2nd toughest
 

surely the best album ever made ?:p

disagree with me if you can justify

Re: 2nd toughest
 

I wouldn't dream of challenging you on this one, Rog me old mate. I have some truly awesome memories associated with this album. Lushness. :)

Re: 2nd toughest
 

I actually prefer Dubno over 2nd Toughest, but only because of "Dirty Epic."

Neither would be in my All-Time Top 10 though .:p

Re: 2nd toughest
 

I do believe the honourable gentleman used the word "justify"...... :p

Re: 2nd toughest
 

Cardiacs - Sing to God

Re: 2nd toughest
 

I also prefer Dubno, and I justify this on the basis that it's better.

Re: 2nd toughest
 

Same here...

Re: 2nd toughest
 

'underneath the radar' is my vote!

Re: 2nd toughest
 

Dubno wins, hands down, no contest.

STITI is still a great album.

Re: 2nd toughest
 

i'd say STITI because of the greatness of track 1 and 2, 3, 4 ,5, 6 and 7

Re: 2nd toughest
 

u got to be joking........

Re: 2nd toughest
 

and still no justification......myshkin, yr justification sucks:D

it blatently isn't better

Re: 2nd toughest
 

That is a classic. Not that anyone else knows the Cardiacs here tho probably. However, I think the album 'A Little Man and a House and the Whole World Window' is a better album :)

As for STITI, well i think it is my favourite album overall. Its only let down by the fact it doesnt have Kittens on it :p

Re: 2nd toughest
 

havnt listened to underworld in years.

Re: 2nd toughest
 

unfortunate nick you have then. time to go back and listen :)

Re: 2nd toughest
 

nor me.........

Re: 2nd toughest
 

that mix tape I made from all the albums is the best.

Re: 2nd toughest
 

why don't you just buy the compilation?........cheapskate!:D

i listen to it all the time in my van.......

Re: 2nd toughest
 

Clearly we should have another Survivor poll, except this time with all of the albums ever made.

Re: 2nd toughest
 

i gotta agree, but Rog surely is opening this out to all albums, and hence Technique by New Order is much better than both...because it still stands the test of time today and is the pinnaccle of New Order's career and is a mixture of acid house daze and proper songwriting, its the album of my life then and i still play it now very often, whereas STITI, while still a good album just doesn't have that special extra something, and dubno is also better..... imho

Re: 2nd toughest
 

Can't say New Order have especially done it for me, though Blue Monday of course a classic. Technique sounded a bit thin and even dated around the time it came out to my ears.

Re: 2nd toughest
 

For me Technique is piece of art, from my top 5 albums of all time.

Re: 2nd toughest
 

Must dig it out and give it a listen or two again. Long time since I heard it.

Re: 2nd toughest
 

while i like new order and technique is my fav album i still think that you have to go back to the root to hear them doing their best work.
"closer" joy division is head and shoulders above any new order album.

Re: 2nd toughest
 

dubno is better than stiti... but i'm not sure if either would be in my top 10. maybe dubno would be no. 10.
it's funny, i only like river of bass when i'm half asleep, and it just seems to run over you like an actual river or something, it's a great song.

Re: 2nd toughest
 

STITI is the most pleasant album to listen. There is no other STITI, just as album to listen.

Dubno is awesome album full of great songs, but STITI have some spirit, do you know what I mean? Im sure you know;)
