Right now 100% for S/T and I'd like to hope that it'll stay that way. Because anything else is wrong, lol.

I went with In Love And Death cause that's the album that got me interested in them, although I really enjoy all their albums, even Artwork

Self titled definitely but I can stand any of them except artwork.
As a matter of fact if anyone chooses artwork please explain yourself. I'm not being critical or a dick, I'm just curious why anyone would possibly think that.

Truth.
easiest poll in a while. s/t
By far their self-titled. I stopped liking them after that record.

The self-titled. No contest.

Should be very very one sided, Artwork is one of my top 5 least favorite cds. Just listening to it makes me cringe.

Cut Up Angels, All That I've Got, and I Caught Fire are enough for me to at least understand why someone would prefer In Love and Death.
And I guess Lies for the Liars had Earthquake.
Just my opinion though.

I always thought ATIG and CUA were two of the weaker tracks on In Love and Death. I definitely agree with ICF though, I love that, along with Sound Effects & Overdramatics and It's Hard To Say.
I love The Ripper and Wake The Dead on LFTL.

I love The Ripper and Wake The Dead on LFTL.
I just loved the way that Cut Up Angels had this really fun, very poppy feel to it, but if you noticed the lyrics (which weren't subtle at all) it was a completely different song. I thought the lyrics were pretty strong too. And All That I've Got is just a classic for me, it was the song I always hoped would come on the radio back in the day. I Caught Fire is amazing though, it would be hard to dislike it.
Sound Effects was one of my favorite too because it was definitely their hardest song and as they showed us on their self titled, they're a band who knows their way around a scream. It's Hard To Say use to be one of my favorites but I suppose repeated listens have made it fall to the wayside for me.
I actually thoroughly enjoyed LFTL, although I know a lot of people disagree with me on that matter.
But Artwork. For me I couldn't find a song that was even remotely listenable, and I'm not really sure why. I have friends that have said "if any other band put it out it would have been good" but I disagree with that. Something just didn't click.

I didn't think Artwork was that bad, just unremarkable. It was very bleh for me, the only song I really liked was Empty With You. I didn't hate any of the other songs, I just never really enjoyed them either, it was quite disappointing for me after loving everything else they'd done.

Empty With You was really good live. That was about the extent of my enjoyment for the album.

I like In Love and Death, but I would never consider voting for it over their self-titled debut. And the notion of anyone voting for their last two albums makes me sick.

According to Alternative Press their new album does but they are so wrong it's almost retarded. This band, based on their live show, could have fit in with like Rise Against on a bill. They were almost early emoish. But they are good. The Almost and Drive A would fit a lot better

Not even close, it's one of the weakest on ILAD imo.

Artwork is their best album to date. It's cohesive and self referential. The others had good songs, but felt like mere collections of those songs. Artwork plays out best as a whole. That's why I favor it.

Likewise, but Shallow Believer is a b-sides record with songs that pretty much span their entire pre-Artwork career.
Also, S/T and Lies For the Liars. Easily. The production on Lies was fantastic.
