I like the song and I appreciate that it can take on an extra poignancy considering the current climate but "THIS IS the WRONG TIME to DISS A SONG YOU DON'T LIKE" is a bad bad take

Re: RANK THE ALBUMS
WMA has a great bass line, and sort of takes a different vibe and focus to add some range to an album that could sound very same-y without it. Go, Animal, Glorified G, Dissident, Rearviewmirror... a lot of big rock songs that need something other than a ballad to balance it out. WMA more than fits the bill, much in the way Oceans served to rectify a similar scenario in Ten. It even in a sense serves as a palate cleanser so the songs don’t run together. It’s what the album needs. Daughter and Small Town are slower songs but aren’t as effective at doing this as WMA.

You've probably expounded on it before, but tell us what it is about Riot Act that ranks fourth for you.Jorge wrote:Yield

I think that's the first time I've ranked Yield over No Code but it's how I'm feeling right now

Re: RANK THE ALBUMS
Mine is quite similar to that but with RA much further down the list. I need to give that album another listen soon - I keep thinking I am missing a new aha moment with that one since many who put it near their top lump it with Vitalogy, Binaural, and No Code which are my top 3.
