    previous ranking under spoiler tag:

    [..]
    SOE has shaken the foundations of my all time ranking of the albums

    Making this list "from the heart" and then going back three months ago,
    I suddenly ranked AB over TUF...the latter perhaps always infused with
    too much teenage sentiment...

    1. JT (1)
    2. AB (3)
    3. TUF (2)
    4. SOE (-)
    5. War (4)
    6. ATYCLB (6)
    7. NLOTH (linear) (7)
    8. Boy (8)
    9. SOI (6)
    10. HTDAAB (10)
    11. R&H (9)
    12. October (11)
    13. Zooropa (12)
    14. Pop (13)

    PS: please note that I still enjoy HTDAAB and R&H very, very much...
    And October. Zooropa and Pop all hold fantastic songs, but, well, as albums I don't think they're that good...

    New album ranking after seeing to e+i shows...and not having Streets in the set

    1. JT (1)
    2. AB (2)
    3. SOE (4)
    4. TUF (3)
    5. ATYCLB (6)
    6. NLOTH (linear) (7)
    7. War (5)
    8. Boy (8)
    9. HTDAAB (10)
    10. SOI (9)
    11. October (12)
    12. R&H (11)
    13. Zooropa (13)
    14. Pop (14)*

    Biggest shock is that I've come to accept that SOE is actually better than TUF...my youth sentiments are fading away...

    * ...and Pop is last because it is all irony and avant-garde...there is really no rating appropriate for this album. It is unique in every sense.
    It's Art. As soon as it gets analyzed it becomes "concept" (and "narrative" ) ...and that is just so...un-PoP…
    (so now you know... )

    EDIT: Thought it might be fun to include a review we agree with of favorite / least favorite album that more or less describes why we rank those albums at top or bottom. Here's Achtung: http://www.hotpress.com/archive/441629.html. And here's ATYCLB, though the writer is a little harsher than I would be, giving it a 5/10 where I'd rank it at a 6 or 7, probably: https://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/8329-all-that-you-cant-leave-behind/

    Pretty harsh for white as snow I always thought it was decent I respect your opinion however
  12. It was a typo, admittedly, that I thought was sorta funny so I left it. Come to think of it, I might rate Boots or Stand Up Comedy lower than White as Snow.
