I asked about Scatterbrain earlier, then I wasn't here when y'all were talking about Scatterbrain.

Shit.

Honestly I dig every tune here except for "We Suck Young Blood" and to a lesser extent "The Gloaming"

I know very few people will agree with me but I think We Suck Young Blood is actually better than Life in a Glasshouse. Both wrecthed, plodding tunes sung by a dying cat, but I like We Suck Young Blood's atmosphere much more. Give me a vampire's funeral in slow motion over Thom Thumb trapped in a jar in some Victorian dive bar.

Fair argument poly, much as I disagree ("Glasshouse" is a 5 for me, "We Suck" is in the 1.5-2 range)

Both songs are in the 'worst songs of human creation so far' bracket for me

Both songs are still better than Coldplay though, naturally

also, Dylan620 from that opinion + rating i think you may be the man i agree with most on HTTT on this site - those would be my "weak picks" as well, specifically with Gloaming being the lesser of the two offenders

Prob gonna get a bit trampled on for this one but this is pretty much on par with Pablo Honey for me as an album.

You've got one debut, commonly regarded as shoddy, you can enjoy with low expectations, where every good moment feels like a little miracle.

Then there's the album that succeeded a run of classics, where the standard had been set dizzyingly high, and every dull moment or less-than-stellar track is going to grate like hell.

Not a mystery to me.
