Here are a handful of albums that hardly deserve a full-length review. Duds consist of albums that have received a rating of two stars or less.

O (2008, Team Love) Tilly and the Wall's fourth studio album. **
Ultimately dry, a very disappointing album from a band that has potential to be a decent underground band. Sure, they're respected there, no doubt. But they could be good.

Partie Traumatic (2008, Columbia) Black Kids' first studio album. **
For anyone who ever entertained the thought of a B-52's and Roger Waters collaboration... and enjoyed it.

Can't Stop Won't Stop (2008, Fearless) The Maine's first studio album. *
Remarkably uncatchy and predictable. The unhookiest hooks since Lit. What more can you say about a band who tries to make an anthem statement with "She makes me feel like shit"?

I totally agree with your duds. Your my new favorite blog!
Thanks espo369! I was really surprised at reading reviews for Black Kids, they've received very positive feedback by professional critics. But I suppose that's why they are the ones that get paid for what they do!
Thanks for reading :)
