Is HIPT their best album?

Axtech your pretty accurate in what your saying.

I'd say HIPT is more then likely their 4th best though.

It beats out Naveed in my opinion, and beats Gravity as well. But its still a great album.

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.

That's your opinion. I think it includes some of OLP's best melody songs, i just can't get it how come u guys hate it so much, for god sake, how can you NOT LOVE songs like SOM, innocent, not enough, BBTS?!?!

but again, everyone has is opinion...
btw i rated Gravity first and clumsy last, and i can tell that 7 of the songs in clumsy (SD, AF, carnival, 4am, shaking, clumsy and car crash) i REALLY love so i basicly conects with all of OLP's work, all types, all times, each album for another reason and for its highlights.

Haha, I dont hate gravity.

But out of all their work, it CLEARLY isnt their best. Musically, its not their best. I like gravity, but everyone can agree on the fact it isnt their best album. Its not my opinion, its pretty much a fact.

I've said this before, but I'll say it again for a brand new batch of n00bs.

QUALITY OF MUSIC - OR ANY ART FORM - IS COMPLETELY 100% SUBJECTIVE
(this means that some people will like it and some people won't. it depends on each person's personal opinon, which makes arguing about it and debating the same thing over and over pretty damn stupid)

i don't agree with that. i have another friend who's a fan, he doesn't agree with that (gravity is rated #1 in his scale too)- it's NOT a fact. i'm not sure u get the difference between facts and opinion. music is a matter of taste. now you that's only YOUR taste that u can claim for a fact...

Hah, I like naveed, but I think HIPT is more well rounded.

Here's how I'd rank them

1. Happiness... Is Not A Fish That You Can Catch (this album is so good, Thief is absolutely amazing, there is not a single bad song on this record)

2. Spiritual Machines (there aren't any bad songs on here either, but I just like Happiness just a little more)

3. Healthy In Paranoid Times (all the songs are good, but Where Are You definitely is a weak point, other than that, it kicks ass)

4. Naveed (I LOVE this album, these top 4 are under a blanket it's so close)

5. Clumsy (I'll get flak for this one, but I'm not a huge Clumsy fan, just something about it knocks it down here)

6. Gravity (A great album, but it's lacking that spark that came from the other records, imo the whole album just blends together and I get a little bored around MoS)

That's my opinion, I know some people love Gravity, and a lot find it their worst by far, but I'd probably still have it in my top 12 albums on my whole rack (almost 100 cds).

Gravity reeks of genericness!

This album is easily better than some of their earlier stuff..its a way more complete album than most of their stuff. EASILY..

naveed99 · Post by **naveed99** » 8/24/2005, 8:00 pm

hmmm..

This album is good, but I dont think it couldve made me obsessed with OLP like the others did.

Because nobody understands the concept of WAITING. :wall:

Oh yes, and I can't believe nobody posted this yet with all the Gravity debating going on...

why is everyone so crictical of gravity when it was first realsed everyone thought it was amazing and alot of ppl were saying it was the best one as it had some cool ass guitar solos in Not Enough and bring back the sun and also Raine voice in sell my soul and sorry is fooking brilliant--- but now ppl hate it just cus the album did so well and they acheived more fans whom probably didnt know OLP had any other albums--- its really that u hate those fans and not album itself i mean i rated the album last too but thats just putting a number on it i dont really think you can rate the OLP albums as there alll fooking brilliant!!!!

HIPT is their best cd, and this is why. When you have songs like...

Angels losing sleep
Will The future blame us
Picture
Boy
Apology
Wipe that smile off your face
Love and trust
Al Genina
Walking in circles

It is just set up with so much depth

I look at their other cds

Clumsy : 4am, Clumsy, Supermans dead, Automatic flowers, Carnival
Naveed: Starseed, Naveed, Birdman, Hope, Denied, Julia
Happiness- OMa, IAH, theif, stealing babies, blister
SM: RBY, life, inrepair, middle of yesterday, future
Gravity: NotEnough

I think this cd just out does the others with depth, although it still doesnt have a song like 4am or supermans dead, its still one hell of a cd.

HIPT
Clumsy
Naveed
Happines
SM
Live

Gravity
