my top 5, at least for now, would probably be: Stars Are Projectors>Third Planet>Life Like Weeds>Tiny Cities Made of Ashes>Gravity Rides Everything

Any top 5 should have at least "Third Planet" and "Life Like Weeds" on it, that's the base requirement

Yep, those two + Projectors are the album's holy trinity. The rest is pretty anything-goes, ig you have Tiny Cities, Perfect Disguise and Dark Center fighting over the other top spots

"Perfect Disguise" may not be a top for me but I do have to respect the immaculate vibes

It wasn't an instant winner for me tbh, just held up surprisingly well while the other tracks gradually showed an increasing number of "eh" qualities. Was gonna make a list ranking this but I used up my slot for today RIP

considering TLCW is one of the greatest albums ever, i’m gonna give that one a hard [4]

LCW is better than this but I also think this is the better introduction to the band

I like LCW a bit more than this but you could tell any of modest mouse's first 4 are your favorite and it wouldn't be a hot take

As long as you’re counting Making Nothing... as one of the first 4 I can agree with that.

Relistening for the first time in a little while and yep it's still not as good as LCW

Also still miles above what just about any other indie band could accomplish in even their wildest fantasies

Other indie bands accomplished better in this reality though, so

Nux Vomica and Reconstruction Site are both head and shoulders above this when it comes to vaguely contemp. emotionally driven treatises of guitar indie

This one is on a similar occasionally convincing Statement tier to the Devil and God is Raging Inside Me, for better and worse
