Hmmm, that's from the 'rank the studio albums thread' from a while back. I'd agree with most of it but now I reckon I'd swap THB and EMG.

And PFAYM can come 9th above SATT I think...

His thoughts on Truth are utter rubbish and Lifeblood does sound like the Manics!

I don't quite share his opinion on the order but he makes some good points, especially about Know Your Enemy having a great 10 track album in there.

I know he's not the person who reviewed it, but at the time I'm sure the NME gave Lifeblood 8/10.

I've a picture of an old poster somewhere on my old hard drive that's covered in glowing reviews of Lifeblood.
Can we print this and blow it up and wave it fron of the band and the world at the O2?

They don't, which is why they are so great. They've made their best albums when they've been trying to be something different.
