I can see why you would say that if Hot Rock was your introduction to SK but if you zoom out it wasn't entirely a regression so much as Hot Rock was simply an outlier. Indeed if you were yo take it out of the discography then All Hands really does feel like a progression and indeed follows that trend through One Beat, the Woods, and No Cities to Love. Perhaps because Hot Rock is so fundamentally different and unique from any other SK record and even side project releases that is why i put it as Number One
