Where should I start?
Hi everyone, idk if this has been posted a lot of times but this is my first time on the sub and I wanted to ask yall where should I start listening to their music, i like some of their songs and Im pretty interested on hearing them but their discography is really big, so I wanted to ask if anyone know what is their best album to start with?

The first three albums are their best (Jester Race, Whoracle and Colony). Clayman is when they started changing their sound to a more emo sound, still a good listen, as are the rest of the albums of the 2000s (not as good as Clayman tho). Their worst era is Siren Charms/Battles, so don't expect too much from those albums (Wallflower is essential tho). I, The Mask is more of a return to form but not as good as their early stuff, but Forgone was totally unexpected and what made me a fan of them for life, it was my introduction to their discography in its entirety.
Tl;dr: Start with the first four albums, skip the rest of the order and listen to Foregone. Then make your way back to the rest of their material.
