    They are both very good. I think Jar of Flies was a little better.

    Jar of Flies. love Rotten Apple, Nutshell, I Stay Away, No Excuses, Whale & Wasp, and Don't Follow. never liked Swing on This.
    Sap is good, especially Brother and Right Turn... Got Me Wrong got on my nerves after a while and Am I Inside was just okay. bonus song was lame-o.

    I've done the same as the original poster and combined the two. It's an awesome shuffle cd.

    The 2 best AIC albums, IMHO. I think I'm gonna do that as well - these 2 EPs are awesome, probably even better when they are combined.

    I love me some Sap. Usually I'd say it's my favorite AIC disc unless I'm in a dark mood, then I've gotta go with Dirt. Jar of Flies is great too though. Good question.

    I like JoF better, it has more mood changes in it than SAP, but I really like them both. I don't like "Swing on This" (just like somebody else already mentioned). I loved the duet with Chris Cornell on SAP and 'Got Me Wrong', but I don't think it can stand up overall against JoF.

    but they are so great considering their 3 full length albums are so heavy metal/grunge, you have these 2 eps that are such a change of pace. it makes for a great concert setlist and it keeps the heavy separated from the slower moody songs.

    jar of flies

    The production on this album is perfect. Rotten Apple and Nutshell are just hauntingly beautiful songs.

    Thanks for the topic, I gotta put on JOF now!

    If I have to choose, the I'd say 'Jar Of Flies'. But like other have said, both together is just perfect.

    Just shows what a talented band they are.

    I agree with whoever said Nutshell put Jar Of Flies over the top. I was just listening to this last night.
  • jar of flies is so awesome in so many ways. I love on the video collection with the home movies where jerry cantrel says fuck this 7 songs is good enough
  • prytocorduroyprytocorduroy Posts: 4,355
    Jar of Flies has not one bad track. Sap has a disadvantage though because it's 2 songs shorter and one was obviously a joke.

    So yeah...I choose Jar of Sap.

    I love Sap, it was also hold a special memory for me at the time I discovered it and listened to it, I believe it was the summer of 1993. But Jar Of Flies is incredible and I would rate it above Sap

    Is it just me, or does parts of 'Rotten Apple' sound like 'Times Of Trouble' and 'Footsteps' ???

    I've done what many people here have, and put them both on the same disc. Overall I think I prefer Jar Of Flies, but I really love Am I Inside from Sap.

    Both great EP's!
