Big fan, as you can probably tell from my username. (Also, awesome points for anyone who recognizes my avatar)
If I were to rank their albums (including Come On Pilgrim) it would go something like:
1. Doolittle
2. Surfer Rosa
3. Come On Pilgrim
4. Trompe le Monde
5. Bossanova
Explanation for the ranking: Doolittle and Surfer Rosa are my definite favourites, but the reason I put Doolittle the highest, is partly because I think it works better as a whole and that my average enjoyment of the tracks are a bit higher, I guess. I'm not altogether sure which one I like best out of Come On Pilgrim and Trompe le Monde, so I basically went with my gut feeling, but they could easily be put the other way around. Bossanova is decidedly my least favourite since it has a few tracks that I don't care for all too much, and none of the other albums has any.
Favourite songs overall (in no particular order):
Monkey Gone to Heaven
Velouria
Where Is My Mind?
River Euphrates (An underrated song in their catalogue in my opinion)
Ed Is Dead
I Bleed
No. 13 Baby
Letter to Memphis
Gigantic
Caribou
