When this came out a couple of years ago everyone (i.e. the music press) raved about it, and the band were heralded as being the next big thing.
So, I was quite excited when I got it out of the library yesterday to listen to it.

That excitement lasted until I actually heard the CD.
Terrible, repititive, derivative rubbish. It's just noise, no melody, harmonies or great guitar solos - and no stand out tracks either.
My reaction on hearing it was: Is This It?
Presumably not the reaction the band were hoping for when they chose that rather apt title?
