Simple vanilla question, but I am curious because we had this discussion the other night over a joint:

1. If you could only take one album with you to listen to forever, which would it be and why do you love it so?

2. Which is your least favorite and why?


okay, I'll answer mine:

1. Binaural: IMO, it's the most complete album of PJ's career. Political, agressive and amazing. The slower songs provide numerous chill bumps. While Grievance, God's Dice and Insignif. make me throw up more shakkas than ever!

2. least favorite (and that doesn't mean I hate it) is "Avacado". I'm not sure why, but the songs don't hit the nerves like the past albums.

I will rate them from best to least best:

1. Binaural
2. Yield
3. No Code
4. Vitalogy
5. Ten
6. Lost Dogs
7. Riot Act
8. Vs.
9. Avacado

All of phenominal, but I just love to read other's opinions.

Thanks, Dewey

Oops. sorry if it's somewhere else. I'm at work :comp: and am typing covertly.

btw, This board is AWESOME!

I attended my 14th PJ at the WPB show and it was one of my favs that I have attended. Hope everyone else has enjoyed this tour.

this kind of list is impossible for me. yield is my favorite album as a whole, but there are other albums that i simply couldnt do without hearing. sorry if this doesnt make sense, but this has taken me a long time to type. i just got home from a killer neighborhood barbecue that featured several kegs.

Binaural (Some fantastic songs on this album, some of my favourites in fact, but as an album it's definitely the one I'd pick last to put on. I can live without ever hearing Gods Dice, Evacuation, Light Years and Rival again. A retracked version of this album with the lost dogs would be WAY higher up.)
