How can you be rating Meteorites? It hasn't been released.

Which Glide album are you including?

I can really only quantify ten as I don't care much for Reverberation, Evergreen, WAYGTDWYL, Flowers, The Fountain and the Avalanche EP even though each of them has a 1-3 good tunes.

1. Porcupine
2. Ocean Rain
3. Crocodiles
4. Heaven Up Here
5. Songs to Learn and Sing
6. Siberia
7. Burned
8. Echo & the Bunnymen
9. Slideling
10. Curvature of the Earth

HUH at fourth? Where exactly was this hernia of yours?

I left him downstairs watching TV while making my list so I could come across as edgy.

This is great except HUH should be first, compilation albums don't count so put Evergreen there. Flowers is better than Siberia so that needs switched and WAYGTDWYL is superior to Slideling. Other than that it's perfect!

I know a lot of you rate Heaven Up Here as the best but it is by far my least favorite of the first four. Evergreen and WAYGTDWYL bore the shit out of me, and Flowers just rubs me the wrong way.

Siberia could have been a classic album. If Mac only wrote complete songs.

Heaven Up Here
Porcupine
Ocean Rain
Crocodiles
Reverberation (could do with a Remaster)
'Grey album'
Siberia
WAYGTDWYL?
Evergreen
Flowers
The Fountain

I love the Evergreen era b-sides more than the album tracks. If I could choose the album tracklist from those 97 songs it would rank much higher on my list. As mediocre as the post-reformation output is, the only really shit album is The Fountain. As of now.

Porcupine
Ocean Rain
HUH
Crocodiles
Grey album
Siberia
Zephyr EP
What are you
Evergreen

Flowers was their first album that I felt pretty letdown on the first listen, just a mediocre album in pretty much every respect. Even the cover of the album is really bad.

1. Heaven Up Here
2. Ocean Rain
3. Crocodiles
4. Porcupine
5. Space Age Freak Out
6. Poltergeist
7. Echo and the Bunnymen
8. Candleland
9. Grind
10. WAYGTDWYL

HUH is top and always has been, whilst 2,3 and 4 can be in different order depending on my mood. If the Reverberation album had included the Euphoric 12" ep tracks that would have squeezed in there somewhere as I preferred those to the album itself.
