I really dig Army Reserve.

Other than Evacuation and God's Dice, i actually quite agree with stips bottom list.

A lot of you seem to be forgetting backspacer songs, for some reason

That's some A-grade Binauralling there

Only songs recorded for studio albums 2000-2009 considered. If we were including covers, Love Reign would definitely make the best list. If Lightning Bolt was included, My Father's Son would be the only contender.

7. Get Right
8. Wasted Reprise/Life Wasted

I'm not surprised how few Backspacer tracks made my worst list - so many of those songs were such middle-of-the-road PJ.

probably the easiest top 10 I ever had to make

random order

Sleight of Hand
Nothing As It Seems
Insignificance
Grievance
Of The Girl
Rival
Man of the Hour
Cold Confession
Parting Ways
Light Years

More or less in order...

Insignificance
Rival
Sleight of Hand
Grievance
All or None
Nothing As It Seems
Man of the Hour
Can't Keep
Of The Girl
Parachutes
