While I do believe Stupid Dream is a better album overall, this has some crazy highlights. The first three tracks form one of the best intros to an album I've ever heard. Lips of Ashes is heavenly!

^Exactly how I feel. Also, some of the heavier tracks sound very similar

Strip the Soul sux



I do much prefer Deadwing to this, though. It's easily my favorite post-Lightbulb Sun PT album; all the others are kinda meh.
