Let's make the Ultimate PJ Album: TRACK 1

Post by Jorge »

Now that Dark Matter is out, I thought this would be a fun exercise to revisit.

The twist here is that once an album wins, that album is off the table for the rest of the tracks. So vote strategically!

We're gonna do this for tracks 1 - 12, then have a final round for all post-13 tracks together.

Once.

I think (?) I'm fine with ruling out anything else off Ten but will probably regret that choice down the line.

"Animal" is not a track 1. Try again

Yeah, no shit. Once and Life Wasted were already mentioned for track 1 so we can safely move to track 2.

Track two will be impossible. Animal vs Hail Hail?

If we all vote Go for track 1, it will make it a lot easier.

oh not again... why are we looking for album track numbers instead of composition style? like:

choose one from:

punk rock attempts: spin the black circle, lukin, blood, mind your manners, comatose, supersonic, running, brain of j, superblood wolfmoon
palm mute Ed songs: love boat captain, wishlist, light years, lightning bolt, unthought known, who ever says
rock anthems: alive, even flow, corduroy, given to fly
jeff is the king: jeremy, leash, my fathers son, indifference
acoustic mellow songs: black, release, elderly woman, nothingman, off he goes, yellow moon
should be an Ed solo track: i'm open, future days, come then goes, just breathe, the end, soon forget,
experimentation songs: you are, dance of clayrvoiants, who you are, pendulum

:P

we would have a more compreehensive "ultimate" PJ album than comparing you know "Once" and "Can't Keep"
