The Least Essential Albums of 2003 Turning the hackneyed practice of year-end "best" lists on its ear, the Onion A.V. Club presents a simple list of music to which no person should bother giving a listen. Moving beyond simply ranking the worst albums in a numerical countdown, this team of three critics picks the least essential musical works in a number of categories. With the Onion's signature humor, "the recordings with the flimsiest reasons to exist" are skewered and left for lonely cut-out bins. You'll find everything from "The Least Essential Solo Album" to "The Least Essential 2Pacsploitation" in this motley mix, and you'll read one very funny jab at the redundant rock gods known as Creed. Don't miss the special feature on reality-TV albums, where you can learn about the sad demise of mop-topped Justin Guarini's recording career. Idol, we hardly knew ye. (in Music Reviews) |
