Yeah. Revisited both today and that did not provide clarity.


So I'm voting for Avantdale Bowling Club. One of the most balanced syntheses of jazz and rap ever. I like the records about equally, and Double Negative is more consistent, but Avantdale Bowling Club has higher highs and more replay value.

The Low album still sounds very Low but it's so subdued...
I fairly liked the jazzy atmospere of ABC at the start of the album but the album just goes on and on without getting more interesting so I finally go for Low?

The Low album started off great, but I think it relied too much on a few key elements and in the end I was a bit bored. Nevertheless, it's still pretty good. The ABC album has more ideas I think, and the jazzy atmosphere is quite successful, even if I find it hard to get into at first. So my vote goes to Avantdale Bowling Club.

The opposite has happened 🙁

All's fair though.
