A big yes to ASIWYFA. For me, it would probably be one of Search:Party:Animal or Beautifuluniversemasterchampion, but all the songs on Gangs are equally incredible, in their own ways.

I probably prefer their debut, such a great album and it's high up my decade charts, every track is immense, all 3 albums are really good though. _________________
