Wandering Star is awesome tho :[ tbh I think Glory Box is one of the most boring tracks here outside of those 3 so my opinion here is to be taken with a salt lol

Im gonna do this up for-real, separated into tiers

Pedestal
Strangers
Biscuit
Numb

Glory Box
Wandering Star
Sour Times
Mysterions

It's A Fire
It Could Be Sweet
Roads

The last three are pretty interchangeable as worst song and are the only three possible contenders and if you disagree i will come to your house and cut your dogs ears off

lmao. fine.

but i have to at least stroke these songs off a little bit here

Pedestal has some of the most memorable scratching in the entire genre, the bass is absolutely bottomless as is trademark of the best era of trip hop, and the bassline itself is one of the phatest things ive ever heard, the percussion switching back and forth from the assault of boom bap hip hop to jazzy ride sizzles is a perfect representation of the duality between how sultry and heavy trip hop can be at the same time, the atmosphere is crushing, and the jazz flute or whatever the fuck it is at the end is the closest thing ive ever been to sex other than sex

top 10 trip hop song

I suppose that's why I'm on the unpopular opinion of liking It's a Fire. As a trip-hop song it certainly isn't that flamboyant but I just love the vocals so much, they're so sweet





anyway dun h8 me pls, i lov the whole album
