The Best Manics' album (2010 edition poll)

This could be interesting... I'm curious if HB wins... or EMG?
I'm for HB surely...

Maybe I should have said it was my last attempt at mass polls in my first post in this thread to keep this years Manics' style.

Anyway I've just fully realized there are 10 Manics' album +8 sets of b-sides (+HB and JFPL small amount). WOW That's great!!! When I first heard them there were just two albums out.

Champagne!

I chose JFPL because THB was too obvious a choice for me. And it would win hands-down.

For me Truth and THB were neck and neck for ages. Then Truth found another gear!

THB for me. I could be forced to listen to that every second of my life, and I would still die thinking "I will never get bored listening to that album." Pure perfection in every note and every word.

Same here. I got into them while they were promoting the release of GATS, possibly why I find it impossible to see why anyone dislikes it

What an odd thing to say. Does that mean you consider JFPL to be their best album purely because everyone else thinks THB is the best and you just like to be different for the sake of it, or does it mean you chose JFPL despite THB being their best album in your eyes, purely because it's obviously going to run away with this utterly meaningless (no offence, Donkey) poll?
