Not all of them! "The Razor's Edge" was great. Pink Floyd less so. U2's wasn't that good. I still think "Futurology" will be a better album than some of the ones mentioned. Apart from "Bongo Fury". That's going to take some beating!

And in compiling this list I've forgotten what the actual point I was going to make by doing this. But I'll be back when I remember.
REM's was Reveal, if this helps your point any I don't know...

Queen's 12th studio album is A Kind Of Magic.... should have been called A Kind Of Shite, if I'm honest.

Thanks for that! Yeah, and REM's 12th album was "Reveal" so that's another album the new one might be better than.

Ah yeah, there's that one too. But at least they went on to make two great albums after that so, it's not all bad.

Reveal isn’t bad. Imitation of Life is one of their best singles certainly, and She Just Wants To Be is pretty good. Can’t remember much more about it though... So hopefully Futurology is better!

Yeah so let's listen to you gush about Futurology months in advance only to have your opinion change once more when you actually hear the album!

Sure.

Yeah, that's sound reasoning. I suspect the Japanese edition will be the only way to get those (presumably future b-side) bonus tracks on a physical format as well, which makes it an even better choice.
