I have a sick compulsion to buy movie soundtracks - thankfully now with iTunes I normally manage to just buy whatever particular track from the soundtrack has caught my compulsive focus, but it's led to me boasting such highlights as the soundtracks to:
Mo' Money
Charlie's Angels

I have no excuse for having a Creed album...

I also own a couple of CD compliations of wrestling entrance themes - its amazing how cool most of them are not, sans a roid-fuelled monster charging out of massive pyrotechnics.

None of these are that bad. I have Meltdown too, it's pretty dire but not wildly embarrassing. Most of my direst music was when i barely bought any CDs, the album i now hate most out of all those i own is Maroon 5's Jane album.

Don't own Meltdown, admittedly, but 1977 is a corker IMHO. Can't imagine Ash ever releasing anything that wanky.

That's why it's not that embarrassing, though. People look at it and go, "oh yeah, Ash, they're not a bad band" and you respond with a ":unsure:.. yeah..." and move on quickly. But when you actually listen to it, it's seriously dire. Every song (particularly the lyrics) makes palms hit faces and toes curl violently.

First CD I ever owned was Ricky Martin's self-titled CD. Great piece of music.
When you went to the counter to buy it, did the sales assistant ask you "do you really want it, do you really want it, do you really want it..."?

Has to be:

Ali Azmat - Social Circus
Live - Birds of Prey

The former being the epic example of an album with one good song and a dozen ****ty ones. I could add Offspring on here but I don't think I ever made it through the whole thing.

Strangely, I actually don't own any really bad CDs, because the only time in my life I ever actually purchased CDs was between the ages of 18-20 when I accumulated a modest but excellent catalogue of classic rap CDs.

Yet ironically, I STILL enjoy the exact sort of pop music that so many of you liked at 10 and were embarrassed by at 11.

Pretty sure I own a B*Witched album, not sure how I ended up with that one. Of the albums that i actually bought because I may have liked a song or two would probably be Hoobastank or Creed.
