Tentatively, I'll definitely change my mind:

1. Porcupine/Crocodiles
2. Siberia
3. Ocean Rain
4. Evergreen
5. Meteorites
6. Heaven Up Here (good songs, don't care much for the production)
7. Echo & the Bunnymen
8. What Are You Going to Do With Your Life?
9. Flowers
10. The Fountain
11. Reverberation (not for lack of Mac or being of Burke, it's just the kind of album I would've probably liked if I were younger, it just doesn't suit me now. I liked one of the b-sides more than the stuff on the album, so maybe if the other songs were in that vein...)

Interesting list. Siberia up in second place above Ocean Rain and Heaven up Here. I've always thought Siberia was underestimated (apart from the initial euphoria following its release) and that it is a very good album. Heaven up Here down in sixth place...

I'd have:

1. Heaven up Here
2. Crocodiles
3. Porcupine
4. Ocean Rain
5. Meteorites
6. Siberia
7. Echo and the Bunnymen
8. Flowers
9. What are you going to do....
10. Evergreen
11. The Fountain

I like it when post reformation albums get in the top 4, as in a couple of the above posts. Personally I don't agree, but it's good to see that for some people they eclipse the earlier, 'classic' body of work.

Siberia at number two eh? Interesting. All Because of You Days is definitely one of my all time favorite Bunnymen songs. Really like Of a Life as well.

1. Porcupine
2. Ocean Rain
3. Crocodiles
4. HUH
5. Grey Album


6. Siberia/Avalanche
7. What are you
8. Evergreen
9. The Fountain

I don't consider Meteorites to be a Bunnymen album and Mac has put out better solo albums.

Meteorites is way more Bunnymen than WAYGTDWYL yet you've listed that.
