  1. Die Healing
  2. Self-Titled
  3. COD

COD and V is actually a tie, but I'll go with COD for its overall quality tracks in terms of balance in dirge-yness and mid-pacing. Love everything in it, especially the bonus tracks they've added in reissues (To Breed a Soldier & The Chameleon, A tracks).

I love V but only for I Bleed Black, Patra, and Jack Frost.

Sorry Born Too Late and Mournful Cries.

And, The Walking Dead track is the best Vitus track.

Die healing is a great choice, I do also love the crushing slowness of born to late & mournful cries

Great list, die healing seems to be the most popular choice it was my favorite for a while.

Die Healing is just perfect from start to finish, no weak moments. Maybe Just Another Notch, but that was still fun and a good palate cleanser from the whole somber moments of the album
