Third has 'Out Bloody Rageous' and 'Moon in June', no contest.

Yet another chalk and cheese comparison. Quite different music.
Third: avant early 70's British jazz fusion;
Rock Bottom: (post life changing event) avant pop/rock.
Might as well be more specific and compare Hibou Anemone & Bear with I'm A Believer (or even Shipbuilding) - songs for and from very different times and experiences.

Just tied it.
I think Third is an excellent album (my favorite is Facelift BTW) but Rock bottom is very very high on my personal most loved albums list. actualy I think that only Red and First utterance (and maybe H to He...) are in the same level.

Rock Bottom
Third is uniteresting to the point of mindnumbing boredom

I agree. I never liked it. Rock Bottom on the other hand is superb. |

Both are desert-island albums for me. Too hard to pick a clear winner, so I chose "both"!

Moon in June is a masterpiece! Both albums are amazing, Third is harder to get into than Rock Bottom though. |

I have a feeling Rock Bottom would be winning this if all had heard both. For the popularity of Third on this site I'd not be surprised at all if someone had voted Third and not heard Rock Bottom. The other way around however, is very unlikely.
That being said i might be leaning towards Third, but I can't decide at all. Edited by himtroy - September 09 2010 at 16:33 |

I think that anyone who did not hear both albums should not be voting here.

I do really like both. It would depend on my mood which I prefer so I won't split them.

Third. Listening to Facelift for the first time was mind-blowing.
And Moon in June, probably in my top 5 favorite songs of all time. Edited by progvortex - September 17 2010 at 00:08 |
