I'd switch Dirt/JoF and also Facelift/Rainier Fog (which is their weakest album imo). But I love seeing BGWTB up there. That album is definitely on par with the best of Layne's AIC and you cannot convince me otherwise.

Dirt and Jar of Flies are basically a coin flip tbh, both are far and away the best thing the band ever did for me.



And ya, totally agree on Black Gives Way to Blue. The t/t, Private Hell, Acid Bubble, Looking In View, and Last of My Kind are just as good as any of their best material, tbh Lesson Learned is really the only one I don’t care for. Take that song out and the record is a 5 imo

Man I just can't get into this one. Too bloated and doesn't have the same oomph as Dirt, just sounds thin

^^Agreed, although I have to admit that the merit of this album fluctuates per the listener's mood.



Whenever I feel worn out and tired, this sounds better than a "good" rating.

Over now is such a great swansong to the original run with Layne, whether or not the title is referencing the impending breakup

The switch up from major scale to haunting acoustic outro hits hard

One of their best tracks for sure. I love that it doesn’t even start out sounding that depressing but god what a sad track

Shame in You is still one of the most depressing songs AiC have ever put out, and that's really saying something

I think there’s plenty of full songs and moments that reach the heights of Dirt but no shot is this the better album. Dirt’s worst song is Godsmack, there’s bare minimum four songs here that are worse.
