Self-evidently. I don't understand how a case can really be made for any other album.

I wouldn't say your assertion is THAT crazy.

But seriously, every single song on Ten and Vs. is better than the weakest nine songs on this album, and there are songs on No Code, Yield, Binaural, and Riot Act that are just as good as (or better than) the best songs on this album. I love Vitalogy, but in no way, shape, or form is it significantly better than any other PJ except the PRAMG.

you just committed yourself to saying that every song on Ten and Vs is better than, say, Corduroy. I love Ten more than just about anyone (it's the only album I'd argue can challenge vitalogy), but that's clearly nuts.

I think "Corduroy" is a massively overrated song. Solid, but I definitely don't consider it top-shelf PJ. I stand by my assertion.

i like that Stip has finally found someone as broken and absurd as he is. Their conversations are like abstract art.

I disagree with his assertion, but I don't think it's all that nuts. There are only a few songs on Ten and VS that are lesser than Corduroy. Once, Why Go, Glorified G, Dissident, Blood, Rats (maybe), Leash. That's probably it.
