08.26.20 | In all honesty, Instant Gratification, Happiness, and Downtown Battle Mountain rotate at spots 1-3 depending on my general mood. Each of these albums bring forth the strengths of each respective vocalist. |

08.26.20 | If you're gonna rank album art, then add in Tree City Sessions and the singles. Those have pretty cool artwork, along with the instrumental variants. |

08.26.20 | Honestly I've always been meaning to give this band a proper listen. Where might be a good place to start? |

08.26.20 | I would start from the very beginning, WISIRO gets too much hate imo. Heads up, you'll cycle through vocalists:
Jonny Craig-WISIRO, DBM, DBM2
Kurt Travis- S/T, Happiness
Tilian Pearson- Acceptance Speech, Instant Gratification, Mothership, Artificial Selection, Afterburner |

08.26.20 | I think that listening to the DGD albums in chronological order is appropriate and makes the most sense from an evolutionary perspective. However, I think the most polished and accessible album is Mothership. Following Mothership, I would recommend the Kurt Travis era albums next (Self-Titled, Happiness), followed by DBM I & II. Also, I don't mind Tilian, but I've secretly been hoping for another vocalist change-up. Artificial Selection and Afterburner didn't bring much to the table and it's easy to hear that DGD are simply selling repackaged ideas at this point in time, which is a shame. |

08.26.20 | It’s impossible to even quantify how much better Dance Gavin Dance’s artwork is than their albums. It’s like trying to measure how much wetter an ocean is than a desert. |

08.26.20 | Instant gratification being your favorite DGD album is weird cuz that’s probably my least favorite of theirs.
For the art tho 1 is 1 |

08.26.20 | Also yeah I started with DBM1 and only went back to WISIRO later and I kinda would recommend that instead. Times New Roman is the perfect intro to DGD |
