It really isn't though. It seems as if the vast majority of EYKIW ranks SOI ahead of it although, who knows, maybe the honeymoon phase for that album has ended. I'm not about to run another series of polls to find out.
I haven't noticed this, but I don't frequent EYKIW regularly and I haven't visited the sub-forum in several years, so maybe I'm off the mark.
Passengers is underrated but the reasons for underrating it are idiotic and don't have all that much to do with music. Essentially, U2 sycophants are freed from their obligation to kiss ass because of the name technicality, allowing them to file the album as some failed Eno project. If it had been released as a U2 album, it would be as well regarded around here as Pop.
Totally agreed, although it definitely can't go pound-for-pound for Pop imo.
