The Weakest Link - Albums - Round 3 - gsmacleod - 09-13-2018

Now For Plan A slips past M@W as the weakest.

12 - Now For Plan A
13 - We Are The Same

Vote for the album that you feel is the weakest overall and after 24 hours we will remove the album with the most votes. In the event of a tie, both (or more) albums will be removed.

Edit - since I messed up poll, I've extended voting until Saturday and then we'll pick things up Monday morning.

Happy voting,

Shane

Can't believe i'm the only IVL vote so far. The only thing that would have made the album stronger would having the 3 outtakes on the album included.

Yea, I'm still baffled by some of the band's decision making over the years regarding track lists and which songs make the cut. Here's how I would have done it for IVL:

Remove: Are You Ready, Use it Up (or maybe Silver Jet)
Add: Problem Bears, Ultra Mundane, Forest Edge...and Boom! You've got yourself a perfect 12 song album.

Same thing for WATS. Skeleton Park should have definitely been on there, as well as that awesome kick-ass unreleased tune at 10:35 of this video. Like holy f**k, why isn't that on the record?

It's not that I dislike Use it Up. It's an ok song. It's just not as good as the 3 unreleased tracks. Any one of those would have made the album better IMO.

Totally agree with you on this, Those 3 tracks are so good. So is Skeleton Park, no way that should have been chopped.
