My ranking of all My Dying Bride's studio albums. Turn Loose The Swans and Songs Of Darkness, Words Of Light are the two best albums for me. I basically like every album a lot, except for For Lies I Sire. It's not bad obviously, but it was a disappointment for me, hence why it's below 34.788%... Complete. The last album being a very experimental/strange album, but it still contains a few great songs. I included ratings as well as the best (in my opinion of course) songs of each album.

1. My Dying Bride - Turn Loose The Swans

2. My Dying Bride - Songs Of Darkness, Words Of Light

3. My Dying Bride - The Angel And The Dark River

4. My Dying Bride - The Dreadful Hours
