AboveAverage484 0 Report post Posted February 19, 2007 I prefer Tim, but then again I've always been a sucker for more pop oriented material from indie rock bands; I also prefer New Day Rising to Zen Arcade. At any rate... what do you think? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Oedipus Rex Report post Posted February 19, 2007 Let It Be has a bunch of good stuff; I only really embraced "Here Comes A Regular" on Tim. Pleased To Meet Me smokes both, but you knew that already, because you didn't offer it as an option. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pleased To Meet Me smokes both, but you knew that already, because you didn't offer it as an option. Really, I always thought it was the "bastard son" of the Replacements albums; it has it's moments but it doesn't come close to the above two. Obviously, you disagree, ha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Oedipus Rex Report post Posted February 19, 2007 Then I'm a bastard 'Mats fan, because I love the first three songs, "The Ledge," and "Skyway." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PLAGIARISM! 0 Report post Posted February 19, 2007 Let It Be for me, but to add YET MORE dimensions to the thread I'm going to say that I prefer Sorry Ma, Forgot To Take Out the Trash to Tim and Pleased to Meet Me. I adore all of them, however. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Edwin MacPhisto 0 Report post Posted February 19, 2007 Tim is one of my favorite albums ever. I like the other big two a lot too but listen to Tim the most. Their best blend of anthemic stuff, jangly fun stuff, and face-crushingly depressing stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gary Floyd 0 Report post Posted February 19, 2007 Definately Tim. As Edwin said, it has all of the things that made the 'Mats great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Giuseppe Zangara 0 Report post Posted February 20, 2007 After I accepted that not all the songs were going to be pure jangle like "I Will Dare," my favorite became Let it Be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dobbs 3K 0 Report post Posted February 20, 2007 "Tim" and "Pleased to Meet Me" are tied in my book. I would say Let It Be is a distant third...it's got some good rocking songs, but it's just a little too unpolished for my tastes. Kind of feels like they're getting their goofiness out of their systems before moving on to more mature material, IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

"Lay it Down Clown" and "Shooting Dirty Pool" are as every bit juvenile as the moments of lower humor on Let it Be. Maybe there aren't as many dick jokes.
