wow, that looks shitty... especially with how much I love 7 -9. I've never thought of them as my least favorite, just as their other albums. Take the filler off of Vitalogy & it would easily be in the top 4. It also wouldn't take much to bump Binaural up also... like adding Sad, Fatal & In the Moonlight. Also, before the reissue, Ten was hovering around last, but I've come to appreciate the album again.Post edited by No_ones_rival onMinneapolis 98, Chicago 00, San Fransisco 00, Fargo 03, Thunder Bay 05, St Paul 06 (night 2), Chicago 08 (EV) both nights

It is way too early to slot Backspacer in to this list. In fact, I think now is just the right time to give a fair overall assessment of where S/T fits in ...1996: Toronto 1998: Barrie 2000: Saratoga Springs 2003: Buffalo, Toronto 2005: Kitchener, London, Hamilton, Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto 2006: Toronto x2, Cleveland, Detroit, Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Gorge #1 2007: London, Dusseldorf, Vic, Lolla 2008: WPB, Tampa, DC, MSG x2, Hartford, Boston x2, Beacon 2009: Toronto, Chicago x2, Seattle x2, LA #3&4, San Diego, Philly x4 2010: Cleveland, Buffalo, Hartford 2011: Montreal, Toronto x2, Hamilton 2012: Missoula 2013: London, Wrigley, Pittsburgh, Buffalo, Hartford, Dallas, OKC0

I've been listening to Ten the least these days thus its position and I do agree that ranking Backspacer is a bit too early knowing how I'll usually listening to their newer records when its just released.better to live one day as a lion, than a thousand year as a lamb0 -
1. Ten, - am not a fan of people who always say that a bands early stuff was their best, but I just cannot deny the feeling I get whenever I hear this album. The re-issue has even reminded me how unbelievable it truly was for a "debut" album. Not too many bands have an album that is completely classic. Led Zepplins first is the only one that compares for me.
2. Everything else. I think all the other albums have ups and downs. But most of them are very good. The songs seem to take on a new life once they begin performing them live. Songs like STBC and Save you are sort of throw aways on the albums for me, but in concert they are usually some of my favorites.
Agree that it is really early to rank Backspacer, but I am thinking that 5 to 6 years from now when the songs have all been played live a lot and taken on their new life it will go down as another great album that takes you on a ride from start to finish.
What a great f'n bandthat’s right! Can’t we all just get together and focus on our real enemies: monogamous gays and stem cells… - Ned Flanders
