I rate songs pretty liberally in comparison to my album ratings, yeah. I can not stress enough that this is a fantastic album, I just don't think it's higher than a 3.5(or in this case a 75/100 - 3.75/5.0).

Most 3.5 albums have a lot of 5's tbh

Album Rating: 5.0

But I mean that track rating average (4.19) is about the same as mine would be and would make pretty much any album an auto 4.5 in my book. You do you I guess.

"(4.19) is about the same as mine would be and would make pretty much any album an auto 4.5 in my book."

Wouldn't it be an auto 4.0? Rounding up would be weird with that average. Besides it's all about how an album comes together for me. Most of my 4.0's are albums pretty essential to me, 4.5s are classics, 5s are god tier. This is not essential imo, even if it's a really great album.

But yeah, opinions I guess : )

Album Rating: 5.0

Track rating average =/= album rating. Though 4.19 would actually be a bit low for some 4.5s. But even my absolute favorite albums would have an average track rating of around 4.7 max.

"Track rating average =/= album rating."

So then why did you use that against me? Lol.

Boney bro how would you rank the songs here?

Thinking about it "Secret Meeting" is a more amazing song than I've generally given it credit for.

I have all their LPs starting at Sad Songs digitally, but it and High Violet are the only ones of which I have a physical copy (both CDs). I should probably change that
