I had a friend back in the 90s who had a theory that your favorite TMBG album is the one you were listening to when you get it. When it goes from being weird but catchy, to true fandom.
I sort of oscillate between Lincoln, Pink Album, and a random one. I guess it kind of holds, since those were my first non-Flood albums. (Flood and No! were a part of my childhood, and I liked a lot of Flood, but with Lincoln and Pink Album, that was the first time I dove deep.)

For me it holds up: Lincoln.
I suppose, because it’s Flood for me, but I truly love both Factory Showroom and Mink Car.
And I don’t know I can rate one above the other.
Honestly, Flood is my pick for their best album but, also, I just adore Apollo 18 for the quirky songwriting.
Like some TV commercials, several of the interludes on Apollo 18 are just… not good.
I kind of like both those albums. I felt like several of the demos for Mink Car were better than album, though.
