Definitely agree. I get why people like the other albums more, but I love PB. Though it's a shame that the record label didn't give them enough time to complete it the way that they wanted to. On the tour they played the songs with more expanded arrangements that (presumably) are more like what they would have put together given the time they needed, and it's really a much better listen all around. I'd recommend to any Gorillaz fan that they listen to the free unofficial live album that a fansite made a while ago, it's fantastic stuff.

Now back to Blur: Miss America is freaking awesome. Anyone agree?

it's pretty good, though not my fave

i just got Think Tank, it's not bad, much better than s/t or 13, anyway

Aw, I think 13 is great, albeit overlong.

I'd go, if I didn't have to travel an unreasonable distance to see them.

Like overseas.

I haven't listened to Think Tank. I've listened to every other album though. Honestly, I don't think one of their albums is great the whole way through. They're all hit-or-miss. Having said that, my personal favorite is 13. Though Beetlebum from their self-titled album is one of the best pop songs in recent years (if you consider that recent). I'd go with a greatest hits.
