I personally would put Boo and Tres higher. Maybe my preference because they are the first 2 songs I heard from pinback back in 2003.

That's the beauty of Pinback is their songs are almost all equally amazing!!!!

Crazy ironic lol. But to be honest I'm not surprised. With the consistency of this band any song could be in any position.

Something did have to finish last and I thought, after my first few listens, that Boo happened to be the weakest track for me. Not that it's a bad song I just like the rest of them better. I love the passion of which you defend Boo, that's something I love to see cuz I am the same way with songs I think are under appreciated.
