My choice (Chorus) ranks at #8 (!) on that list.
Tomorrow's World, The Violet Flame, The Neon, World Be Gone? Better than Chorus?

Not even close.

I stopped reading after he indicated that there are no great tracks on either Snow Globe or Loveboat.

World Be Gone??? Tomorrow's World???
I like The Innocents the most (especially the first half + Witch in the Ditch); but if I were to choose an album to represent the band or introduce them to someone, I'd pick Chorus. It's got the perfect mix of fast and slow tracks; the sound is very synth-y; and it still sounds fresh after so many years.

Weaker track: "Mad As We Are"?!?MikeyC wrote: Wed Apr 28, 2021 11:00 pm I stopped reading after he indicated that there are no great tracks on either Snow Globe or Loveboat.
I maintain that Loveboat has a handful of Erasure's best-written songs *ever* but as we all know, the production could have been better.
Song quality > Album production

No clue how he's put World Be Gone so high. I never listen to this. It's maybe not the "worst" album in that top 15, but certainly close to bottom.
Chorus is the standout for me. When I first heard Chorus the single, I was blown away, like a lot of people at the time. I then heard Love To Hate you as an early promo and thought "wow, this is even better".
