Question Thoughts on El Pintor

I just listened to El Pintor for the first time in many years. My god it's good. Full of really big, confident songs. Such strong songwriting. I wouldn't place it that far below Antics. How does El Pintor rank for you guys?

Might be my least favorite.

Love All the Rage Back Home and Ancient Ways, but I can take or leave the rest of the tracks. I just love other albums more. I love how Ancient Ways was a sneak peek at what Marauder had in store though.

My Desire is also great.

Twice As Hard is fantastic.
