'100 Broken Windows' is a fantastic album, and one that is almost equal with 'Hope Is Important' as my favorite Idlewild record. It has lots of uncluttered space, a gnarled raw quality, and an intense catchiness to it. The album features so many classic tunes like 'Little Discourage' and 'Idea Track'. Even the softer songs like 'Quiet Crown' have never been bested by the band's later works. This album has served me well over the years, and remains one of the most played and loved LP's in my record collection.
