Favorite and least favorite Believer song from each album
I’m only doing the first 3. It’s hard because these are consistent albums.
Extraction from Mortality:
Favorite: Not Even One
Least favorite: Stress, easily
Sanity Obscure:
Favorite: Idols of Ignorance (my favorite Believer song)
Least favorite: I’ll go with Like a Song, because it doesn’t fit that well, but I still like it. (The U2 original is better, though).
Dimensions:
Favorite: Trilogy of Knowledge, Part I: The Lie or No Apology (guess they changed their minds on this, sadly…)
Least favorite: Not counting the Trilogy into, I’ll go with Gone, but I still like it.

Extraction
Favorite: Hard to say, but I guess Shadow of Death
Least: Desolation of Sodom is the only weak track here IMO
Sanity
Favorite: Idols of Ignorance for sure
Least: Dies Irae even more for sure
Dimensions
Favorite: Trilogy of Knowledge Movement III -- the riff at the start could go on forever and I'd never get tired of that sweet sound
Least: Honestly I haven't listened to any of the non orchestra stuff in maybe decades

Re: Favorite and least favorite Believer song from each album
I have two clear favorites on the first two:
- EfM: Shadows Of Death
- SO: Nonpoint
I like everything else on those.
As for Dimensions, it‘s a bit of a blur in my mind and didn‘t get near as many spins as the first two. I‘ll have to get back to it soon.

Re: Favorite and least favorite Believer song from each album
These are tough.
Can tell you the least anyway on the first two
Extractrations: Stress
Sanity: Like a song, for three reasons
1. The song sucks
2. It doesn't fit on the album and kills an otherwise perfect thrash epic.
3. I Hate, I mean, HATE, U2!
Like all of Dimensions.
Gabriel: That random filler stuff at the end.
Transhuman: can't remember. Good album.

Oh no... looks like I might've hurt a U2 fan's feelings....

I used to listen to the first 2 albums a lot in the 90s. Their guitar tones were always awesome. Loved that crunch!
Extraction From Mortality
Favorite: Shadow Of Death
Least: Stress
Sanity Obscure
Favorite: Idols Of Ignorance
Least: Like A Song
Dimensions
Favorite: Trilogy Of Knowledge (all parts)
Least: (not sure, haven't heard this one in quite a while)
I'm not too familiar with the more recent stuff.

Re: Favorite and least favorite Believer song from each album
I don’t get the hate for Stress and Like A Song. They are clearly « fun » tracks, that’s why they are at the end of the record and you can listen to the album and just stop at the end of the « serious » tracks if you must. I see them like those hidden tracks that were the fancy of the day, with the pure intention to showcase to the world that you were not a one dimensional act but capable of doing other styles of music and/or that you had some kind of humour despite playing hard music and touching serious topics for the rest of the album.
That aside, I really like those tracks. Stress was probably my first introduction into ska and reggae, genres I hadn’t even known they existed. Like A Song is beautiful and to this day I love it for this alone, never heard the original because I never cared for U2.

I don’t hate Like a Song at all. Hence, “Least Favorite,” not “Song I hate.”

Dust, I picked up a "dislike" on this too, and didn't mention Like a Song or U2, so I'm assuming that somebody wasn't paying attention and thought that it was a "super-like!" button or something.
I've always loved Stress, and could have easily taken it as my favorite from Extraction. Again, I could have taken any of about 6 as my favorite from so great an album, but it would be one of them. Maybe the first blast beats I ever heard? And I agree that it's just a fun song.

From now on when someone dislikes one of my posts, I'm going to go ahead and assume it's a "super-like!"Grindboy wrote:Dust, I picked up a "dislike" on this too, and didn't mention Like a Song or U2, so I'm assuming that somebody wasn't paying attention and thought that it was a "super-like!" button or something.

Well... that's a dang shame... nothing pleases me more than getting under the skin of a U2 fan...Grindboy wrote:Dust, I picked up a "dislike" on this too, and didn't mention Like a Song or U2, so I'm assuming that somebody wasn't paying attention and thought that it was a "super-like!" button or something.

Stress is cool though, kinda like a thrash version of The Clash
