Interpol's debut. Liked it quite a bit, didn't want more.

Yeah, I definitely felt like an album's worth of that shtick was just about all I needed.

Chrissie Hynde, I wanna apologize. The Pretenders' debut is amazing, and I don't know why I've decided that the handful of decent post-debut singles are all of your latter-day material I need to hear.

I consider Interpol's 2nd album considerably better than their first tho

I'm not apologizing to bands whose output was clearly best on singles - those comps are some of my favorite things!

Sorry Richard James. Selected Ambient Works 85-92 changed my life like few other records but nothing you released subsequently has held my attention.

Ladybug Transistor: Sorry, I thought your self titled album was pretty good, but never got around to picking up any of your other records.

I finally checked out Street Hassle a couple years ago and it knocked me out.

sorry Joe Ely, I've loved Honky Tonk Masquerade for a long time & you've lots of other records & something about the Clash (actually sorry the Clash too, dig London Calling but that's as far as I got, it's a pretty epic album & enough to sink into for years).

also sorry Doug Sahm, I love your Atlantic greatest hits but it's pretty sprawling & works for me & I kinda fear the rest of what is no doubt a massive & chaotic discography
