The Strokes- Is This It?
Mostly white album cover containing, largely in the right-hand side, a woman's nude right bottom and hip, with a black leather-gloved hand resting on it. It is captioned "THE STROKES IS THIS IT" in the top left-hand corner.

LP | CD

"''Is This It'' bows down before all the trademarks of pre-1977 rock: off-kilter guitar solos, half-buried vocals (à la ''Louie, Louie''), attitude-heavy slurring (by singer Julian Casablancas), primitive tom-tom rhythms (shades of the Velvets' Moe Tucker), and the raw, muddy sonics of garage-band 45s." -EW
