I voted Great Cold Distance, due to that it's the only full album I've heard. I've also heard a few tracks from Viva Emptiness.
Best Katatonia album

Explain how the old stuff is better. Although I'll never agree...explain your side. I think people automatically dismiss new material from bands solely on it being popular or easily accessable. If so, that's sad. This band is only going to get better.

I love the difference between this thread and the exact same thread on the Kata forum. tr00ness vs. fanboyism

I voted LFDGD on that poll because I was really into that album at that time.

Seriously, this "YOU JUST CAN'T ADMIT THAT <insert band> IS GOOD BECAUSE IT'S POPULAR!" thing is getting tiring. From what I know Life Sucks is a fan of doomdeath not depressive pop. So it is kinda natural to like their deathdoom albums the most don't you think? It has nothing to do with how popular the band is/has become, why can't people get over the fact that some people will stop liking a band because they change style to something that they don't like not because they want to be tr00.

How is BMD generic doom/death? Who exactly were they copying back in 1996?
I've tried getting into their depressive pop music, but can't. Discouraged Ones was the best out of the post-BMD material.

Some dickhead here use to say how Brave Murder Day sounded like and was a rip of off Paradise Lost 'shades of god', Paradise Lost has a big influence on Katatonia and at the sametime these albums are nothing alike at all and BMD is one of the most unique and original metal albums period.

What? You mean the sound they started on discouraged ones? Then continued on Tonight's Decision and perfected it on LFDGD. Made it more rockish on VE and became boring on TGCD?
Okay, they 'perfected' the sound on TGCD. LFDGD sounds a tad different from TGCD
LFDGD is awesome though. VE had some more metal thrown into it than the previous records.

i had to choose Tonight's Decision. Since it's the least one i listened to so it's still damn interesting. it's like it's a new katatonia release to me.

and then you die
Nah. I wish they would have stuck with the doom death sound of the first two albums. Dance of December Souls is my favorite Katatonia album.
Tonight's Decision is starting to move up very quick and is a neat album. Right Into The Bliss and No Good Can Come Of This are stand out Katatonia songs in general. I did not know until looking in the case that Dan Swanö plays drums on the album.
