First track's great, past that meh. That Killing Joke album is excellent. I tend to forget about it. I don't know if I've ever listened to Hosannas. Could never get into that Built to Spill album.

I think Waiter, You Vultures might make my top 100 if I give it a couple more months to fully sink in. However, "blase enthusiasm"? Is that like military intelligence? Also, it's hard to estimate the impact that Is This It would have today because so much of indie rock was changed because of it. i don't think it is possible to evaluate how a game changing album would be received at a later time because we don't know how music would have progressed in the subsequent years. If the Beatles just started now, not in the 60s, what would the music scene look like now? Would they be as influential? I doubt it. Great albums are almost always a confluence of the actual album and the state of music when the album was released. Hooray for the Wrens and Portugal. The Man!
