The Buttplugs >> Hitler's Nipples




I really had no idea that Hitler was so well endowed underneath that uniform.

Doron Braunshtein >> The Obsessive Poet



This 4 CD album mixes spoken-word with songs and instrumentals.  I guess this is poetry of some kind?  I'm not really sure.

Arnold Schwarzenegger >> Arnold Schwarzenegger's Total Body Workout



This album features a collection of classic hits by the likes of Gladys Knight & The Pips, Journey, and Tommy Tutone.  It also features everyone's favourite muscular Austrian body-builder turned actor turned politician.  Arnie pumps us up and encourages us to work out.

Vuvuzela Chromatic Orchestra >> Meet the World



Inspired by a recent post on Reddit, I went looking for an album of Vuvuzela hits. Of course, there were hundreds. This album is a collection of traditional songs played through one of these plastic trumpets of doom. No, wait, worse, it's synthesized.

Jason Crumer >> Ottoman Black



This artist is tagged: noise, Avant-Garde, harsh noise, experimental.  I can't see how anyone can enjoy this.  Really.  If you like this, can you leave a comment, so that we can learn your secrets?

Cyberwhores >> Greatest Hits



This British group channels their inner teenager when producing this album, with liberal use of swearing, controversial subjects, and titles such as "Cuntries R Shit" and "Dictate My Pussy". Surprised they didn't call it "Greatest Shits".

Otto Von Schirach >> PUKOLOGY



If you're feeling at all queasy, don't listen to this album. In fact, even if you're feeling fine right now, you might not continue to be so once you begin listening to this.

Tiny Tim >> God Bless Tiny Tim



Music of the 60's can be seriously weird, and this album is continuing proof of that.  With his high-pitched falsetto voice and ukulele, Tiny Tim is an acquired taste.

Put this album on, and see how many of the people around you claim to recognise the music, but aren't quite sure from where.

It's actually quite good.

H.G.Wells Playhouse >> The Time Machine

There are a growing number of audiobooks on Spotify. Some good, some bad. However, how many of them are read by Transformer Decepticon robot, Soundwave? Answer: THIS ONE.

Windarna >> Låt Blodet Flöda

I'm sure there are really complex plot lines and subtexts behind this song. It probably narrates the lyricist's childhood and transition into adulthood, as well as his struggles to learn his place in the world around him.

Thanks to Edalol on Reddit for this one.

Cher Lloyd >> Swagger Jagger

OK so it's not really Cher Lloyd, because her version of this song isn't on Spotify yet. But this is a cover version, in her style, which is just as bad (if not worse). Oh m'darlin, oh m'darlin, oh m'darlin, Clementine..

What's worse than listening to kids singing? The answer to that is listening to kids rapping. I hope their parents are proud.

Florence Foster Jenkins >> The Unbelievable Glory of the Human Voice

Credited as being "The World's Worst Opera Singer", Florence is a shining example of how, even in the early 20th Century, one can become famous for being really bad at something.

The Smokin' Hot Babe Lovers >> Songs About Smoking Hot Babes, Vol. 1

There is in fact a 2nd volume of 'songs' about 'smokin' hot babes'. Sadly it ends when they get to L, presumably because the Smokin' Hot Babe Lovers couldn't remember the rest of the alphabet.

Kurt Mambo >> The Return Of Alleinunterhalter

I have a special place in my heart for covers of songs in unusual styles, so it pains me to post this. Spotify says his name is Kurt Mambo, but the album cover says it's Mambo Kurt. Either way, it's full of off-key crooning over casio keyboards.

Anal Cunt >> 40 More Reasons To Hate Us

Everything about this band is designed to offend. Their name, album cover, titles, and of course the content of the tracks. At least, I think that's the case, but I can't actually make out any of the words to be able to tell.

Captain Dan & The Scurvy Crew >> Authentic Pirate Hip Hop


"The only rap crew with buccaneer technique!" says Last.fm.  I could believe that.  Unless there's some underground scene of pirate hip-hop that I'm unaware of, but that's unlikely.  Ahoy, me homies.

Various Artists >> Hip-Hop Tribute to Lynyrd Skynyrd's Greatest Hits


Who is this for?  It won't appeal to Lynyrd Skynyrd fans, and it won't appeal to hip-hop fans either.  Did they make the album specifically for this blog?  We'll never know.
