I prefer Absolution, but Symmetry was a good sort of stepping stone to what was to come. Black Holes wasn't quite as good as i'd hoped

No I haven't, but after what I heard in BHAR, I sure will follow that advice! Great band, original yet simple, rocky yet poppy, excellent.


Great description of their sound!

I just heard BHAR and it's amazing... My only complaint is the vocals are too much copy/paste from Radiohead's Yorke (with a little bit Bono in the mix), but the music (and the way those vocals go over it) are great and should be in the art rock section. Great album.

Then hear it! A great album it is. Not better than Absolution, but still very good. Thumbs Up

I probably look at the question with a more 'pop' minded view when i say i think black holes and revalations is their best album, but i think its absolutely brilliant, probably do to the fact that I was introduced to their music through this album.... obviously they are all of high quality.
Love the song plug in baby

Absolution is the best I think, although Starlight is probably their best song I think.

Black Holes and Revelations is indeed good, not at all as bad as many here have said (in my opinion, of course)

I believe "Origin of Simmetry" is far more original than the commercial song-oriented "Absolution". Still, my vote goes to to "Black Holes and Revelations", a very epic work and the one which fills more in the concept of a "movie for the ears".

I conclude that Showbiz is underappreciated here.

Absolution - their best yet and "proggiest" imo.

Absolution is a brilliant album, even if it doesnt have Citizen Erased, which is easily their best song.
Spending more than I should on Prog since 2005

The debut was a good album, but it missed a certain 'something' - Origin Of Symmetry hits all the right buttons for me every time I play it; I'm just not sure they've reached that level again since...
