This is a FIFA menu distilled and flattened into an album. A time capsule of indie Brit-pop sensibilities that seeped into every corner of British culture in the mid 2000s. This album is a flashbang for any millenial born in the 90s, you'll know over half of these songs from just how prevalent and unavoidable this was as a movement. Not my taste but I cannot deny the cultural relevance of Franz Ferdinand and their contemporaries.

Timeless seminal rock album, Dewey Finn and his School of Rock using Immigrant Song to teach the fundamentals of the genre was no accident. I think it can get pretty one note after a while with the length of the tracks and lack of variety in the riffs, but it's still an enjoyable rock rollercoaster that is enjoyable as it is educational.

What is there to say really, an all-timer of an album. Not a single miss, musical perfection from top to bottom.
