still maintain this album features the best opener+closer combo among Brand New’s entire oeuvre.

I'm gonna have to go Vices and Noro

Album Rating: 4.5
I'm conflicted, because Noro is the best closer but [user above me] is the best opener. But I think my love for SS+Handcuffs outweighs Lit Me Up+Batter Up (lol just realized they both have Up in the name)

Album Rating: 5.0
I'd have to put Lit Me Up + Batter Up as the best just because of the narrative connection. Though really picking BN songs is like picking children. I love them all in the grand scheme of things.

If I had to rank them:
1. Lit Me Up / Batter Up
2. Vices / Noro
3. Tautou / Play Crack the Sky
4. Sowing Season / Handcuffs
5. The Shower Scene / Soco Amaretto Lime
Funny to see TD&G at #4 considering it's my favorite Brand New album. But that one had always struck me as the most consistently amazing CD they've done, not necessarily riddled with mere peaks of greatness. (That is to say, the other albums may have a few slightly higher "highs," but TD&G is consistently greater than all of them.)
I'm probably not making any sense.
Either way this exercise has only proven how strong BN is(/was?) at opening and closing albums.

why do you need both an S and A+ tier
|
| |
I just had an A tier to begin with but thought those two tracks were work differentiating and couldn't be bothered to apply deflation to the rest of the list
|

I mean technically you don't need any tier delineation when speaking solely in the context of the album in question. I'm trying to tier based on a broader scope, I guess. So if S is like a 5.0 and A is like a 4.0, then A+ is like a 4.5. Just more resolution I guess. (Or another way to think of it, A+ is like, definitely better than the As, but Ss are reserved for god tier tracks and it's not quite there yet.)
Also I'm not sure exactly what S stands for. Either Superior or Super or Special or something. People commonly use it when tiering out fighters in fighting games. I think it might be a cultural thing (Japan) because I've even seen video games themselves that have an S-rank that it superior to A. If I'm not mistaken, I think Dance Dance Revolution uses "S" as a grade of your performance that's better than "A".

Revisited this for the first time since the first few months of it's release, and.. feel pretty conflicted, still think it's a near masterpiece, and only Logic is really dragged down in reflection.

Same Logic was written by Vin Accardi.
It’s also a perfect song.
