I have a large playlist filled with Shinedown songs but sometimes I skip some of them so I wanted to write out the 10 that as of now are unskippable.
Misfits
Imposter
For My Sake
What you Wanted
It all adds Up
Killing Fields
Machine Gun
Dizzy
Bear with me
Diamond Eyes
I think its a huge variety. by this time next week this list could be entirely different, which is why I love Shinedown
Overall warning, my cousin introduced me to Shinedown the day Attention Attention released so in my defense I’ve never gotten into the first two albums, so they will be 7 and 8 respectively but I do plan on giving them a real listen at some point.
8- Us and Them- Fav song- I dare You
Happens to be the only song I listen to at this point
7- Leave a whisper- Fav Songs- 45, Simple man
Again only songs I know
6- Attention Attention- Fav Songs- Monsters, Brilliant, Darkside
Was my fav album for the longest time but I’ve come to appreciate the others a lot more
5- Threat to Survival- Fav songs- Black Cadillac, how did you love, thick as thieves, Misfits
Great album but the peaks of Planet zero give it a higher ranking imo
4- planet zero- Fav- Hope, Daylight, dysfunctional you, what you wanted
I hate the interludes, but I love the messaging even though at some points they can be corny
3- Ei8ht- Fav- killing fields, imposter, dizzy
This very well could become my favorite album at some point
2- Sound of Madness- Fav- Call Me, Diamond Eyes, SoM
Just the pinnacle of good music, no notes
1- Amaryllis- Fav- For my sake, unity, miracle, EVERYTHING
Just a great listen, beautiful lyrics, just peak
At the Bottom 8/10 I like the slowness, good draw in- Fav line: Kill the lights and cast the first stone
Or leave me alone 'cause I'm not the problem
Dance, Kid, Dance 9.8/10 one of the better songs, they were wise to have released it early on- Fav line: My educations wearing off my generations getting soft
BDTD 9/10 Sounds like something straight out of threat to survival- Fav line: Lightning in a bottle never strikes the same
Three Six Five 10/10 I can listen to this at any time- Fav line: Where will we be twelve moths from now?
Young again 9.7/10 clearly I like the softer rock stuff Fav line: and there'd always be a castle to defend
Dizzy 9.9/10 I think my fav from the full album release feels like country pop adjacent and its stuck with me- Fav line: Im higher than hallelujah
Imposter 8.9/10 something is familiar about this, maybe I am an imposter- Fav Line: Just like the great gatsby whats it all worth
Machine gun 8.5 to me kind of forgettable but maybe I need some more listens chorus is extremely catchy- Fav Line: might be a renaissance could be a revolution
Outlaw 9.7/10 Just a good song Fav line: Chorus
Safe and Sound 9.8/10 More TTS and SoM feeling- FAv line: F around and find out and keep running your mouth
Searchlight 9.8/10 Makes me feel similar to young again, nostalgia for something Ive never had, I only 21- Fav Line: I know you ahd a plan buyt thats not who I am
Bear with me 8.7 Reminds me of something, doesnt feel shinedown but its still fine
Deep end 8.8/10 Fav line- We might sink we might swim
Killing fields 10/10 Savior of the album, takes a dip imo but this song gets me right back into it (FYI a dip imo is still good just not great) Fav line: the entire damn Chorus
BttL 8.6 needs more listens Favline: Like a panic attack that never slows down
Wide open 8/10 Im sure its good but when the chorus starts all i hear is white womans instagram by bo burnham so it takes me out
SGTYA 8.2/10 Forgettable
The Pilot 9.5/10 Great conclusion, wraps everything up. Fav line: Maybe god will speak to me like an old friend in a dream
Overall: Ei8ht-9.4/10 top 4 album for me and I'm incredibly grateful its all music and not interludes
