I'm very very curious to see where HIPT fits into all that...



exactly :nod:

aaanyway, i cant see it being any farther up the list than number 5 with a song like Where Are You on it.
But i'll listen to it with an open mind, and hopefully i can at least pull out a few good songs

I dont think HIPT is their best work to date, but its pretty close.

If you consider the difficulties the band went through, and the amazing quality of songs they came up with, this definitly is one of their top releases.

and for those who said Gravity is there best work, it isnt.
Its not a bad album at all, its quite good, but it doesnt compare with the others.

It's not that I care about grammar that much, its just that I could hardly understand your post. I mean seriously, people from Latin American countries who don't know English very well come on this board and we can understand them better than you. Do you not think there is something wrong with that?

yeah i agree with um people who said they'd like to understand what they're reading... i dont like it very much when i read the same sentence 6 times yet take in nothing.

i doubt that HIPT is their best album because i already know that i am not a big fan of Where Are You and Don't Stop. I haven't heard the full album, yet, though.

My album rankings..

1. happiness/naveed
2. clumsy
3. spiritual machines

...

4. gravity


i am pretty sure that i will like HIPT better than gravity, but i can't see it as their best album, at least not yet.


also.. why couldnt this thread wait for less than a week so we've ALL heard the album :mad:

I love the CD, but I'd put it 5th of 6. That's kind of misleading because some songs on it are worthy stacked up against their older work, unlike almost all of the Gravity CD.

SM
Naveed
Clumsy
Happiness
HIPT

Why is no one a Naveed lover? Its so goood :drool:

I dont know about HIPT, I dislike the song i have heard, but whatever, i'll buy the album. I'd be more surprised if I did like it, but thats okay. OLP is doing their career for themselves, not the fans ultimately :P

1. Naveed
2. Spiritual Machines
3. Clumsy
4. Happiness

Agreed. First four = top four. HIPT = 5th. Gravity = a distant last.

Gravity was..interesting and aside from the monotonous production and lack of creativity of the older albums it wasn't at all a bad record. I think it is still their most structured, most solid album - which is an interesting change for a band known for their frantic energy and insane complexities.

Anyways, here's my list having not listened to HIPT yet:

1. Clumsy
2. Happiness...
3. Naveed
4. Gravity
5. Spiritual Machines

Yes, call me crazy for putting SM last but that's how I really feel about the albums.
