Melt is probably his best top to bottom.

Melt along with Gabriel's other early albums are all streaming on Spotify now.

I kind of feel like I had a weird premonition with this thread.

Digging in the Dirt is fucking sublime, especially the chorus when it gets all ethereal and he's just begging for support. A real heartbreaker.

Finally listened to 2002's Up last night, it's awesome. Some similarities between this and The Downward Spiral, Bowie's Outside, and others of that ilk. The arrangements are super proggy, along the lines of his first solo album, but with much more modern sounds. Awesome headphone album.

I'm also gonna add that Up is the closest album to Melt, in that it's heavy on dark industrial sounds.

yeah that's great. This live solo version is also awesome (though I'll always prefer the bombast of the album version):

Melt > Security > So is a ridiculous run of albums.

I need to explore more Gabriel. All I know is that I love Tony Levin's work on the tracks I've heard.

I haven’t even listened to the albums on Spotify since I broke this news. Trag, should I throw on Melt?
