worst by default I suppose.  Parallels was the only song on that album I found remotely intersting.. and the live version on Yesshows blew that away.

Tormato would the obvious vote I suppose.. but damnit.. I simply find that album FAR more interseting. It has the best song of the two albums, and nothing in book is more deadly a sin that being boring.  Tomato wasn't, but always found GFTO so.

Getting excited about redemption Releasing a new ālbum late Feb, so I thought I'd reflect back to what album was the best and which was the worst.

Best: the Origins of Ruin

Worst: Mortal Coil ( unfortunately i felt their latest album wasn't the greatest. Pretty recycled, however still highly listenable. I am hoping for a big spark of innovation come February from Alder lead Redemption.

The Final Cut is a very good album, not anywhere near the Big 3 though (Dark Side, Animals, WYWH). I can see why someone say the studio of Ummagumma is the worst but the live is great. 
I shook my head and smiled a whisper knowing all about the place

Can't deny that it is a bad album. But their best? Even if you like Waters' little political lyric stories, wouldn't you choose The Wall. That kind of seems like you're edgy teen that likes to go against the popular norm.
