I can never explain why this album is so impactful to me. I’ve heard it on good days and bad days and it hits hard either way. A lot of its sound just feels so iconic. The first time I heard Is This It? I was told it sounded like it was being sung to someone through an apartment buzzer. That is fitting, for whatever reason, and it strips down an otherwise bold, varied, and chaotic album. It’s absolutely one of my all time favorites.
