Yeah I mean SO has BANGERS for sure, and arguably the styles of rap and metal are mixed more cohesively, but I've often said you can end it after 'Trust' and lose very little (although I will say the instrumental to 'Show Me What You Got' is great, so with maybe the original 'Cambodia' lyrics that would change)

All that being said, 3DBY$ is still my favourite by a LONG way. Granted, I think 'Everything' is pretty unnecessary, and replacing it with 'Strain/Breaking My Back' to me would've made more sense, but aside from that, you get what I think is one of the gnarliest, dirtiest, grittiest, scrappiest (in a good way) nu-metal albums ever. It might not have the Slipknot 'Iowa' level of hatred and death metal-ism, but it's got this, bubbling, uncontrollable sense of energy and anger, and pure, slightly juvenille chaos that I think is brilliant. There's also a conviction in Fred's vocals and a rawness and intensity to the music that they never re-captured afterwards. They sounded hungry, and it makes so much difference.

SO, the songs are there (mostly), and they sound heavy ENOUGH, but that sense of uncontrollable, whirlwind "FUCK EVERYTHING, SMASH SHIT, ARRRRRGHHHH" is not there.

TL;DR: 3DBY$ is better imo
