Get Behind Me Satan - the only consistent one - also laidback and experimental

Yeah, and I like them both but they aren't as good as the other two, in my opinion...

I hear what you're saying. The south side of WBC can get rough, and De Stijl is a hit or miss album. But who am I to judge, I think GBMS is an underrated masterpiece.

Get Behind me Satan wasn't bad, but not particularly standout. Love 'Little Ghost' though. That's a solid song.

I used to play piano fairly seriously (though I don't anymore) and I think thats an appeal. Denial Twist and Doorbell are monsters and I love any song that uses piano like a rock instrument. Don't get me wrong, Blue Orchid, Ugly as I seem, and The Nurse are not my cup of tea, but Forever for her, ain't that lonely yet, and Instinct Blues are some of my favorite WS tracks.

Get Behind Me Satan is my least favorite, to be honest. In general, I feel oppositely about the piano in a rock setting...
