Glass Arm Shattering. It sounds like ink spilling out onto a lake.

TSMS. People need to stop comparing it to Wish and Floyd. They are both amazing pieces.

Collapse Light.  One of their best songs period, and one of the most beautiful, glorious closers to a phenomenal record

Dark Matter easily, it on a whole other level along with Sky Moves Sideways. The rest of the selection are just kind of other songs. 
Crushed like a rose in the riverflow.

Collapse or Stop Swimming.

I'll vote the latter.

I really, REALLY, dislike The Incident, but I think "I Drive The Hearse" is a terrific closer, almost the saving grace of that album.

However, I think "Sleep Together" is their strongest closer overall. I like the quiet ones as well, especially "Colapse..." and "Glass Arm Shattering", while others I think work as songs on their own. "Sleep Together" to me works nicely as the closing section to the album as a whole.
Bigger on the inside.

I Drive the Hearse ain't The Incident finale actually! This ablum ends with Remember Me Lover, and I would definitely vote for it.

But since it's omitted, I'm about to support Fadeaway.

I went with Fadeaway but I Drive The Hearse is so meaningful to me. 
I could have easily picked The Sky Moves Sideways, Dark Matter and It Will Rain For A Million Years.

I don't like much the last tracks from some albums, "Stop Swimming" is my least favourite track from Stupid Dream. I think "Russia on Ice" would be a much better ending for Lightbulb than "Feel So Low". TSMS is my favourite but since it has some votes already, I voted for "It Will Rain..."

Collapse The Light - a beautiful song and a wonderful album.
