Mid tier or below.

There’s no turning back. The best this thing can be at this point is mediocre.

Bad is more interesting than mediocre - vote MYM

Hey dickhead. It was a joke. I was joking.

The Pearl Jam forum sucks and you're all dorks.

There's not a single song on LB that I ever want to hear again. I doubt if I've heard any song from LB more than 5 times.

Well, you're going to have to hear one LB song again once this Ultimate Album is complete. It's part of the rules that we're all legally bound to listen to it.

I’ll fight for MFS until the day I die
Co-sign, MFS is a good song.

That aside, the cupboard is pretty bare.

Swallowed Whole is pretty lightweight but it's not outrageously bad like many of the other tunes.

It really is their worst record by a long shot.

Yup.
Infallible is the best song on it.

I'm enjoying all the doom-and-glooming, but it's good to keep some perspective. I see 3 excellent songs on the tracklist so far, and one not-so-great song that doesn't rank among their all-time worst. "Animal" looks like it's gonna win this round, and that's another good one. Keep the faith!

I just listened to MFS and it wasn't bad.

The only reason anyone doesn't like MFS is the word "insemination"
