I didn't do a relisten before voting. With Christmas on just now I think Little Drummer Boy might have got top 20. SO MUCH NOISE.

There's a few i haven't heard but no way do Low have 10(!!) albums that are even better than Long Division.

i might be biased cause it was the first one i picked up, but i was under the impression it was their highest regarded release for a time pre-TWLITF? Secret Name or maybe Christmas was their current release then.

I *love* Long Division AND, according to my ballot, therr e are a solid six Low albums that are better.
