    Rival is an awesome song... The riff is so... chunky? I've been listening to Binaural a lot recently, it's definitely an underrated gem.

    yeh i dont hate any of their albums. I like some more then others, but i dont know how anyone can come on here and just bag the shit outta some of these albums/songs/ and what pisses me off more then anything is people bagging matt Cameron. He is an awesome drummer ed calls him "the best drummer if not of our time, but of all time"

    As far as im concerned how can these people call themselves fans. SCREW THE HATERS but having said that everyone can have their own opinion, it is just a shit opinion.

    I'll go one further and say that Arc is the best song on Riot Act.

    Not a fan of Binaural as an album but it has some of my favourite songs.

    I agree... I definitely would rather hear more songs off these albums live than all of Ten, and Elderly Woman, and Betterman, and so on.....

    Yep, the last tour really suffered for lack of songs from these albums.

    Both are totally underrated, incredible albums.

    LOL at the Speedy reference. While I do tend to put those two on the bottom of my list when forced to make a list, it's not because I don't love them. They both have several gems and I'd much rather listen to those than albums than alot of others that I can think of. :)

    Binaural is outstanding, but I still can't get too much into Riot Act.

    I TOTYALLY AGREE!

    i love everything off binaural and almost all of the stuff of riotact.

    the only songs i dont care for are Cropduster and Get Right, but other than that their my number 3 and 4 albums for me. :)


    SCREW THE HATERS! :)

    I love Binaural! Seriously, Binaural and No Code are two albums I can put in while in any mood. I do enjoy some Riot Act, however I rarely just put it on and have a listen.

    I'm with you all on this one....Binaural and Riot Act are fantastic albums. One of the reasons show i saw in Paris last year was oso great was because quite a few Riot Act songs were played; Save You, Love Boat Captain, Thumbing My Way, You Are, Half Full...it was great!

    Binaural is easily my favourite album. On nights like tonight, when it goes dark early and i'm alone in the house and its cold outside, there's nothing better than giving Binaural spin. The album is absolutely drenched in mood and atmosphere, moreso than any other album.

    I love both Riot Act and Binaural.

    Different reasons for both. These and No Code are probably my top 3.



    For today anyway....:D
