Is This It 'best album of 2000s'
NME magazine has voted The Strokes' debut as the best album of the decade.
Is This It tops list of best recent albums The Strokes' debut album has been named the best album of the past ten years.

A panel of musicians, writers, producers and record label chief ranked 2001's Is This It as the top record of the last decade in a poll for NME magazine.

Up The Bracket, The Libertines' 2002 debut, came in third, while Primal Scream's XTRMNTR, Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not by Arctic Monkeys and Yeah Yeah Yeahs' Fever To Tell took fourth, fifth and sixth places respectively.

The next five spots were taken by Stories From the City, Stories From the Sea by PJ Harvey, Arcade Fire's Funeral, Turn On The Bright Lights from Interpol, Original Pirate Material by The Streets and Radiohead's In Rainbows.

Other bands managing to make into the lists' top 50 include At The Drive-In, Queens Of The Stone Age, The White Stripes, Klaxons and Bloc Party.

Last week, a poll of Gigwise readers voted The Handsome Beasts' 04 album as having the worst record cover of the 2000s, followed by William Hung's 2004 release Hung for the Holidays and The Redemption by Brooke Hogan.
