    You could always go for the whole enchilada
    they're all good, so you can't really go wrong buying all of them...

    Is This It. Definitely.

    The other two are good, but this one is friggin awesome (IMO).

    EDIT: Yeah like Jamal said, I'd buy them all eventually. My 2nd fav is Room On Fire, and then First Impressions of Earth.
    And before his first step... He's off again...

    I'd say Room on Fire is probably the worst of the three, it's still decent though. First Impressions of Earth contains what I consider their best songs, although it isn't as solid all the way through as Is This It.
    I guess Is This It is the best place to start.

    You should definetly aproach them in a chronological way ... Is This It? ... Room On Fire ... Impressions

    Is This It

    shouldn't this be in Other Music? Jeez, the mods are so selective with what the crack down on here :p

    What about the Hives?

    I heard them once a few years ago and thought they were pretty cool.

    The Hives aren't that great. They had a couple of good songs, but the albums are pretty much the exact same all the way through. I wouldn't bother myself too much about them. I'd say buy Veni Vidi Vicious and leave it at that.

    none of them. I keep buying them and then I listen to them and I'm like why the hell did I buy this?
