bands that peaked on a single album and never came close to their peak ever again

>>129978894
idk if this is true for strokes, only if you're a tourist hype-train goer
the guitar work was too sparse on this one, and overall instrumentals were too simple. on other albums the instrumentals were more complex and they also sounded really good. also, the lyrics are juvenile on the first, later they are more mature and more thoughtful
so no, it doesn't hold true
>>
>>129978894
The curse of the perfect debut
>>
>>129978940
Stop coping, Julian. Everyone and their mom agrees that Is This It is the best Strokes album and that is correct. The rest of the strokes discography is mid at best.
>>
>>129978894
The New Abnormal is their best album

Interpol
Doves
Yuck
Samsara Blues Experiment
The Field

>>129980881
>Doves
Last Broadcast was really good too
And their last 2 albums were underrated
>>
>>129980893
Yeah, they've never made a bad album. They just peaked at their debut imo.
>>
>>129978894
marquee moon
guess the strokes were trying to replicate the "only one good album" part too
>>
>>129980931
True they are like Coldplay if they never sold out
>>
>>
>>129980951
Or as I'd like to call them, Oasis if they were a good band.
Only half kidding, it's just fun to shit on Oasis.
>>
>>129980967
I like the fact that they originally made house music and changed their style when their studio got burnt down
>>
>>129980797
>>129980881
Antics, OLTA and El Pintor were good

the OP was albums that never came close to their peak thougheverbeit
turn on the bright lights is one of the best albums ever made, the rest were ok. not even close.

Their follow up album literally has the exact same level of songwriting quality and sounds identical. What the fuck are you talking about

Nightmare was fine i guess but still.
>>
>>129981544
Sleeping with ghosts and black market music were better, thoever
>>
>>129981645
505 is their best song
>>
>>129978894
This album is a classic, But it is not even their best in their discography and is boring, Angles is more creatives than it, The New Abnormal is a masterpiece, And how about the masterpiece Room on Fire, The better "Is This It"

You're just a fucking retard.
>>
>>129980881
>>129980797
El Pintor, Their Third Album and Interpolantics are fucking great, Especially the Third Album.

You guys are fucking tourists like the OP
>>129981645
You're a literal fucking retard if you think that garbage is even that decent in their discography, Humbug is literally their best and TBHc

Casablancas seething itt. Your solo album and the voidz are pure dogshit bro
>>
>>129980999
Absolutely.

>>129981952
Everything he ever did post room on fire is trash honestly
>>
>>129981645
disagree with this one, favorite worst nightmare, sorry favourite, was really solid. the rest i don't care about but in the theme of the thread being "peaked on a single album and never came close to their peak ever again" i think favorite worst nightmare was good enough
>>
>>129981952
Posts like this are embarrassing. I don't disagree but you sound like such a fucking faggot

They topped it literally in the next album.
Its everything else right after that's shit.

They didn't start falling off until the self-titled.

>>129980881
>Doves
All their albums are good.
>>
His next four albums had their moments, but none of the rest of his discography measures up as a complete experience (Computers & Blues comes the closest imo). He definitely peaked here.
>>
>>129980881
Interpol has a solid discography, granted the self titled isn't great but otherwise they have an almost perfect discography
>>
>>129978894
sleigh bells, no millenial band comes close
>>
>>129983605
The last 2 albums were extremely uninspired
>>
>>129981440
Most Lamentable tragedy is better
self titled is very good and not far off too
>>
>>129981882
You still need to listen to more music, Only so you can get the gist of it.

You have a basic music taste.
>>
>>129978894
Factually, you're wrong. Room on Fire and The New Abnormal are just as good as the debut.
>>
>>129978894
Nah, Room on Fire is almost as good, the highs of FIoE are higher, and Angles doesn't quite reach those same highs of ITI? but is at least consistently very good.

>>129980999
Yes. Absolutely.

>>129981645
Another good choice.
>>
>>129983605
The last 2 albums are pure dogwater.
