Arctic Monkeys.

skrillex has been disappointing for around five years now the debut was epic and everything since is not worth your time, he got worse over the years

But they went on to release two albums just as good as their debut and even angles is up there.

it seems a lot of indie bands made insuperable debut albums,look at interpol and arcade fire

arcade fire have put out 3 near perfect albums and one dud IMO (neon bible is a but shit).

Funeral is Arcade Fire's worst album tho

>>68595023
I really like all their albums,to me it's
Funeral>Neon Bible>The Suburbs>Reflektor
But the last it's still a 8/10 imo

>>68595091
why do you think so?

>>68595188
Funeral > reflektor = the suburbs > neon bible.

>>68595188
okay I actually hate fighting about it bc it just completely doesn't do anything for me. I see the appeal but everything they did on it, I think they did much better on Neon Bible and/or The Suburbs. Maybe it'll hit me at some point.

>>68594977
All the early noughties indie bands never lived up to their potential.

>>68594811
only if you think of it that way. everything they released afterwards has been at least good. casablancas is still a brilliant songwriter

>>68594811
I would say Cheap Trick because their debut is their best but In Color, Heaven Tonight, All Shook Up, One on One, Next Position Please, (and to a lesser extent) Dream Police are just different flavors of their brand of dark lyric power pop. Nothing beats their debut and At Budokan though.

Not a band, but Mike Oldfield - Tubular Bells
He certainly didn't ruin his career or anything afterwards, but TB is really something else from the work he put out afterwards.
