The Best Mean Tweets of 2025

12/29/2025
Musicians recount the strange and unexpected stories behind the making of your favorite albums. Happy (almost) New Year! In order to take a little break for the holidays we've painstakingly compiled our funniest mean tweets from the entire year, then we got together at our annual holiday party and listened to them together as a team. We hope you enjoy it (we certainly did, as you will hear) and we'll be backing to reviewing a 1001 Album list pick next week to kick off 2026 Join us on Patreon to continue the conversation and access 50+ bonus shows! https://www.patreon.com/1001AlbumComplaints Join our Mailing List here: https://linktr.ee/1001albumcomplaints Email us your complaints (or questions / comments) at 1001AlbumComplaints@gmail.com Intro music: When the Walls Fell by The Beverly Crushers Outro music: After the Afterlife by MEGA Follow our Spotify Playlist of music produced directly by us.
