i sort of agree with this:

1. BTCS
2. Crash
3. UTTAD (AFTW could move with UTTAD)
4. Busted Stuff
5. Stand Up
6. BWGGK
7. Everyday

despite a few listens, AFTW has that "dreamy" feel that makes UTTAD exceptional. it's not as in your face as Crash. UTTAD and AFTW are totally different though, because the band is in a different state mentally--and in just about every other aspect. but AFTW feels dreamy in the same way that UTTAD does because each record is almost overly optimistic. i don't know, i'm rambling and excited after hearing this.

and i don't really like BWGGK because the whole thing seems forced. SU is a record that sounds really good, but the musical ideas aren't quite there. BWGGK has the ideas, but the whole thing seems to be more about the story of the music than the physical product.
