Nahhhhhh I can't agree with that at all. The Albatross was varied BUT it kept a central theme throughout. The metaphor was amazing and they never dropped it across the album. The story was consistent even though the song's themselves were all individually unique.
Dealer is something of the opposite, similar songs and styles but no central theme or story. It just makes it inherently less interesting to me.
That said I have both at a 4.5 and I originally gave Dealer a 5. I'm not hating on Dealer, I just can't say that it's better. If I'm playing my songs on Shuffle I can listen to any song from the Albatross at will, but if I shuffle a song from Dealer I'm more likely to skip it because I really only like it in the context of the album and I need to be in the right mood for it.

Fair enough opinion. I think Dealer being more cohesive as an album is one of its strengths compared to The Albatross being varied.
Also, I passed by the billboard in STL for this album...really weird having an emo band advertise an album on a billboard

Very good album but The Magdalene is so much better than everything else. Every way he sings "Undone" is perfect.
