Neither album is perfect for me, but Pawn Hearts has more minutes of music that I like, and I like that music better than anything on Octopus, so VDGG for me.

Good friends, my readers, who peruse this book,
Be not offended, whilst on it you look:
Denude yourselves of all deprav'd affection,
For it contains no badness nor infection,
'Tis true that it brings forth to you no birth
Of any value, but in point of mirth;
Thinking therefore how sorrow might your mind
Consume, I could no apter subject find;
  One inch of joy surmounts of grief a span;
  Because to laugh is proper to the man

- François Rabelais.

Octopus, of course.
- From each according to his ability, to each according to his need.

Both awesome. Pawn Hearts wins because it is better than the album before it, while I feel like Acquiring the Taste is the best GG album.
