    this doesn't mean anything because all it means is the percentage who think it is their favorite album, but if just as many people think it is awful to me it ranks it lower than an album that most everyone has in their top couple, anyway I voted Vs, but No Code and Yield are close behind

    Yea. This poll isn't nearly as in depth as your rankings of the albums+Lost Dogs.

    I'm just wanting to know people's favorite studio album. Not wanting to ruffle any feathers, nothing 'Official' this is just for fun.

    Big Bank can you repost that guy in the back of the police car that spits out the stick because he thought it was a cig.

    Well I thought I would come to this thread and click "Vs." and move on. Well after some thought, I picked Yield. I went through the "bring one album to a deserted island" exercise and came up with Yield. I've listened to Daughter, Blood, Rearviewmirror, and Elderly Woman enough times I guess. I have never tired of listening to Brain of J, Faithfull, No Way, In Hiding, Push Me Pull Me, All those Yesterdays, and Given to Fly (studio).

    I don't think Yield is their best album, but right now that is the album I'd grab if I could only pick one.

    We know that Jeff Ament hasn't voted because his favorite album is Binaural (zero % right now).

    I picked Riot Act, but just because i'm in an RA kind of mood right now. I was just as likely to have picked Binaural. By far their most underrated album. I just don't get why more people don't love it like I do! :(

    Voted Vitalogy... almost clicked Binaural. I mostly listen to those middle 6 records. Love the first two and love the last two, but the middle 6 are my favourites.

    I'm just as surprised that Ten is winning at the moment. Nostalgia goes a long way I guess.
