It's a highlight for sure but it doesn't beat the first half album streak.

No.

>>70092203
Monitor is in the middle of the album.

>>70092098
Disintegration and Homesick are toward the end of the record.

Lullaby, Disintegration are the best songs

I find the second half stronger overall.
Lullaby
Fascination Street
Prayers for Rain
Disintegration

The four best tracks on the record.

The first half is automatically inferior due to Lovesong

what does front loaded mean?

>>70092905
Are you serious?

>>70095704
the best tracks are in the first half (or so) of the album
>>
>>70092098
What? Nah man, this album is perfect all the way through
>>70092139
This album is so front-loaded that the first track is better than the last nine tracks combined
>>70093228
The last track is good but the 25 minute ambient wankery before it leads me to agree with you
>>70093571
Sadly it's true, but the last two songs are still great. It's just hard to follow up one of the best prog songs of all time

Lovesong is literally a perfect pop song. This is true regardless of how many bad reggae covers come out.

I don't say people's opinions are objectively incorrect, but that's an objectively incorrect opinion
>>
>>70096983
this is true. even though the album as a whole is still great, after Death or Glory it takes a decisive turn for the worse.

I still love Lover's Rock and Train in Vain though

I actually think the beginning is pretty good, it sort of drags in the middle, and starts to pick up steam again towards the end.

The whole thing is pretty good though.

Eh, it's close. I think I like the title track of BBK more than Cherry-Coloured Funk but Iceblink Luck is better than Athol-Brose. Comes down to Pitch The Baby and Carolyn's Fingers and they're both the best songs on the album IMO, and arguably of their main discography. I'd think I'd have to give the streak to BBK as HoLV has songs later on that compete but BBK could've packed it up after Carolyn's Fingers and my opinion of it wouldn't particularly lessen, the album just doesn't reach quite that high again.
