Should have stated that I wouldn't have it in the same slot as Winter Solstice, I'd probably put it after Flee or Wendy & Betsy. Like I said, I know it's a hill I'll die on haha
Also, I still love Winter Solstice. It's not even close to my least favorite song on the album. Speaking of, if y'all had to pick one song from the LP that you could live with not hearing again, which one is it? I'd probably vote Hydra
live with not hearing again? haha absolutely none of them. least favorite? probably winter solstice but that doesn't mean that i don't still absolutely love it.
It's definitely a Sophie's choice. I simply cannot fathom that starting with CFUTF, mewithoutYou have released 70 songs and I can only think of 2 songs I wouldn't put in the "very good" to "phenomenal" categories. And that doesn't include any appendixes. Can any other band over that time make a claim that is in the same ballpark?
Coheed has 106 songs on their studio albums, and excluding intros, I could probably throw out 15-20 songs and still have 80 I would call good to great.
Grandaddy is the only other band that has the total number of songs I love that rivals the total of mewithoutYou songs I love.
Does any other band hit it out of the park at a higher ratio when it comes to the climax of their songs?
Imagine if you were in Belle & Sebastian and listened to New Wine, New Skins for the first time without knowing you're referenced in it.
