrible, it just didn't leave any impression on me, good or bad. | | 8 |  | Demi Lovato
Holy Fvck
If you think I'm being mean by having this in my list of the 10 worst releases, just be glad it's only #8. When this was released, I honestly anticipated it being in my top 3 of this list, so I guess that's something.
Not even gonna lie, personal bias plays a part in this since I've never been a fan of Lovato, but this is just as cringey (if not more so) than Love Sux. | | 7 |  | Weezer
SZNZ: Spring
Yikes, this is easily the worst of the SZNZ series. It reminds me of all the bad parts of Weezer's discography. Thank goodness the other three were better. | | 6 |  | Papa Roach
Ego Trip
Yikes [2], much like Hollywood Undead, Papa Roach has always been good for at least a few guilty pleasures per album, but this one just sucked. The lowpoint comes in whatever song Jacoboy whispers "sweat, sweat," in over again. I don't even want to go through the effort of finding what song it was. | | 5 |  | Panic! At the Disco
Viva Las Vengeance
I feel like Urie is trying SO HARD to win back old fans of P!ATD, but between his antics as a person, plus all the accusations against him being an overall POS, PLUS the fact that this album is boring as shit and rips off like 80 different (and better) artists' sounds, I don't think he's getting those old fans back. Rest in peace to any hope I had that P!ATD would make another good album some day. | | 4 |  | Ada Rook
UGLY DEATH NO REDEMPTION ANGEL CURSE I LOVE YOU
What the hell is this?? I'm willing to chalk this one up to "it's not for me," but I have to imagine that my feeling when hearing this for the first time was similar to an 80's midwestern Catholic mother hearing Slayer for the first time. | | 3 |  | Asking Alexandria
Never Gonna Learn
Never Gonna Learn? More like never gonna make another good album! Am I right??
All joking aside, this EP is lazy as hell. It's just two songs that they'd already released a year ago, plus two other shittier songs. This band really aught to just hang it up at this point.
Actually wait! I just realized (long after posting this list) that they've made my "10 Worst" list every year of the decade so far, so keep it going Asking Alexandria! Let's shoot for ten years straight. | | 2 |  | Machine Gun Kelly
Mainstream Sellout
Ugh. I hate everything about this man and his music. As one of my only two 1's this year, it was honestly a toss up between this and #1 for what the worst was of this year. But at least this has some entertainment value, even if it's just me laughing at how bad of a musician Colson Baker is. If this guy really is the face of the new wave of pop-punk, then God help us. | | 1 |  | Kim Petras
Slut Pop
And this is it! What in the ever-loving fuck is this EP?? It's just 15-20 minutes of recycled techno beats with overly vulgar and repetitive sexual lyrics. I'm not trying to seem like some kind of prude - I don't hate on music just for being sexual, but this is just too much. Add to it the fact that it's produced by Dr. Luke (yikes [3]) and there's just no way I could justify having this any lower than #1. I'll die happy if I never hear a song from this EP ever again. | |

12.29.22 | I look forward to the civilizied and nuanced discussion that this list will cause! Cheers to another great year! Already looking forward to whatever garbage comes out in 2023. | Jasdevi087
12.29.22 | kinda crazy cause no one asked you to listen to these | JoyfulPlatypus
12.29.22 | Kinda crazy because I did anyway | JoyfulPlatypus
12.29.22 | @Johnny - Bold statement, but I respect you for saying it! We'll have to agree to disagree though ;) | robertsona
12.29.22 | Goodfight - Goodfight they trash… | alamo
12.29.22 | It's just 15-20 minutes of recycled techno beats with overly vulgar and repetitive sexual lyrics
ok i'm sold checking it now | heck
12.29.22 | you obviously just hate strong women in music | BlazinBlitzer
12.29.22 | Ain't no way 4 or 8 is worse than that new Black Eyed Peas album. | JoyfulPlatypus
12.29.22 | @Blazin - Oh god I don't wanna imagine what the new Black Eyed Peas must be like | JoyfulPlatypus
12.31.22 | @heck/Johnny - Damn, you got me! And I woulda gotten anyway with it too if you weren't for you meddling kids! | Sinternet
12.31.22 | 4 rules. 1 is becoming overhated but its easily the worst kim petras project, i'd def recommend her other stuff | JoyfulPlatypus
12.31.22 | @Sinternet - I really did mean it when I said that 4 just ain't for me. Maybe in hindsight I didn't need to put it so low all things considered, but still. And I'd like to think anything else Kim Petras has done just HAS to be better than Slut Pop lol so maybe I'll check out her other stuff some day. |
