Was listening to WATS and was thinking about my favorite album in various stages of the Hip's career.
Likely open for debate I would categorize their album stages something like this:
Earliest: EP, UTH, RA, FC
Middle: DFN, TATH, PP, MAW
Latest: IVL, IBE, WC, WATS, NFPA
What are your choices?
Here are mine ...
Early - RA
Middle - TATH
Latest - WC

Early - Up To Hear (too many great memories to go along with it)
Mid - Day For Night
Late - IBE (to me it is the closest sounding to the early/mid stuff)

Yup. Plus it's the best sounding (sonically) Hip studio album in the last 20 years...IMO

Phantom Power
World Container... although Now for Plan A might take over, maybe.
Out of all the albums "henhouse" has always been the most difficult for me.
