Good Charlotte Trashes Album and Starts All Over

Posted on January 26, 2010 - 6:35pm by loretta Good Charlotte has decided to throw out their new album and start all over from scratch. Benji Madden made the decision to try again and his band couldn't agree more. On Good Charlotte's website Benji explained,

When we got back from the last trip to Australia, we had pretty much finished recording the record. I went into the studio to hear some roughs and it just wasn't right. I couldn't figure it out. I was so lost. I love the songs, I love the lyrics, so what was the problem. I was just so bewildered. Devastated actually. This had never happened. I felt crazy. Like this. I told our manager to just PAUSE everything and I need time to think. I called all the boys immediately and called an emergency meeting. Everyone sat down. And I just said 'Guys, we gotta start over.' And his bandmates agreed. I was expecting everyone to freak on me and say 'What?' But Billy (Martin) was the first to speak, and right away he said 'I knew you were gonna say that. My gut is telling me the same thing. Let's do it.' Everyone agreed.

How sad. They felt their hard work was so bad they had to redo it. Do you think the album could've actually sounded so bad it needed to be thrown away?
