And to each, their own. And that is certainly me as I am in the minority as it is a near tie between Confusion and Sister for my favorite album, with Daydream not far behind. Sister is near perfection, in so many ways. I enjoy the noisy, experimental and chaotic nature of the early albums. That said, the S/T is fairly tight and almost has post-disco vibes. I appreciated the approach of NYC Ghosts. Dirty is far and above Ripped.
And The Whitey Album is fun, but I've never considered it a true S-Y album. It is basically them goofing off and having some fun. Although, Burnin' Up is pretty darn cool, as well as some of the instrumentals/atmospherics.
It also matters greatly where we are in our lives when this stuff hits us.
