that's a hard question

chronologically may work, since you'll follow their changes/evolution

if you want a general idea, this new live album is a good one also

AM is also a good option

so:

debut, AM or their new live album

I just listened to the first 2 songs from Whatever People Say.....
Does it get weirder?

not sure what you consider "weird"

spin the whole thing

and AM after it

These guys don't have a bad record. But their debut and AM (as bada said) are perfect records. Those are definitely the two to start with.

I would say start with Humbug.

Don't start with the Royal Albert Hall show as I'm finding it a tad lackluster.

Let’s do this. I saw them live opening for the Black Keys at MSG nearly a decade ago, but don’t remember any of it.

I was at that MSG show up in the cheap seats. Memories are a little hazy as well for me, but I remember enjoying their set. They played R U Mine? which was one of my favorite songs that year.

Such a great, strange record.

I really have no idea what we will get here.

I know. It's so exciting.

I'd like it to be more rawk than the last one but I'll take whatever I can get.

Tix about to go on sale for an outdoor show here next January. Convince me I should go.

I listened to AM once or twice. Wasn't really into it.

I’ve seen them 5 times. They played this when they opened for The Black Keys. It was worth the price of admission, and I for sure left about 8 songs into the BK set.
