MPP should be the first listen, it's their highest acclaimed, most popular, highest charting...what more do you need? I know SJ's better and w/e but let's keep it consistent like with all the other artists.

I just cannot get past the production on MPP. Every time I turn it on I only get to Summertime Clothes before I don't want to listen to it any longer. I just wish MPP would have had really clean production and let the hooks breathe instead of drowning them.

Definitely. The melodies are great but the overall texture of the album is sickening. Though I do find Brothersport to be infintely better-produced than any of the other tracks.

The sound of it can be grating, but it rarely if ever bores me. Can't say the same for SJ.

Also, listening to MPP while driving in torrential rain is unbeatable.

Summertime Clothes I think is the only song that would have been better with different production. The production is perfect for Bluish.

Was I the only one that was sincerely disappointed with the title changes for some of the songs in MPP? I mean, "Bearhug" would've been song title of the century.

Had My Girls stayed on the record exactly like it was live, House would've been a pretty boss title for the song as well. I actually prefer the old live version ever so slightly to the studio one, but I'm really glad to have both.
