name me one universally worshipped artist who doesn't have a stinker amidst his/her musical output and i'll call your bluff!
that said, are there any tracks by your favourite artist(s) - not necessarily electronic - which are just sonically jarring in their sheer awfulness?!?
here's my pick: vic acid by squarepusher (and for that matter, the entire album under the Chaos A.D. alias - god, i hate that acid-y sound! awful!)

Vic Acid is great, one of my top 5 SP tracks! Different strokes for different folks.
The Beatles- the worst Lennon/McCartney tune is ''Wild Honey'' Pie... total crap, but thankfully it's like 40 seconds long.
I used to think ''What Goes On'' was weird drunken country bar shit and the weak link of possibly the greatest album ever made, but suddenly it's my fave on the album. Go figure.

Most of the Surfing On Sine Waves album is pure crap IMO.
Autechre have tunes I dislike,but I don't think they're crap tunes,just not my bag baby.

Squarepusher has the largest 'Shit to Good' ratio of all the electronic bands I listen to. His good ones are amazing, but his bad ones are really really bad. Shape up I say!

those who claim autechre doesn't have a single crap tune obviously haven't heard the 'cavity job' single (the b-side is equally as sonically horrendous, mind) - you have to be an 'oi, oi, ya nutters!' hardcore throwback to actually enjoy that one.
thankfully, that's their only slipup (and considering it was a low-key 1st release, all sins forgiven!), and it has to be said ae has some superb quality control. even the tracks which aren't superb are still good, methinks! the only one since 'cavity job' which just doesn't cut if for me is '19 headaches' from the 2nd peel sessions CD, the name of which was quite aptly bestowed upon it by john peel himself.

i love 'treefingers' (maybe not as an individual tune, but it does fit in quite nicely on Kid A), though 'hunting bears' from Amnesiac is one shite track, i tell ya! and worse of all, there were a good few b-sides from that album which would've made it so much better if, say, they came to replace the new version of 'morning bell' (which really wasn't necessary). generally speaking, Amnesiac is definitely the weakest thing they've done since Pablo Honey, though there are some really stellar tunes on both albums - it's just that they don't hold up as a whole quite like their other work.

I consider myself to be quite a big radiohead fan, and I have to agree with you.
There are some real good tunes on amnesiac, but as an album, it isn't good. There's too much not good songs on there as you mentioned. It's a pitty actually as I tend to listen to albums as a whole and therefor hardly listen to pyramid song and knives out, which I believe to be among the best they've ever recorded.

Radiohead, well their Pablo Honey album has some mediocre stuff on it, but it's still a nice album overall... nothing fantastic...
