I'm ranking my picks within each album, and also forcing myself to pick 5 (which means that, for a couple of albums, I will have to list a few songs I'm not crazy about)

If I were a mod ... not just a sports mod but overall board mod ... even from the day I started 15 years ago, this might be the first thread that I would actually just delete. Not lock, delete. Fuck this thread.

The sad part is a handful of people actually replied with their own respective lists.

Qick observations:

• It was remarkably hard to pick 5 off Lightning Bolt
  The high end Binaural songs are SO good!
  Self Titled was also difficult...outside of Lightning Bolt its got the least amount of pure standouts for me, but unlike LB very little in the way of weak songs.
  I have a tough time putting Who Ever Said in my top 5 for Gigaton despite loving it.

[Ms Harmless]

so many great albubs!

See, I would have stickied the OG version of this. Seems like it comes up enough and people enjoy it enough ( ) to warrant permanent front page status.

[Jorge]

I don't think there was ever a "best 5 songs on each albub" thread before
