I know they're a little weird, but I can safely say I listen to "De-loused in the Crematorium" on a daily basis.

They went downhill from their first. De-loused is excellent, Frances is well-done and Amputechture is OK. Bedlam doesn't even meet the standards they've set for themselves. I have expected so much for them.

I totally agree, De-Loused was by far their best.

De-Loused may have been their best, but I don't think you can write off their following albums, least of all Bedlam. It's just that you don't get as much from the rest of the albums on the first or second listen. I mean when you first heard de-loused it was mind blowing, and it just keeps getting better every time you listen to it. Kinda make it a tough comparison. The rest of the albums are really good if you give them a few listens. Flea's trumpet on Frances the Mute - amazing, Vicarious Atonement on Amputechture is like televators part 2, and there are a few songs on bedlam that come so close to capturing the energy of de-loused. And don't forget scabdates.

De-loused was soo good.

At first I hated Bedlam, like absolutely hated it, except for Wax Simulraca[sp?].
Now I can say I like it, but it's not my favourite.

I've been listening to it A LOT lately. I even got my brother to start liking them, which is a big feat for me, because it's usually him sharing musics with me. I listen to a lot softer music than him.

De-Loused is great. Probably my favorite modern concept album. As for order of goodness, its De-Loused>Bedlam>Frances> Amputechture. Sorry to say, but Frances the Mute and Amputechture are weak albums.
