An extremely difficult album to rank, the great songs are all equally great. One of the few albums I found better each time I listen it. The first three songs can be switched.

Great:
01 | Mysterons
02 | Sour Times
11 | Glory Box
07 | Numb
08 | Roads

Very good:
10 | Biscuit
03 | Strangers
05 | Wandering Star

Good:
06 | It's a Fire
09 | Pedestal
04 | It Could Be Sweet
