A Box for Black Paul

not sure how much its changed over the years but yeah the acclaimedmusic.net aggregator has it as like his 12th most acclaimed album. (still #1427th most acclaimed album overall though, very high)

Not sure how popular that album actually is, but i would be inclined to agree with you considering how many times i heard "The Mercy Seat" being played in bars and local restaurants around Athens

quite possibly

harborcoat maybe my #1 REM song ever though

Nightswimming #2?

John Paul Jones the konducta

somewhere in top 5 for sure

The vibe he arranged on Drive

Makes you feel like Robert Johnson waiting to sell your soul to the devil

That's surprising tbh. I would expect it to be maybe 5th or 6th based on what you said, but 12th? Damn. Like what ELEVEN Cave albums have more acclaim? Im sure the 3 we've already mentioned, along with Let Love In for sure. But what are the other 7?

If any of his newest releases are above it then i gotta question the acclaim tbh

real ones voted for sign o the times above purple rain

Any other Kate Bush albums make the list?

Inctedibly apt description

Play in the Sunshine

Swordfishtrombones moving up steadily is nice to see

He gets positive reviews thrown at him for his recent work like it's candy tbh

Sign O The Times above Purple Rain

your funeral my trial
tender prey
good son
let love in
murder ballads
boatmans call
abbatoir blues
dig lazarus dig (huh)
push the sky away
skeleton tree
ghosteen

a lot of them make sense but also keep in mind that due to the nature of an aggregator like that, its natural for an artist like nick to continually receive more attention and acclaim as time goes on. im not surprised at all but some stuff like Murder Ballads (his most popular although im not a fan), Let Love In (also one of most popular), and the 2010s ones which i honestly think are super great and did receive more critical attention than his early stuff (deservedly so). and ofc Tender Prey which has Mercy Seat

Housequake

The Cross

Prince back to back

If I Was Your Girlfriend

@Elric

as I thought tbh

I'm fine with it
