Being the huge Muse stan that I am, of course I love this album...but there are a couple of songs that haven't really sat well with me ("Big Freeze", particularly). Still, I'd definitely put this in a solid fourth, albums-wise...and if I ever come around to the two or three songs I'm iffy on, it could challenge Absolution.

I'd rank it above TR and Showbiz,
maybe near OoS, but Absolution and BHAR will remain untouched for me.
The only songs I'm not crazy about are pretty much everything after "Explorers" (sorry Chris!

), but there's none that I genuinely dislike, and the best songs make up for the less-than-spectacular.
My favorites are "Supremacy" (too bad this can't be the theme song for the new James Bond film), "Panic Station" (NEEDS to be the next single) and "Animals" (anyone else get a Radiohead/AFI vibe from it?).
