No disrespect to the OP'er but this poll is so full of holes I find it hard to support. Duke was only two years after ...And Then There Were Three while Discipline was 7 years after Red. However, Thrak came 11 years after Three of a perfect pair. I know this is just all in fun but...c'mon man. |

Dr. Ryan So is so-so. I'd see Dr. Peter Black but my peter is not black, so that leaves Dr. Ryan Paterson to pat my little "son" down. It's actually good advice. |

I am interested in the creative process and how it becomes disjointed. Not all bands recover from it or are radically altered.

Discipline "stronger and better" than Larks''-Red? Don't make me laugh.

I like Discipline, but I love Red.
I love Godbluff, but I love Pawn Hearts more. If this were merely choosing my favourite album from those listed, it would probably be Godbluff. But if I’m comparing these albums to their predecessors, and voting based on how much stronger and better they are, then it’s probably Drama. I like Tormato, but Drama is a million times stronger and better. Drama has probably the biggest gulf between albums, even if like other albums on the list more than it. |

Easily Godbluff - the greatest VdGG album.

My vote too, although I would give that honour to Pawn Hearts. My favourite is The Least We Can Do.... |

I wanted to vote for KC but truth is I love Duke--but not a comeback just the best album by the 3.

Godbluff far and away here for me. That sh*t is legitimately next level, especially for 1975. VDGG are a band that constantly reinvented their approach with no compromise.

Drama I kind of get but not Duke. There was no line up change or anything like that before right before Duke. ATTWT would have been a better option for this poll imo.

Why does there need to be a line-up change? It’s about coming back after a break - not a break-up. Genesis stated they were taking a break. Duke was their comeback. ATTWT would not have been a better option, and would have made no sense. Then again, as others have already said, there’s already a degree of nonsense to this poll, so I guess it might work….. 😜 |
