10	Z	My Morning Jacket	2005	Rock	For my money the best MMJ album. The epic vocal performance of "Wordless Chorus" alone probably stands at the top of things to love about the band and this album, but the entire thing works so well. The MVP for me is "Dondante," an absolutely searing slow burn of a track that encapsulates so many great things about their live show at the time: Jim James just going ham on the vocals, top tier blues rock jamming, incredible energy, all in support of a brilliantly-written track. Throw in songs like "It Beats 4 U," "Gideon," "Off the Record", "Anytime," and "Lay Low"... come on. A classic. Reviewed on Tuesday, January 17th, 2023, 10:56am.

10	*It Still Moves*	My Morning Jacket	2003	Rock	Such a classic. This is maybe the best encapsulation of everything My Morning Jacket is good at: lovely ballads like "Golden" and "I Will Sing You Songs," balls-to-the-wall rock tracks like "One Big Holiday" and "Run Thru," the gorgeous stuff in between like "Dancefloors" and "Mahgeetah," and then just whatever sort of transcendent glory "Steam Engine" is. Pound for pound this might be their best record, though on most days I do prefer Z. I could see a case for It Still Moves being more universally beloved just for how easy it is to listen to and enjoy, while Z can be somewhat challenging at times, or as challenging as MMJ can get. This is one of those albums that can fit so many occasions, which I think can go a long way. Reviewed on Wednesday, January 18th, 2023, 1:36pm.

9	*Evil Urges*	My Morning Jacket	2008	Rock	Probably the last great My Morning Jacket record, and the one that came out at the height of their power, at least in my mind and my little circle of music nerd buddies. It's super playful and fun, which is a nice tendency of theirs, but it's also very musically practiced and tight. Songs like the "Touch Me I'm Going To Scream" duo, "I'm Amazed," "Evil Urges," and "Thank You Too!" all play so nicely on a summer day, which is really what this album evokes most for me, but also work in the context in which I'm listening today: a dreary morning at work. The flow of Evil Urges works really well too, as the heavy rockers like "Aluminum Park" and "Highly Suspicious" (a ridiculous, yet awesome song) are nestled right up against the ballads like "Smokin from Shootin" and "Sec Walkin" in a way that keeps you on your toes but feels very natural.
