I was thinking about it earlier, and I actually think Vacancy is my favorite, probably followed by Killing Time. I also really like the artwork for the first acoustic record and the live record, as well. Come to think of it, I actually like all of their album covers to an extent, and as I mentioned before, I love the ongoing border/logo theme.
Can’t believe it’s already been 3 years! Just listened to it in its entirety to celebrate. Very ready for the next record!
Killing time for sure, but I do like the vacancy artwork and the direction they went with the Shudder art too. I think for the most part their album art is pretty subpar though

Boy vs. The Whitest Lie Go on, give up, you'll never win... except for this time because "Boy" is a great song. Masterpiece vs. Landing Feet First LFF will win, and that's fine, but Masterpiece will always be special to me. Blame it on Bad Luck vs. Mary I mean, it's a freaking Bruce Springsteen song that Bayside wrote and it absolutely works. Killing Time vs. Winter Either choice is deserving here.
It’s a top 5 for me. In no particular order: Boy Two Letters Dear Tragedy Landing Feet First Don’t Call Me Peanut HM: Transitive Property
Off the top of my head, my top 5 Bayside songs would probably go something like: Killing Time Boy Mary On Love, On Life The Walking Wounded That was actually really hard. Honorable mentions to: Half A Life, Montauk, Masterpiece, Objectivist on Fire, Landing Feet First, all of Killing Time, Demons, and the first three song of Vacancy
If we are doing top fives, here are my top six (I can't cut one) in no particular order: Sinking and Swimming on Long Island The Ghost of Saint Valentine Mary Landing Feet First The Walking Wounded They Looked Like Strong Hands
Long Island Peanut Walking wounded Bad luck Killing time Peanut/landing and killing time / already gone could be swapped out depending on my mood. Besides Long Island it’s a pretty standard list but a lot of the songs have very particular memories / relationships attached to them at this point in time.
Scratch my last post. 22/25 possible votes are in, and none of the results can change, so I’m going to get a jump on the next round. Final scores: Boy - 16 The Whitest Lie - 6 Masterpiece - 6 Landing Feet First - 16 Blame it on Bad Luck - 14 Mary - 8 Killing Time - 19 Winter - 3
