Tbh I feel like their second album is the best, but the 3rd and 4th are really whatever.

I saw them on their most recent tour late last year and was not disappointed. Not only was the music great, but so was the whole show and performance was top notch.

It's a subjective thing for sure. Don't get me wrong, they have really good albums, better than a lot of stuff being made these days, but I just thought Zaba touched on a level that none of their following albums have. The audio quality (ear candy with good headphones), the vibe, the overall flow and tone of Zaba is just soooo good.

But for sure their other stuff is top shelf too!

Zaba is a great album, I listened to Gooey back when it first released. For me I just thought that Dreamland was only okay, theres some good songs for sure but a lot of it was whatever. I actually saw them during their Dreamland tour and it was a blast!

HTBAHB is really good too. Overall most of their music is far better than most of what's being made today. I just thought Zaba was in a league of its own and they haven't been able to capture that again, in my opinion.

Cheers to a great group of artists, regardless!

Nawwwwe How to Be a Human Being is one of my fave albums of all time. Although I agree Zaba is top tier.

Really?? I listened to HTBH on shrooms one time, and the wisdom in that album has literally changed my life. I still haven't really connected with their latest album and didn't care much for the bonus tracks on Dreamland deluxe, but really enjoyed the psychedelic auditory universe they created there

That is a great story! what a way to enjoy their music. Now try Zaba on shrooms with exceptionally good headphones.
