I wanted to give their new album enough time for the newness to wear off before I asked everyone to rank the albums again. So, just rank the eight albums and I'll tally the results in a few days. Thanks guys! Oh yeah, if you are one of those obnoxious types that will, for example, list Yield in all eight positions, please don't bother.

For me:
1. Vitalogy
2. Vs
3. No Code
4. Riot Act
5. Yield
6. Avocado
7. Ten*
8. Binaural

*I love ten, and it undoubtedly has some of their best songs, but I can't stand the production values. It's the only album that sounds dated. I really wish they would give the entire album the treatment they did for Alive, Once, and Black on the Greatest Hits.

    ..........Was very difficult...And is always ever changing
    Conversations getting dull
    There's a constant ringing in my ears
    Sense of humor's void and numb
    And I'm bored to tears.......

    3. Ten
    4. Vitalogy
    5. Yield

    Riot Act is always at the bottom, the rest are pretty inter-changeable

    The last time i did this avacado was #2 and No Code as low as 5. Been listening to No Code a fair bit and forgot what a masterpiece it is really is. Has grown on me the most. Yield is great but there is an awful amount of hype about it. Agree with production of Ten , but it s greatness hard to ignore. Vitalogy always been my fave though and it gets my nod as thier best. Binaural slips ahead of riot act because of how it sounds with headphones! I think some of the things on Lost Dogs could have been compiled to make a stronger album than Riot Act. Maybe Riot Act and Binaural which have similar themes could be fused together to make a great album.

    1) Vitalogy
    2) No Code
    3) Avacado
    4) Yield
    5) Vs
    6) Ten
    7) Binaural
    8) Riot Act

    i was actually thinking about this on my own the other day:

    1. No Code
    2. Ten
    3. Yield
    4. VS
    5. Vitology
    6. Pearl Jam
    7. Binaural
    8. Riot Act

    Pearl Jam and Vitology are close i could maybe see them switching spots on occasion. Just as Ten and No Code sometimes might switch for me.
