I was listening to side 2 of Jane's Addiction's Ritual de lo Habitual earlier today and between that and listening to Descendents' I Don't Want to Grow Up the other day, it occurred to me that for as long as I've loved each of those albums now (30/31 years now; whoa), but especially in more recent years, I've preferred side 2. I think it's also each band's best work. Can you all think of other instances like that?
I just know some wiseacre is gonna put My War on there and that's fine, but it's not one of my picks. I like side 2 just fine, but I've always thought side 1 was better tbh.
