Why do people think this album is so great?
Super catchy composition and tight performance. It's really concise and lacks filler. Their attitude was cool at the time as well.

It's decent. Not too remarkable but it's alright.
Pitchfork/NME/Rolling Stone told them to think that.

Op confirmed faggot
It's really comfy and it was the peak of their career (Before Julian became a washed up cuck)
I like it because it's got the old school rock n roll attitude to it but it doesn't sound like they were ripping off any particular classic rock act. It's a nice revisit of rock music and is really fun to listen to overall
It bored me almost as much as Weezer

Hard to Explain best song.

It doesn't really have soul though. It's pretty straightforward stuff and is basically a small step above pop music.

Their attitude is cool as hell now too desuuuu

Being a smug trust fundie doesn't really sound positive to me.

From Last Night on is soulful af. Check Room On Fire, much better record.

That doesn't matter. Rock music is about confidence.

because it's objectively perfect.

Growing up fed on a silver spoon without any financial worries and having your career handed to you on a silver fucking platter is not confidence. This is the exact "privilege" that the loony leftists talk about.

How was his career handed to him?

Have you not read the history of the band? Some of them met at a boarding school somewhere in Europe for christsake. A great deal of affluence could buy you an agent and connections in the music industry much easily. Granted, I understand that they started practicing early in life and possibly worked hard for their musicmanship and that their parental figures might not have approved their career choices but you can't tell me they had it that rough.
I do however like their music but I'm not buying into the whole "Rock and roll attitude" spiel
