Probably Chuck. That album is just pure awesome from start to finish. Tough album to top.

Re: SBM vs Chuck
I think SBM's heavier moments sound heavier than Chuck in terms of guitar, they sound a lot more low-tuned and distorted especially in songs like "Reason to Believe" and "Back Where I Belong"; I think those songs are in drop d or drop c, giving it a darker feel. Songs in Chuck were mostly in Eâ™ tuning. But overall as a whole album Chuck is heavier due to it being more cohesive. Pop-rock songs like "Time for you to go" and "Baby you don't wanna know" ruin the flow and just don't fit the album IMO. "What am I to say" sounds like a pop-ballad from Underclass Hero and doesn't fit either. "Crash" has a dark feel and I have no problem with that. But SBM doesn't have much of a metal influence, there is very little double bass drumming and isn't very technical in terms of the guitar. Chuck had it's moments ("The Bitter End", "88") but a lot of the songs were simple also. But yeah, SBM has heavier guitar than Chuck but doesn't really have much technicality. Chuck did have it's lighter songs ("Some-say", "Pieces", "There's no Solution"), but it still remains more cohesive than SBM.
SBM has a-lot more originality though and is more creative. Chuck sounded a bit like other bands at times.

Re: SBM vs Chuck
I wouldn't call neither TNS or Pieces a "light song". Both of those songs have really depressing lyrics.

TFYTG and BYDWK don't ruin the flow for me... They provide relief from all the somber moments

Re: SBM vs Chuck
Baby You Don't Wanna Know is indeed a great tune, love the chorus. Time For You To Go is one of two songs on the album I could care less about. The verses are just painfully crappy sounding, but I do give it a listen from time to time and it's got a nice little solo in it if I can recall. Argh, which one is better? I would say Murder as the song-writing and production is on another level. It really is probably the better album, but I can't bring myself to voting against Chuck. Me and that album just have this connection, it's the disk that made me pick up a guitar.

They can't even be compared. SBM is trash, Chuck is gold.

Re: SBM vs Chuck
Peter is too young to understand how fresh and new songwriting is on SBM.
