MOST DISAPPOINTING ALBUMS OF 2018 (imo)

[@AnnaGrxdxwski]

the 1975 ? I think their new album is the best

[@gibbysmoviecorner8286]

i personally think it’s the worse, but everyone has their own opinion. yours is cool, but hers is cool too.

[@isabela5290]

definitely, i absolutely loved this album

[@nomoreyt4657]

I actually really like Mania. But however, FOB’s older stuff is way better.

[@TheRandomExplorer]

Controversial opinion but i think Mania was a "blip" in Fall Out Boy's career and I can't wait to forget it as soon as possible

[@taylorr7106]

Hiiiiii

[@zacharycremen7545]

Erik Ruiz well, there is denying it

[@totesme14]

I agree with your 1975 commentary; hit it right on the head. Their previous album had so many bops as well as some beautiful mellow tracks.

[@Awstenkemonito]

Wtf boom boom room is a piece of art i can't understand it

[@patrickgibsonmusic]

Oh what? Who would have thought it? Mania in the thumbnail?

[@InfinityOnHannah]

YEAHH I KNOW BC I THINK EVERYONE FORGOT HOW I FEEL ABOUT IT

[@avanicollle]

Mania, mania, mania, mania, mania, mania oh and did I mention mania? Edit: I’m so mad about that Grammy nomination 😂 it’s not like it did that great even, where was a Grammy for like idk save rock and roll? The hype was real for that one. Just ugh everything before mania was just so huge and they just made so much hype and then... this..

[@ericdouglas7933]

Folie Ava Deux even wiser got a nomination to for that album

[@madeleinep.828]

Agree, this album absolutely tanked on the charts. It also didn't have huge hit songs like SRAR and AB/AP, why didn't those albums get nominations?

[@iliketrains3495]

Yeah, how tf did that get nominated and not IOH and FaD back in the day?

[@poppunkpresentpast2518]

Interesting commentary on The 1975 record. This is actually the first one by them that I’ve thoroughly enjoyed.

[@DeathRider1298]

Some that let me down American dream - trophy eyes Pray for the wicked - panic at the disco Simulation theory - Muse I am human - escape the fate Evolution- disturbed Would be MANIA on there but I wasn't expecting much after hearing Young and Menace so I can't say it was a let down

[@canadascoolcovers8065]

PFTW didn't let me down just because I had not heard any of the other songs from Panic! yet. It was the first album I had heard by them. I now know all of their songs though and I do know that some of their songs in the past had been more deep maybe...still I am obsessed with PFTW!! Lol 😂 but, it makes me wonder what is going to come from them next. What I love about Panic! is that you never know what Brendon is going to do next! He is a very unpredictable person when it comes to music! Lol every album has seemed to revolve around a different genre which I kind of like because if you get sick of the sound of one album, you can go to a different panic! album and not be sick of it because it's completely different.

[@aidanserviss]

I respectfully disagree with your opinion on the 1975 but I do see the validity of the points about it.

[@zacharycremen7545]

I DEFINITELY agree with PFTW being a letdown, but honestly, MANIA was a pretty good album in my opinion. Tracks like Church, Stay Frosty, HOLD ME TIGHT, and Bishop’s Knife Trick really exceeded my expectations in the best way possible.

[@hollysmyth2704]

Agreed! While MANIA is definitely not my favorite FOB album, I find a lot of the tracks to be catchy and enjoyable to listen to.

[@TokyoBlue587]

I liked Church, Wilson, Hold Me Tight

[@juicybucky9647]

It’s so nice to see someone who isn’t absolutely dissing it

[@juliejealousy]

Your makeup looks so good here!! 💕 I was disappointed by some of these as well

[@TokyoBlue587]

I loved Boom Boom Room Side B though. Just was disappointed that it wasn't a longer album.

[@skeptical_princess0497]

Yeah, that was the only problem I have with the album

[@mystupidworld2478]

I loved Spring by Wallows

[@jasonwalter8516]

Entertainment disappointed me at first but then I gave it some time off and when I came back to it I absolutely loved it to be honest.

[@InfinityOnHannah]

That’s cool! I definitely enjoy most of the record but DD will always be my favorite

[@55nova]

same! and hearing most of the album live also made me enjoy it more

[@austinsanniota]

SO happy Proper Dose didn’t make this list. I think I saw that you liked it. I thought it was possibly one of their best yet!

[@InkAndPoet]

It was her second favorite. First went to TRENCH.

[@BBDOT]

some of the lyrics on entertainment are kinda cheesy (yes especially on lucky people lol) but the instrumental on it blew me away particularly the drums on 11:11 were awesome

[@LauraWinchester]

i love your videos but i have to strongly disagree with palaye royale being on the list lol

[@InfinityOnHannah]

🤷🏼‍♀️

[@LauraWinchester]

Alex Vanderspek that’s only sebastian and all he said was people exploit and use it for excuses and attention

[@LauraWinchester]

Alex Vanderspek any anyways dosent effect there music and the rest of the band said they don’t agree with what he said he apologised and it’s in the past

[@CoffeePotGames]

My most disappointing album of 2018 was the new Parkway Drive album

[@harrytighe686]

The new parkway drive album is absolutely amazing

[@DashieNegan41]

Not really but your opinion

[@KoaAbyss]

Damn I actually really can't stand like 50% of Mania, it's full of a bunch of their worst songs they've ever made and it's actually baffling how bad it is. My biggest disappointment this year was Past Lives by Against the Current because it was SUCH a throwaway trashy boring pop piece of garbage and it literally had TWO actually good songs on there. The rest were either very okay or absolutely fucking awful. That album, and Disease by Beartooth. About half that album has pretty boring songs like Fire and You Never Know and stuff, plus as kickass as the screams are on Bad Listener, the lyrics are shit. Oh, also the new Escape The Fate album is REAAAAAAAAAALLY bad, makes the new ATC album look like platinum or some shit, it's easily the worst album i've heard all year.

[@PopCrusher]

Mania is still a good album. Though it is quite different from FOB’s older stuff, it’s still pretty good. And Pray For The Wicked is amazing. Dying In LA is a great song 👍

[@thetragedyofcommons]

living proof’s album cover is such a turnoff too like i would not wanna listen to any of it based on the cover art. u can honestly tell exactly what the music is gonna sound like just by looking at it.

[@valentinamarchesini3693]

MANIA? REALLY??? ( i'm kidding mania was awful). I've missed you hannah 💕

[@nozzaboy316kid]

I have to disagree with you on The 1975 it's there best yet and I love the other two and the early eps as well. It's just this seems like this one is a better all round album and for me it might be my album of the year but i'm not sure yet.

[@kariflores4272]

Personally, I really loved the Wallows EP but, I think you're right about them not making it an album instead of an EP

[@browniesghost4934]

I completely agree with your opinion on Living Proof, I was very very excited for the new record because State Champs stands as one of my favorite bands, but I dont think I can really name a song I really enjoy off the album besides Criminal, it's just a forgettable album for me, compared to the past 2 records it just doesnt grab me

[@ZackBackpackingAroundTheWorld]

I loved “raining in Kyoto” off the new Wonder Years album. Other than that. Yes. It did let me down very much. I pretty much agree with you on all of this. Although I feel Real Friends ‘composure’ should be on this list too.

[@InfinityOnHannah]

Tbh I thought composure was a big step up for RF.

[@cbreezee8594]

I think the right word to describe the new 1975 album is "meh." It's got some songs that I really like but most of the album is just boring to me.

[@TokyoBlue587]

Scooby Doo I liked a few songs but love the previous albums more

[@lindsayday4181]

I thought I was the only one who thought that about the Wallows EP. I bought all the singles but not this EP because everything was too mellow and it had no variation in sound, it just bored me and it sucks because I played the heck out of Sun Tan, Pleaser, Pulling Leaves Off Trees, Uncomfortable and Pictures of Girls

[@InfinityOnHannah]

Same!! All of those singers are literally bangers and the EP just felt lifeless

[@juicybucky9647]

it makes me so sad seeing so many people hating mania :( the album means so much to me and it succeeded all my expectations. I try to see people’s point of view as best I can, but the people hating just because they don’t like the “sound”, I just don’t understand that.

[@MarDelaCruz]

Okay! So Waterparks is like my favorite band so I’m REALLY BIAS! But at first with Entertainment I was like “Oh this isn’t as good as Double Dare ahhk” but as the year went on it really grew on me. Also Not Warriors is like my favorite Waterparks song now ! I wasn’t shocked that it was on here but kind of am😂

[@InkAndPoet]

Living Proof was disappointing to me too. But it kinda grew on me. By the way, did you hear Grayscale have released a new album?

[@InfinityOnHannah]

What do you mean????????????

[@InkAndPoet]

@@InfinityOnHannah, it's called Love Lost. It popped up in my Google announcements. But I do NOT recommend listening to it. It's honestly weird and just instrumentals. But it IS by Grayscale.

[@nvthvxn9627]

Neo Drama it’s not the band Grayscale. It’s a electronic artist called GrayScale lol

[@InkAndPoet]

@@nvthvxn9627, then why is it that when I went to the channel, the BAND showed up?

[@nvthvxn9627]

Neo Drama the channel “Grayscale” is a topic based channel. Any artist who distributes through a a distribution company as that name will get their music uploaded there. If it’s not on fearless records and the band haven’t mentioned it, it’s probably not them.

[@fun101productions9]

Hanna what did you think about the new(ish) Eminem album

[@SPCLDAY612]

Part of the reason why i like the 1975 is the r&b undertone influence they've showed in their music, abiior to me they pretty much displayed it in more foreword way writing wise and music wise in the album cuts and sincerity is scary so i can see why people would be let down or have it as their personal favorite but acknowledging it as the third good album in their discography

[@izabelstewart7594]

yes!! you posted!💓

[@madeleinep.828]

I respect your opinion but I don’t really understand why so many people seem to dislike Spring EP by Wallows.

[@nina_scholten]

Personally I really liked living proof, definitely one of my favourite albums of 2018, however I agree it’s basically around the world and back 2.0

[@thespontaneousgamer1639]

Living proof and a brief inquiry into online relationships were the best albums on the list.

[@sugardextrose]

The thing that makes sense about you finding DOAB not as good as previous albums and PFTW kinda dissapointg is that those are the albums that Brendon produced on his own lol that's his actual lyrical potential. Well, for some reason V&V is still better than the albums that came next (IMO) even though he was less experienced in composing. But you can notice how simple lyrics in TWTLTRTD are. Ryan Ross is the real genius behind most of what made AFYCSO and P.O. so great and unique. Don't get me wrong, i love Brendon and i think he's insanely tallented, but he'll never reach that complexity level bc it wasn't his. Honestly i think he should have dropped the Panic name a long time ago, since it's obviously just for commercial pourposes...

[@catloverkitten10]

Thanks for video Hannah. You don't have to apologise for your thoughtful opinions on music. Loving everything that your favorite bands put out is not healthy for the listener or the artist. So constructive criticism is welcome or should be. ( One of my favorite bands put out a trash single that actually shocked me though it has Top 40 appeal. I'm praying it's just temporary insanity and not a trend.)

[@mikazvis6231]

controversial opinion but, I loved Mania and Pray For The Wicked...

[@swingtheheartache6618]

Tbh the new bullet for my valentine album disappointed me personally, i mean well it's ok and there are a few amazing songs but it's just like sooo generic n everything sounds thhe same, like venom was good too although it's not one of their older efforts, actually pretty new. Bfmv is a rollercoaster album-wise.

[@zachreeder8902]

My biggest dissapointment of the year was Identity Crisis by WSTR. Their debut was my AOTY last year, the new one is my worst album of the year pick. Super sad. Also super sad to see Sister Cities and Living Proof here, both were in my top 10 lol.

[@blacktide888]

I would say some of the most disappointing albums for me this year were the new Maroon 5 album “ Red pill Blues, Reputation by Taylor Swift, “ Human by Escape the fate, although there are some really great songs on that album, some of the best they’ve done. And “ The world on drugs” by Future and Juice World.

[@ejenplitobarces]

My most disappointing record of 2018 was Blaze Away by Morcheeba. I know this video was uploaded 2 years ago but nevermind, I just wanted to say this

[@germanbushin9723]

Agreed on Moose Blood and FOB, State Champs had some decent bops, but yeah, still a letdown. The 1975 was surprisingly good though, I feel like it's their best album to date.

[@eliassolomon5038]

Starcrusier is actually my album of the year

[@DishingUpTheDodgers]

I’m surprised about how much hate MANIA gets. I personally like MANIA and Entertainment. Have you listened to the new MXPX album that came out this year? They were one of the bands I was obsessed with when I was your age. Rock music is in such a weird place now. Not a huge fan of Panic or Imagine Dragons lol which seem so popular right now. *Old punk rock lady yells at cloud*

[@Skiller131]

I agree with everything but Entertainment by Waterparks. I absolutely loved that album. My opinion, of course. Wonder Years too. That's the first album by them that I will not repeat

[@b.c.8511]

Still gotta check out some of these albums and bands, but from what I know, Mania was a major letdown and PFTW wasn't Panic!'s best nor their worst (it's like my 4th favorite).

[@b.c.8511]

Additionally, I actually liked the Spring EP and it got me into Wallows, yet I do agree the singles are better. And the new the 1975 album was overhyped and not intriguing to me.

[@xribcage]

Boom Boom Room Side B, Entertainment, and Brief Inquiry are some of my favorite albums of the year. Besides that I agree with you

[@theabacross1581]

Albums that really disappointed me: - State Champs - Living Proof - Fall Out Boy - MANIA - Beartooth - Disease - Black Veil Brides - Vale - Trophy Eyes - American Dream - The Wonder Years - Sister Cities

[@hellonurd8957]

Yeah... I can agree these bands are capable of doing better.

[@meghanwood3354]

Pray for the Wicked really disappointed me. I mean I like a few songs, but overall I almost never come back to it. I hope the next album is different.

[@serenaramirez9563]

Brendon said it's gonna be metal sooo it's definitely gonna be different 😂

[@lifebloodcore2106]

I really liked Mania and Starcruiser but I respect your opinions

[@justsomebloke460]

When you and Jon do year end lists: *smiling face emoji

[@MoniqueTx]

I feel the same way about Sister Cities

[@jacobh6193]

I’d say Pray for the Wick was disappointing, but after Brendan’s last 2 albums I had no expectations. I hope FOB’s next album is either very different, or sounds more like Folie a Deux. Just no EDM, no trap. You have 4 members that play instruments very dang good. Just use them,

[@Rekko82]

It is funny but this year I haven't got any disappointments on albums. Even Mariah Carey's Caution wasn't one - at least it is better than her previous album and has many good songs. I have had disappointments during previous years but not this time. Maybe because I bought less than 20 albums this time and I didn't get Lily Allen's new album or any other which would have let me down.

[@jsreviews4177]

Hot take: Living Proof is the best state champs album. I thought ATWAB was the letdown

[@hyu4293]

Misery by the Amity Affliction oh godddddd

[@wimpman94]

[@josephtafur]

And FOB

[@elodie7325]

[@amandalee2779]

double dare was better than entertainment but i still do think that entertainment is a solid album from waterparks imo but i do get why you think it's cheesy

[@iliketrains3495]

I wouldn't call MANIA disappointing, it's as good as an album can be after that trainwreck of a song 'Young And Menace' came out tbh

[@PopCrusher]

I Like Trains -_-

[@deanlangley4003]

I think Gravity by Bullet For My Valentine wasn't bad just disappointing

[@atomicpunk2360]

As far as an album I was excited for, then extremely let down? Starcruiser by Vinyl Theatre. Origami was fan-fucking-tastic, then they followed it up with something that honestly sucked. 4/10 at best. Also, I had high hopes for Anthem of the Peaceful Army by Greta Van Fleet since I loved their lead off single. Too bad the rest of the album felt like a chore to listen to.

[@RanterInShades]

I liked Waterparks, Wonder Years and State Champs new albums.

[@ThebubbleySquirtle]

I think the reason PFTW let me down was I was just getting really really into panic! (Had been a causal fan for like a year or so) a few months before say amen came out and because say amen was first, which is easily in my top 20-25 Panic! Songs so I had super high expectations for it. Still a good album of course.

[@ArnoMacksu-_-]

Opinion????? Not on my watch bla bla bla

[@ciara2728]

ok i agree with all of these but the 1975 also mania was fucking horrific

[@AudioAllegro]

I don’t get it. You were disappointed by some of these albums because they were more of the same from their previous album. Then you knock the 1975 because it wasn’t more like their previous album. But, everyone has their own opinion on what they like the best and I respect yours. Funny thing four of these albums made my favorites list this year. Panic, FOB, The Wonder Years and The 1975. I’m in the process of revealing my top 20 right now at AudioAllegro.com there are a couple albums that I picked up on from watching you and ARTV. Check it out if you have a minute.

[@XPursuitOfEpicnessX]

I do like A Brief Inquiry but ILIWYS Is so much better

[@hollysmyth2704]

I agree with pretty much all the albums on this list, the other ones I just haven't listened to and therefor do not have an opinion on. I agree with Pray For The Wicked, I think I hated on it a little too much when it first came out, I became a fan shortly after DOAB, so I guess I wanted the first new album i got from them to be really exciting and it wasn't. It wasn't bad, just kinda bland even though there are songs I like, (personally I think the singles were mostly superior). I think Brendon mentioned in an interview he wanted to experiment with more genres like metal, although I'm not a huge metalhead, I would gladly take a metal album over another PFTW. Entertainment I liked, but I think it's probably because I listened to it before listening to Double Dare, so I just got to appreciate it without really having anything to compare it too.

[@patricklauer4452]

Mania, The Now Now And Simulation Theory were pretty disappointing for me personally (IMO!)

[@purpleheadedhedgehog3821]

My let downs of the year: Youngblood - 5sos Mania - Fall out boy Bloom - Troye Sivan

[@gabrielleporter553]

[@powenpayne]

I think PFTW flopped because it was willing to do something different in the pop industry rather than altogether. AFYCSO, Pretty. Odd, ,Vices, and TWLTRD all had intriguing sounds that you were able to easily recognize and be like, “Oh yeah, that’s the shit!” DOAB was Brendon’s bridge into getting into a more mainstream style but it still had some flair to it. PFTW was overwhelming to someone who strictly listened to pop and only listen to High Hopes (which is a bop btw). It felt underwhelming to a Panic fan that expected something that was trying to set a new standard for all music rather than impress a bunch of basic bitches (no offense to anyone who likes pop, I tend to just enjoy heavier music). There are a few gems from PFTW like King of the Clouds, Say Amen (Saturday Night), High Hopes, and The Overpass, but the only one I come back to is King of the Clouds.
