I brought the CD yesterday for the second time.
The first four really stand out.
Take The Lomg Way/Never Deatination are very underestimated.
Buckle Up still does nothing for me sorry

I'm surprised how much Never Destination has grown on me. I thought it was a real stinker when Gigaton first came out. Overall, it's a solid album, but it's missing a big anthem. Invincible would have scratched that itch for me.
While they are supremely weaker albums than Gigaton, the strongest tracks on Backspacer and LB are better than the strongest on Gigaton IMO.

i dont think there is anything remotely better on those two that, lets say, Dance Of Clairvoyants or Quick Escape.

I can agree that Never Destination is great

There's not one song on BS or LB better than anything on Gigaton.

I like The Fixer and would put it among he better late-era PJ songs. But SBWM is better.

There are a few songs from those two albums that I could cite if I disagreed strongly, but...I don't.

given to fly or do the evolution. they are both 10/10
i'm sure there's argument's to be made for songs from binaural and riot act, even the self-titled album. i dont think anything from LB or backspacer are as good as DOTC. i think part of my love for it is when they released it. at this point in their career they are still doing things that shock me and blow me away.
