It's got to be the Greatest Hits album for me! So many hits, they were really on fire when they made that one! :grin:

Great stuff glad that's your favourite one from them... i tend to prefer album tracks that wern't commercially written and recorded to be a single hit and the ones that could never make a good single were more often than not their best work as i'm more of an album fan than a singles fan, but as you have said the singles were great songs and having them all together on one album one after the other is great agreed.

Sorry I was just impersonating Alan Partridge when he said The Best of the Beatles had to be his favourite Beatles album!

I think it's impossible for me to say really. I've got fond memories of Aural Sculpture though. That's was when I really started to get into the band again. I played that album a lot and loved the b sides too. It's not their best album but I look back at that time in my life with fondness. I then discovered some old albums I'd never heard before like The Raven, Meninblack and Nosferatu so it was exciting listening times for me!

This is how i see the ordering as of today

The top 3 are never too far away from the position 1 spot but from position 4 to 10 they can all shuffle around in any position as each different day of listening. Rattus is usually higher but not today for some reason. I have already mentioned why No More Heroes is my favourite on another thread.

No More Heroes
Black & White
The Raven
Gospel According
La Folie
Rattus
10
Feline
Dream Time
Aural Sculpture
