Mr. Not Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 (edited) I wouldn't know how to separate worst and lowlight (I'll try to anyway) Edited December 24, 2014 by Mr. Not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

len(songs) Posted December 24, 2014 Author Share Posted December 24, 2014 (edited) I wouldn't know how to separate worst and lowlight (I'll try to anyway)Example: I would put Anagram as "worst" on Presto, but War Paint and Hand Over Fist would get a "lowlight" tab for being, along with Anagram, noticeably weaker than the rest of the album. Basically, "lowlight" can be applied to more than one while "worst" is only one song. Edited December 24, 2014 by len(songs) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxdistortion Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 PW was always a great album, but with the boys giving the album alot of love on the CA tour, I fell in love with it even more, and it may have cracked into my top 5. Good: Emotion Detector, Mystic Rhythms, TerritoriesBetter: Grand Designs, Middletown DreamsBest: Big Money, Manhattan Project, Marathon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
