toymaker Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Where is the "Its a tie" choice? Both are great. Signals clearly has the best song (Subdivisions). But overall - its a tie. At least tonight. Both have a ton of great songs and both have a few duds. Overall both are wonderful albums. The "it's a tie" vote is not voting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toymaker Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 The two synth albums... which is the best one? Signals or Grace Under Pressure? If Signals and P/G are "the two synth albums," then what are Power Windows and Hold Your Fire? Nintendo game soundtracks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disk98 Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Signals has higher highs and lower lows. Grace Under Pressure is consistent across the board and thus better as a whole. SIGNALS Subdivisions: 10.0The Analog Kid: 10.0Chemistry: 5.0Digital Man: 8.7The Weapon (Part II of "Fear"): 9.5New World Man: 6.7Losing It: 7.8Countdown: 9.0• OVERALL: 8.3 • GRACE UNDER PRESSURE Distant Early Warning: 9.5Afterimage: 7.5Red Sector A: 9.8The Enemy Within (Part I of "Fear"): 9.3The Body Electric: 8.8Kid Gloves: 9.2Red Lenses: 9.0Between the Wheels: 9.4 • OVERALL: 9.1 • I rest my case.

It's understandable why you wouldn't care for the songs about life experiences since you're young. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Na na na Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Both are great in a BIG way....GUP is the better album though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HemiBeers Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 this is a close one. signals saved it because of analog kid. but just barely because losing it and countdown suck. and the signals tour was my first rush show. On GUP the song chord structures are very boring and predictable; many of the songs sound the same as each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cooheed2112 Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Yip. GUP does it for me, but it is VERY close. In fact GUP is probably my most listened to album of all time. It was the reason I built my own Hentor ...check it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every complaint I ever hear against Presto applies to Signals for me. As for Grace, if it wasn't for Red Lenses (which I like, 8/10), GUP would be on par with AFTK, Hems, HYF, VT, PeW and MP, which on my scale are all 10/10's.

DistantEarlySignals Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Signals is their best ever. Grace is also one of their best, but the production kills it for me. The songs are great though, and sound so good live! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
