Your favourite albums that everyone hates

Just noticed that a lot of my favourite albums by my favourite artists are hated by critics, fans and even by the band itself. Why is this happening??

For example:

Radiohead: Hail to the Thief (hate is a strong word but critics and fans alike feel it's their weakest album). Thom Yorke broke my heart saying he dislikes the song Backdrifts.

Linkin Park: Minutes to Midnight (critics hated it like most of their albums) but god forbid I love an album that still has screaming, heavy songs AND a song in the transformers movie that slaps.

Deftones: Self Titled. Critics and the band themselves hate it. Another heavy album on rotation for me. Pitchfork (don't even get me started on them) gave it a 4.7. I wonder what the .7 is for? Of course I recognise White Pony is their best earlier work.

Has anyone had this problem? Why does everyone have to break my heart?? Sorry I'm being dramatic and ranting lol
