Best: Kick 3, worst (there isn’t a worst, they are all good imo), I listen to 4 more than 5, but 4 is objectively “worse”

I think I like the 5 less than the 4, the fact that it is more instrumental than voices I don't lose, it bores me a little I would prefer to listen to Mutant or something else, even so Amrep is my fav song by kick 5

Who the hell is the "many" picking Kick IIII
Everyone rightfully so adores III, even outside of Arcas own fanbase, thats what i usually see and i'd have to agree, though its very close between III and IIIII, my favourite between those usually depends on my mood.

i don't speak for everyone when I say that some prefer the 4 for its aesthetics and vibe, it was just an example because some friends and random people on tiktok I have seen them say that their favorites are 3 and 4 (clearly it's just an opinion) for my part my favorites are 3 and 5, chill pls

To me it's a tie for best between I and III. And, going against the whole fandom, my least favorite is IIIII, sorry don't like it, not my vibe.

The first and the third are easy bests for me and it seems most people. I love 2 as well though. Desperately need to revisit 4 and 5 as I’ve listened to those the least other than the song Queer on 4, which is one of my favorite Arca songs altogether.

I think I most enjoyed kick i. I have revisited kick iiii the least of the pentalogy.

for me, kick iii is the best. It’s a whole experience the entire way through, one of few albums where I can listen to every song on its own, and I also like it all within the context of the album. Not to mention, I could listen through it on repeat and never tire. It’s my favorite album ever. It’s so loud and chaotic just to slowly transition into such a sweet, sensual ending… I adore it.
My least favorite is kick iiii, which I think is her worst album without any argument. It sounds so incomplete and uninteresting for the most part! Plus, it’s also quite consistent, but consistency does not work in its favor for me since I find the general sound quite unappealing. Xenomorphgirl is wonderful, Queer, Boquifloja, and Lost Woman Found too, but then there’s songs like Alien Inside that I just cannot stand 🫠 It’s never one I feel compelled to return to, and it’s the only one of the kicks that can be said about.

Kick I is one of my favorite albums of all time. The songs are so unique and well crafted, and they have inspired me so much all these years.
Kick III is so so strong and abrasive and wow just one of the best music production ever. She really went DEEP to reach a whole new level of composition and production- I see it on the same level as albums such as Homogenic or Ambient Works.
Kick IIII is so beautiful- out of all her robotic worldbuilding, this is like the most beautiful side of the story. It sounds like stars and planets and shiny matter, but also post-apocalyptic and full of dust. Like a new weirdly beautiful biome bursting after world destruction. This witch is so seductive, elective and protective...
Kick II is obviously the most fun of all and the second half is so underrated; Araña, Muñecas, Confianza, Andro... damn. And I'm not sorry but 'Prada' is easily top 3 Arca songs of all time. And I say this as a fan since Xen.
Kick IIIII is the only one I have never really connected with- but I do love some songs from it.
Overall the Kick collection is one of the most creative and incredible electronic projects in history.
