10 Most Disappointing Rock & Metal Albums Of 2020

10. Twin Atlantic - Power

As the fun-loving, popular and easily approachable faces of Scottish pop rock, expectations were high for Twin Atlantic’s fifth studio album. In hindsight, this may have worked to their disadvantage, although the quality of the record certainly didn’t do them many favours either.

‘Power’ saw the band abandon their core rock focus and go for a more ambient, calm approach. In theory this could have worked, but when Twin Atlantic put it into practice it backfired massively. Their central fanbase was unhappy with the switch and a lot of people saw it as the band selling out.

The most bizarre part about this album is that Twin Atlantic actually quit their record so they could make it. Perhaps they should have trusted the better judgement of their producer and manager and not made this honestly dull album after all.
