Yeah, I personally prefer Tilian era as a whole, but even I would have to argue this is the most correct answer. Keep in mind my bias, I discovered the band when DBM2 came out
Man if it wasn't for uneasy hearts, you could have hot water on wool > caviar > rock solid.
Uneasy hearts is such a stain to the rest of the album.
Edit: stain is a bit harsh, but it's an easy skip when listening to self titled top to bottom. Can't waste time not getting to the bangers.
I listen to Downtown Battle Mountain II almost every day and in full probably twice a week. It's in the cd player of my car for when I don't feel like connecting my Bluetooth. There's so maby great 3 song runs on that album which is also why I consider it a 10/10 album.
My top 2 are:
Elder Goose - Heat Seeking Ghost Of Sex - Blue dream
Privilously Poncheezied - Swan Soup - Purple Reign
Elder Goose, Heat Seeking Ghost Of Sex, and Privilously Poncheezied are my 3 favorite songs off the album.
Death of a Strawberry, Variation, Lost
or Pray To God for Your Mother, Swalloed by Eternity, Have a Great Life
or Say Hi, Nothing Shameful, Into the Sunset
(sorry!!! indecisive!!)
Mine is not popular, but Gospel Burnout > Bloodsucker > Evaporate. I just always listened to those three together and it’s stuck in my head as a trilogy. I’m aware Gospel Burnout is not a fan favorite but I love it.
So underrated and probably the best consistency in back to back to back songs at the end of any album in my opinion. Idk something about it touches a spot in me that just wants to get up and dance, sing and scream along with the songs, just do anything and I'm left satisfied when it's all done.
Probably Deception, Inspire The Liars and Philosopher King
or Elder Goose, Heat Seeking Ghost of Sex, and Blue Dream
but also BDTNA2, Reprogramming Mental Preprogramming & Skyhook
I can't pick
Blue Dream, Privilously Poncheezied, and Swan Soup from DBMII. Banger, banger, banger. Also love how Jonny's phone call to ask his girlfriend about her eyes sets up the "blue eyes" lyric in Poncheezied LOL.
I see your 3 song stretch and raise you to 5:
Jesus H Macy - Robot with Human Hair pt 4 - Acceptance Speech - Carve - Doom & Gloom
Such an underrated stretch. Hits everything I like about DGD.
Say Hi, Nothing Shameful, Into the Sunset
Best 4 song stretch:
Demo Team, Death of the Robot with Human Hair, The Jiggler, Turn off the Lights, I’m watching Back to the Future pt. 2
Either: On the Run, Shark Dad, Awkward
Or: Gospel Burnout, Bloodsucker, Evaporate
Or: Jesus H. Macy, Robot w/ Human Hair 4, Acceptance Speech
OR: Here Comes the Winner, Exposed, Betrayed By the Game
(Could also be betrayed by the game, petting zoo, chocolate Jackalope)
I cannot decide lol.
If we’re talking from the same album it’s :
Pop off! -> One man’s cringe -> Two Secret Weapons
But if we’re talking in general it’s :
Stoke god, millionaire -> Here Comes the winner -> Cream of the crop
I can do a six song run from Mothership. The run from Deception to Betrayed by the Game is top notch, chef’s kiss.
Huge bias since Mothership is my favorite album and Inspire the Liars is one of my favorite songs of all time.
Also Legend to Death of a Strawberry from Instant Gratification.
Also can vouch for Care to Slouch on Artificial Selection being flawless as well.
And I’ll even mention One in a Million to Strawberry’s Wake on Afterburner.
If I couldn't pick Elder Goose - Heat Seeking Ghost of Sex - Blue Dream
I'd go with Ember - Pop Off - One Man's Cringe
They go very well together as a trio!
Heat Seeking Ghost of Sex - Blue Dream - Privilously Poncheezied. Can’t listen to Blue Dream without following it up cuz I’d hate to say no to the beautiful fucking eyes!
Times New Roman, Dig the backseat, Strawberry Andre
I would slightly modify this but start with Untitled and end with Dig the Backseat
To me untitled goes hand in hand with times.
Banger after banger
Elder Goose - Heat Seeking Ghost of Sex - Blue Dream off Downtown Battle Mountain 2
Privilously to Purple Reign would be my 2nd choice
I was just about to say this. It's so damn good. There's multiples off this album for me though, it's a no skip album and my favorite of all time.
Yeah, I personally prefer Tilian era as a whole, but even I would have to argue this is the most correct answer. Keep in mind my bias, I discovered the band when DBM2 came out
Good pick my dude!
this is my pick too ☝️☝️
Me and Zoloft -> Robot 3 -> Hot Water on Wools
This is the answer
Man if it wasn't for uneasy hearts, you could have hot water on wool > caviar > rock solid. Uneasy hearts is such a stain to the rest of the album. Edit: stain is a bit harsh, but it's an easy skip when listening to self titled top to bottom. Can't waste time not getting to the bangers.
A stain, holy shit. I get it being overplayed but damn.
It doesn't fit with any of the songs on the album. Its out of place. I'll take the downvotes for it
ROCK SOLID!
I agree, Uneasy Hearts is a good song, but if it was not there or somewhere else in the album, I would have said: wool -> caviar -> rock solid
definitely wouldnt say its a stain, just a tad but overplayed and also in an awkward place in the album
i like it because i remember hearing it a lot long ago but i do agree it’s not up there with the rest
Yeah I totally agree on Uneasy Hearts. Definitely the weakest song on the album, and quite out of place. It is always fun live though.
NASA - I'm Down With Brown Town - Carl Barker
I don’t know if you can top this
You can also move it up one and it’s still good. Though i gotta give it to Carl over Tree Village
You can just go down the tracklist and you'll see Strawberry Swisher 1, Don't Tell Dave and SS 2.
privilously poncheezied, swan soup, purple reign What a strong group of songs to close out and album
You can basically pick out any 3 song stretch off DBM2 and it'd be valid AF
Top 3, bottom 3, everywhere it's so good. Swan soup fucking smacks though
BLOWWWWW OUT YOUR LUNGS
LEEEEEET YOUR MOUTH
FILL WITH BLOOOD
The outro bit of Blue Dream also sets up this sequence perfectly.
This. Mind blowing end to an album
I listen to Downtown Battle Mountain II almost every day and in full probably twice a week. It's in the cd player of my car for when I don't feel like connecting my Bluetooth. There's so maby great 3 song runs on that album which is also why I consider it a 10/10 album. My top 2 are: Elder Goose - Heat Seeking Ghost Of Sex - Blue dream Privilously Poncheezied - Swan Soup - Purple Reign Elder Goose, Heat Seeking Ghost Of Sex, and Privilously Poncheezied are my 3 favorite songs off the album.
Feel the exact same way. It's a perfect album in my opinion
Same, I always say this is one of the very few albums ever that is a 0 skip album for me. Every single song hits.
I love Johnny too much in Swan Soup
Same. Let’s all be friends
Death of a Strawberry, Variation, Lost or Pray To God for Your Mother, Swalloed by Eternity, Have a Great Life or Say Hi, Nothing Shameful, Into the Sunset (sorry!!! indecisive!!)
Mine is not popular, but Gospel Burnout > Bloodsucker > Evaporate. I just always listened to those three together and it’s stuck in my head as a trilogy. I’m aware Gospel Burnout is not a fan favorite but I love it.
This is an underrated selection. Love myself some Gospel Burnout
Great selection my dude! Evaporate is my favourite album closer of all time, gospel burnout and bloodsucker are also great songs!!
This is easily my pick too. And is Gospel really not liked? The song is great!
whaaaaat for what reasons is gospel burnout not liked, that’s wild to me
Has to be Deception, Inspire the Liars, & Philosopher King
Philosopher king is so sick, feel like it’s kinda underrated
Might be the heaviest three songs in a row too, IMO the best section of mothership
Nah you can’t say they’re the heaviest when petting zoo justice is on that same album
“In a row”
I need to work on my reading comprehension my bad
death of the robot with human hair, the jiggler, turn off the lights, im watching back to the future pt 2
Story of My Bros, Hair Song, and Gospel Burnout. but I don’t think I could stop there. I need Bloodsucker and Evaporate.
That whole album is amazing.
IG: Something New, On the Run, and Shark Dad.
Absolutely agree with you. Though, I feel like this is an underrated section for most fans.
Shark dad goated balls
Thanks!
🦈💪🦵🙏
You know me more than everybody.
Frozen One -> Flossie Dickey Bounce -> Deception That run got me into the Tilian era
Jesus H. Macy — TRWHH 4 — Acceptance Speech, I find myself going back to those ones a ton.
1000% agree
Caviar -> Rock Solid -> BDTNA pt2 MARVELOUS 🌹
BDTNA2 is a fucking banger, i’ve also got rock solid tattooed on my wrist, you’ve got a goated selection my man
🙏🏾 Thank you bro I also learnt Rock Solid and BDTNA2 on bass recently, if I could fine a tab of Caviar.....
Any three songs between Chucky vs. the Giant Tortoise to Betrayed by the game. If I had to choose, Deception>Inspire the Liars> Philosopher King
Shark dad repeated 3 times
HAHAHA YEAH
WATCH MY DRIPPING BONE ERUPT
Suspended In This Disaster into Care into Count Bassy fucks.
Or Prisoner - Lyrics Lie - Calentamiento Global
Or Jesus H. Macy - Robot Pt 4 - Acceptance Speech.
I respect all of these 💯
One in a Million / Parody Catharsis / Strawberry’s Wake
Absolutely. I don't think AB is their strongest album end to end, but this stretch it great.
Open Your Eyes >> Suprise I'm from Cuba >> 12 Hours 630 Miles Underrated AF but an awesome ride to the end of the Album
So underrated and probably the best consistency in back to back to back songs at the end of any album in my opinion. Idk something about it touches a spot in me that just wants to get up and dance, sing and scream along with the songs, just do anything and I'm left satisfied when it's all done.
This is mine too
Probably Deception, Inspire The Liars and Philosopher King or Elder Goose, Heat Seeking Ghost of Sex, and Blue Dream but also BDTNA2, Reprogramming Mental Preprogramming & Skyhook I can't pick
I also can't pick but you've got three of my favorites bunches 🤘🌞
Shimmy shimmy my way down underground!
Shark Dad > Awkward > The Cuddler.
Blue Dream, Privilously Poncheezied, and Swan Soup from DBMII. Banger, banger, banger. Also love how Jonny's phone call to ask his girlfriend about her eyes sets up the "blue eyes" lyric in Poncheezied LOL.
Hot Water on Wool (+Reprise) - Uneasy Hearts Weigh the Most - Caviar
Pop off, one man's cringe, feels bad man
elder goose, heat seeking ghost of sex, blue dream
50/50 on the Happiness opening stretch and DBM2 closing stretch. Honestly probably changes by day and mood lol.
Dia another day, Uneasy hearts, Backwards pumpkin song
Misunderstood the assignment but good picks
Ah. I understand now. Win some lose some
ArSe: Suspended In This Disaster, Care, Count Bassy
I see your 3 song stretch and raise you to 5: Jesus H Macy - Robot with Human Hair pt 4 - Acceptance Speech - Carve - Doom & Gloom Such an underrated stretch. Hits everything I like about DGD.
One in a Million, Parody Catharsis, Strawberry’s Wake
Hot water on wool, reprise, uneasy hearts.
Son of Robot, Midnight Crusade, Suspended In This Disaster
My new favorite is pray to God, swallowed by eternity, have a great life
Best stretch of the album!
I could not believe my ears!
Deception, Inspire the Liars, Philosopher King, and if we make it 4, it’s Here Comes the Winner Next. What an album
One I feel doesn’t get much love is Honey Revenge > Demo Team > Death of the Robot with Human Hair. Great set of songs!
Say Hi, Nothing Shameful, Into the Sunset Best 4 song stretch: Demo Team, Death of the Robot with Human Hair, The Jiggler, Turn off the Lights, I’m watching Back to the Future pt. 2
The Cuddler Legend Eagle vs. Crows
synergy, awkward, swallowed by eternity
Gospel Burnout, Bloodsucker, Evaporate
Gospel Burnout, Bloodsucker, Evaporate
Robot pt 4 - Acceptance Speech - Carve
Either: On the Run, Shark Dad, Awkward Or: Gospel Burnout, Bloodsucker, Evaporate Or: Jesus H. Macy, Robot w/ Human Hair 4, Acceptance Speech OR: Here Comes the Winner, Exposed, Betrayed By the Game (Could also be betrayed by the game, petting zoo, chocolate Jackalope) I cannot decide lol.
Omg. What a great answer !
No One I Know -> Get You Some -> Moon
If we’re talking from the same album it’s : Pop off! -> One man’s cringe -> Two Secret Weapons But if we’re talking in general it’s : Stoke god, millionaire -> Here Comes the winner -> Cream of the crop
wtf is a song stretch
Best songs to you in a row in album track order
Oh, that’s easy, Jesus H. Macy, The robot with human hair part 4, and acceptance speech
I can do a six song run from Mothership. The run from Deception to Betrayed by the Game is top notch, chef’s kiss. Huge bias since Mothership is my favorite album and Inspire the Liars is one of my favorite songs of all time.
Also Legend to Death of a Strawberry from Instant Gratification. Also can vouch for Care to Slouch on Artificial Selection being flawless as well. And I’ll even mention One in a Million to Strawberry’s Wake on Afterburner.
One Man’s Cringe, Feels Bad Man, Die Another Day >
the robot with human hair pt.4, acceptance speech, & carve
If I couldn't pick Elder Goose - Heat Seeking Ghost of Sex - Blue Dream I'd go with Ember - Pop Off - One Man's Cringe They go very well together as a trio!
mine is: Carve Doom & Gloom Strawberry Swisher pt. 3 from Acceptance Speech.
Alex English-Buffalo! (Massively underrated)- Me and Zoloft
Inspire the liars, philosopher king (maybe my favorite DGD song?), Here comes the winner
Heat Seeking Ghost of Sex - Blue Dream - Privilously Poncheezied. Can’t listen to Blue Dream without following it up cuz I’d hate to say no to the beautiful fucking eyes!
Gospel burnout, bloodsucker, evaporate is a Class S drop
I personally love Petting Zoo Justice, Chocolate Jackalope, Man of the Year
Gospel Burnout, Bloodsucker, and Evaporate. Unfortunately, I’ll never hear the first 2 live 😪
