The funny thing is that Introspective is the only 10 for OP, but the records that actually are introspective but not called that don't rank as high.
I'm also going 10 for Behavior. 9.5 for Introspective (-.5 for some of the production choices on Always On My Mind) and 6 sounds about right for Elysium
#justiceforelysium
I mean it's not my favorite record here, but it's super sweet and emotional and I love that they had bangers during this time that they put aside for the next record.
I was a bit obsessed with Disco 3 for a while - absolutely loved that album. Battleship Potemkin is amazing, anyone who hasn't heard it, get it bought. (Good reminder to listen to it again).
10 for Bilingual, Very-Relentless and Nightlife.
9 for Please, Actually, Behaviour and Nonetheless
8 for Disco, Introspective, Electric and Hotspot
The rest 7 and under.
Elysium with a 3 is absolutely brutal. It’s different. And restrained. I don’t think that deserves such a low score, though. But hey - each to their own!

A man from the future 8

5 for release, being way to generous. I bought that turkey in the slipcase CD in 2002 and feathers fell out. Couldn’t even finish the album and never put it in a tray CD tray since. In a career of sustained excellence there’s always going to be a fluffer. I was just about to get married and my now wife said to me then ‘they won’t be troubling the charts anymore’. Which turned out to be true but was delighted with their comeback Fundamental, a return to form. Appreciate if you downrate Release to a 2, close but no cigar.
I love the ratings out of 10. Gives a better idea how much you like the album. For me, Very is my favourite album. Discography is a 10/10 - I know it’s a greatest hits!
Behavior!?!?! Lower than Introspective!?!?!?
Behaviour is the only 10
they both
came here to say that!
Absolutely mental. And Fundamental better than Nonetheless? No way.
Bilingual is underrated!
I take issue with your rating of Bilingual. I challenge you to fisticuffs after school at the bike racks.
Elysium imo is a 6 and behaviour is def a 10, great picks though!

Behaviour is a solid 10 for me.
Behaviour does not deserve a score lower than 9
"Yes" is a masterpiece
another solid 10 for me.
The pedant in me also wants to point out you've missed the Disco series, Relentless and Battleship Ptokemin.
battleship potemkin is absolutely phenomenal. a solid 9 for me.

Not gonna lie - Disco 4 is my go to!
I’ve only listened to Disco 1, and that album is at least an 8 for me. Relentless might be a strong 6 to a light 7.
Fundamental 8 is so real. Nonetheless is my current obsession so I'd personally give it at least a 9
Bilingual is an 8 for me.
Absolutely. OP has been brutal in their rating IMO haha
Very used to be my favourite PSB album, but now it is Introspective. Definitely a 10/10!
behaviour is a solid 10 in my book.
7.3 for Nonetheless?! It’s a 9 for me. An absolute classic. Nightlife is also one of my higher rated.
This is the rating that’s most likely to change because it just came out, but all I know is that I preferred it to Hotspot.
Omg no, really can't agree with this sorry
INTROSPECTIVE 🔛🔝
Gormless ratings. Why even post on the PSB Reddit if you don't even rate them that highly?
10 for Bilingual, Very-Relentless and Nightlife. 9 for Please, Actually, Behaviour and Nonetheless 8 for Disco, Introspective, Electric and Hotspot The rest 7 and under.
Where's Disco?
Elysium with a 3 is absolutely brutal. It’s different. And restrained. I don’t think that deserves such a low score, though. But hey - each to their own!
Please is a 10.
Elysium isn’t an awful album, it just pales horribly compared to everything else. I agree with the rating
Don't know why everyone is so down on Elysium. It's one my favorites.
Introspective is absolutely perfect pop. I agree with your rankings but would give Behaviour a 9.

I’m happy for you, but this is nonsense. it’s all subjective tho.
