Hold on, let me throw The Mars Volta onto the pile while we're at it. We're really close to making a decision here, I can feel it.

I considered both TMV and JJ. I didn't go with the former cuz it misses the debut but includes some of their weaker later albums. JJ is the opposite: strong recent material but some of the earlier stuff isn't as strong.

^ I agree early JJ albums are not as strong as later releases, it's from What We Must onward where they really nailed it. If I remember correctly it was released in 2005.
