I know. It's on the essentials chart, but I never see it discussed on here.

Is that supposed to be This Is Happening? That's amazing.

i feel like people purposely ignore this album because it's their first without Billy Zoom, but i honestly think it's equally as good as their early stuff. the songwriting is still completely on point.
>>
>>60307291
That's how I discovered it. It was pretty reasonably successful in its time but now it seems to have fallen off the deep end.

their best album tbqfh
>>
>>60306923
Seriously? How is that album underrated?
>>
>>60310501
My thoughts exactly. Not only is it considered one of their best albums, it's also consideered one of the most important albums of the entire '90's. If anything it's overrated in their canon compared to 'Push The Button' or 'Surrender.'
>>
>>60310600
I thought Further was amazing, critics just gave that like a 7 or something.

criminally underrated band to be honest family. their latest release sucked but their first 2 are top tier imo and even their 3rd was pretty solid too

>>60310716
their trajectory has been remarkably similar to Smashing Pumpkins

hopefully this was their Zeitgeist and they will go back to the drawing board and release something at least decent
>>
>>60310684

Further was baller as fuck especially with the videos. Sure some of their previous albums have higher highs but Further is probably their tightest overall package.

>Pikul/Gish

>Carnavas/Siamese Dream
>easily their best albums

>Swoon/Mellon Collie
>solid releases but troubling signs in their progression

>Neck of the Woods/Adore
>shitty grimdark fare

>Better Nature/Machina
>bloated overproduced shit with only a couple of nuggets that remind you why you even liked these bands in the first place
>>
>>60310785
I was actually just speaking with a friend a few days ago about how similar their careers have been. I hope you're right anon, they definitely have the talent to make something great.
