I kind of agree with most of this.

But Document - it's FAR too low! It's probably my third favourite.

It's not that I don't love it...I love them all but it's just up against so much competition. Also if it wasn't for WTTO it'd be even lower. Certainly lower than Fables and probably ATS which I love. It fit's my moods more esp. in winter.

Monster is way too low, it's easily my second fave after Murmur

Monster is terrible. There are maybe two good songs on it, maybe.

I agree with "What's the Frequency, Kenneth?" but I can't stand "Star 69". The second song I was thinking of was "Crush with Eyeliner" but I just went and listened to it after not hearing it for many years and was kind of unimpressed. So maybe there's only one good song on Monster.

Other than the popular singles. I sadly, haven't listened to much by them. I have listened to "Automatic For The People" and highly enjoyed it.

I recommend that you listen to Murmur next. Automatic is great but Murmur is sublime. A great debut album.
