    trying to rank the 00's albums .. for me
    1- Riot act
    2- Backspacer
    3- Binaural
    4- Avocado
    2nd and 3rd very close, almost interchangeable
    Avocado by far the last
  3. As I have recently admitted, I only recently started to listen to Riot Act in its entirity (I was missing out on some great tunes) and still have to give Backspacer more of a chance. I know the singles and a few others but I need to give the deeper cuts a closer listen. It's my October project - until you know what is released.
  4. I've got Ten and Rearviewmirror. Should I go with the Vs. and Vitology pack with the bonus live cd next?
  5. Definitely!!! Absolutely!!!

    waiting for my 3 disc deluxe edition - bluray copy
    or do you mean the other one you know what is released? hehe


  7. Yeah, definitely. It's got relatively cheap now. The sound on the live cd is great, but I personally thought the remastering on Vs. and Vitalogy was disappointing - I listened to Animal, for example, and in my opinion, the original version sounded better

    Vs. is a great album, I think it's almost up there with Ten, but Ten just beats it. Vitalogy is great as well, not up to the standards of the other two, in my opinion.

    Both!

    To be honest, I'm focussing on two-disc AB "remaster" and two official PJ bootlegs (both T.O. shows).

    I really want to see the two movies (U2's and PJ's) as well as wait to see what is on this infamous third AB disc.


  9. I've always said RVM is a great starting point for PJ. I think you will eventually have to consider getting No Code and Yield as well.

    All three are classics but for me:
    1. Vs
    2. Ten
    3. Vitalogy
    ...the higher position just edges out the lower one in each case.

    Yield, for me, is a very close fourth.
  11. making me decide positions for the first 3 albums is like making me choose between Joshua and Achtung .. simply i can't
    with a gun to my head i would say Ten .. maybe .. for affection
    in any case whatever is the choice it's right!
  12. I see your point.

    I can understand wht someone might pick the other two over Vs. Ten is solid all the way through (no unlistenable tracks) and has some great b-sides and outtakes while Vs has one track I don't really like (Blood - it's just too much noise for me) and only a couple of b-sides. Vitalogy has a lot of interesting sounds and, what I thought at the time of its release, awesome cover art/packaging. I also pair the Merkinball EP with Vitalogy giving it that much more weight.

    However, I have listened to Vs more than any other PJ album and simply love tracks like Go, Animal, RVM, Dissident, Daughter, Small Town, Glorfied G, Indfference...and even WMA (which got some critisism when Vs was released).
