Oddly enough, I remember people saying almost *exactly* the same thing
when Middle of Nowhere came out. Eg, "In Sides was a masterpiece in
comparison, and Orbital now have a new worst album..." etc.
Ah well, I guess it just goes to show we all have different tastes. I
thought the "Brown" album was a pile of shit myself, yet most people
go orgasmic over it. For the record, not that it's worth much, but
here's how I'd rank the Orbital albums:
1) Snivilisation
2) In Sides
3) Green
4) Middle of Nowhere
5) The Altogether
6) Brown
Although if I could rank "live shows" somewhere, then they'd
definitely take the top spot. They're something else entirely.
