Songs that are way better then the albums they are on

Snuff - Nick Northern off the album Demmamussabebonk ( that song has groove, melody, and killer hooks, the rest of the album is pretty much your mosh variety speed punk )



Korn - Good God off of Life is Peachy (that song could have easily been on there S/t debut)

Wow! I actually have that Snuff album! I also have another one by them with some longass title about wholesale meat prices straight from the lockup. Talk about a band that creates unwieldy album titles...

What do you think of the album? There album titles are hilarious

I'm thinking of "White Knucklin' the Rosary" by Tourniquet for Crawl to China. I've learned to appreciate and actually really like this album now, but I think this song is a cut above the rest.

Babylon AD - Bang Go the Bells. Horrible album, great song.

Echo.

I would add, Spread Eagle's "Switchblade Serenade" to the list. It's the only reason I own the album.

Listening to Fates Warning's "Awaken The Guardian" album, and the song "Guardian" in particular it hit me, this song is unbelievably so much better than the rest of the album. Quite an achievement, considering how good this album is. But nontheless, "Guardian" is in a league of it's own.

Does anyone have other examples like this?

That's my favorite FW album and favorite FW song right there!!!

I do feel the same regarding Scorpions. Animal Magnetism is a good album, but The Zoo really stands out to me. The same goes for Blackout, which is far superior to AM, but China White has always stood out to me.

There are two songs on Wasp's The Last Command that I really like. Those being "Wildchild" and "The Widowmaker". The rest of the album was okay, but nothing special.

"Baluchitherium" off of Balance by Van Halen.

When I think of songs that are better then the albums they are on, I think of albums I dont like.

Well here goes fellows.

Limp Bizkit - Almost Over (off of Results May Vary)
Limp Bizkit - Break Stuff (Significant Other)
Limp Bizkit - Stuck ( # Dollar Bill Y'All)

All these songs suck donkey balls. The only good think LB ever did was the the instrument "Everything" from 3DBY.

Floodgate - Black With Sin, from Penalty.

Although you might not like Bizkit they do have material I like. Sounds like you are basing your opinion on there name more then there songs.

Well at least we're consistent.

I disagree with the Babylon selection and I disagree with Spread Eagle too.

Now if you want a crappy Spread Eagle album check out Open To The Public. That one's a turd.

B.O.C.-Burnin' For You. I don't like the rest of the album but that song kicks arse.

Not even Joan Crawford or Psychic Wars?

I think the whole album is great and Burnin' for You is just an overplayed radio hit.

gotta agree with ult, awesome album

I third ULT's opinion on the Blue Oyster Cult classic " Fire of an Unknown Origin" is a classic, as far as Limp Bizkit at best they are ok, but personally I feel they are border line suck. Their songs show as much imagination and creativity as the rain man after a three day crack binge.

"Joan Crawford has risen... from the graaaaaaaave!"

"Christiiiiiinaaaaaa!!!! Mother's hoooooomee."

But saying every song from them sucks monkey balls is more a bash of who they are and really not caring about anything else. You don't have to be a fan but I wouldn't say I hate a band if I like some of there songs. The guys from Limp are all great musicians, I think they seem to get bashed on because of Fred Dursts style. Their are plenty of songs where he actually sings and doesn't sound bad. As far as the 3 i mentioned those albums i didnt care for too much, but those songs really stuck out to me on those albums.

Some ,if they have heard it may disagree, but the song "Beast Of Damnation" from Wardog's Scorched Earth is what the whole album should have sounded like,great song IMO.

No. Read what I wrote again. I have the first Bizkit album. I have met Fred Durst and he has been a really nice guy. He used to drop by a bar me and my buddy would go to sometimes and even gave us copies of the last album or e.p. they did without us even asking for it. I have nothing against the band and am not basing anything because of their name. In fact, I think if their bass player and drummer are great musicians . What I was saying is that the 3 songs you listed suck according to my taste.

Alright, but you pretty much said everything from them sucks and the only good thing they ever did was an instrumental.

Bingo!

On the subject of Bizkit, I must be the only guy in the world that likes 'Results May Vary' more than anything else they've done. 'Unquestionable Truth Part I' is probably my second favourite, and Chocolate Starfish my least favourite, so I have high hopes for the next album.

Anyway, on topic, 'This City Has No Heart' by Faster Pu$$ycat is a good song on an otherwise boring album.

The Kings - Switchin' To Glide/This Beat Goes On

Haven't heard of this song for years. Probably 'cause we're old.

Radar Love-Rest of album was blah.

Lunatic Fringe-Only good song Red Rider ever did.

Iron Maiden - "The Clansman" is an awesome track. And even though I find the album decent enough, I think this song shits all over it!
