This is listed as an upcoming release on HDTracks.
Though the Ten, Vs and Vitalogy releases are the exact same mastering as the reissues, only in higher resolution (ie. they're no more dynamic than the CD releases), I'll still be moderately interested to see if this sounds better than the regular CD.

Has LB been out long enough to rank the albums again?

Guys, there's nothing on here as good as Severed Hand, Comatose, Parachutes, Unemployable and Army Reserve - let alone Can't Keep, Cropduster, All or None, I Am Mine, etc.

Nonsense. The worst song on LB is better than every song you mentioned apart from cant keep.
I got to look properly at the vinyl LB today. That's a beautiful package. The stickers are a bit odd but still.

And even with that the second half is better than anything on ST.
Bland bad sing trying to recapture former glory vs at the very least some (sort of mangled) attempts in a new direction/territory and ideas.
Do it on a song by song basis. LB wins.

I don't agree with him, necessarily, but that's ludicrous.

Was just wondering what ethereal rule I was breaking cos I have a different opinion.
Who's Horace Mann?
Great quote. Good to keep for future PJ bitching conversations.

At this point i'd put it as "best since Yield" in my own ranking.

How is it something as basic and simple as Small town which was once a treasure, now be a dreaded dirge???
This has been keeping me up at night.
LB is best since yield.
