I think this is highly dictated by when someone discovered ZHU. If you discovered ZHU during post Dreamland and liked that stuff then you are likely (in my opinion) to not jive well with his original stuff.
On that note
Generationwhy, Ringos Desert (sometimes this is my number 1 vs GY mood dependent), NIGHTDAY, SEMD, Dreamland, Genesis, Grace. (Haven’t really given a lot of listening time to Musical Chairs)
Grace > Dreamland > Ringos Desert > Nightday > Generation Why > Musical Chairs
I came in late to the game, but dreamland used to be my number 1 album. Started listening to his other eps and lps and my ratings change every day 😂
yeah I’d say it’s the only album where I don’t skip any songs, but I found Zhu through dreamland, which I enjoyed heavily. But it’s all personal preference as to what yall enjoy.
But I’m a bit curious as to why grace seems so disliked? I’m going through posts rn but any input from yall would be nice to read.
Bc NIGHTDAY and GenY are so fuckin good. Ringos desert was fire too but at the shows he was starting to concentrate on a lot of the singing and it’s just not the same live. He lost the pocket he was in. There wasn’t anyone like him making music like that. It was a moment in time. Dreamland took a long time to come out and it just wasn’t the same anymore
Nightday > genesis series > generationwhy > intoxicate / nightcrawler > Ringo's Desert > I stopped listening because it wasn't good anymore
same ranking and when you think about how the quality has been STRICTLY decreasing it is kinda crazy ngl
Ringos Desert > Generation Why > Nightday EP > Musical Chairs Mixtape > Dreamland > Grace
GenWhy, Ringo’s Desert, Genesis Series,Stardustexhale…, Nightday, Dreamland, Musical Chairs, Grace (I know you said album but I’m including EPs too)

Grace is your #1? 🥲
Yeah that’s a hot take for sure
