Used to hear loads of people say that they liked Tool ā€œbut didn’t listen to themā€. Shy Tool fans?

Can we nominate Lateralus to find out @JohnM

7.4 for Is This It. About what I was expecting actually

@anon19035908 can you choose a track that isn’t Hard To Explain please?

This league table is definitely upside down btw.

New York City Cops please.

Thanks!

I don’t know about Definitely Maybe being at #1 but my two favourite albums on the list are at 12 and 13 so I agree with you to some extent

I gave it a 2 and I’d do it again if I had to. :stuck_out_tongue:

I’ll wait for Lateralus to come up before exacting my revenge

genuinely a bit surprised by that result, thought it would at least get over the 8 mark

Inspired by this thread I’ve been rinsing this after years having not heard it. Forgotten how great it is. A real zeitgeist album, which has banger after banger.

Surprised it rated so low on here though. Guess you’re all too busy listening to your Nina Simone albums.

Much like Definitely Maybe, an album for the contemporary youth mainly. Reckon this is objectively better and not sure if, unlike DM, it will continue to impress new kids. But it means it doesn’t get as much love from those of us too old for it at the time.

I loved this set. Effortlessly cool. Still listen to it often and its aged a lot better than other great albums of that era. Saw them at All Points East in 2019 and they only played songs from the first 3 albums. Bloody marvellous

It’s the first Strokes song I heard and it stopped me in my tracks. Very few songs have done that in my life. It sounded totally alien at the time, I was sold straight after the ā€˜pause’ in the song. Was 17 at the time and my jeans did suddenly become skinnier!
