This is their debut album, which debuted at number one in the UK charts and swept all major UK music awards.
The first album released in 2006. It contains 13 songs, including two singles, "I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor," which reached number one on the UK singles chart despite being the first single, and "When the Sun Goes Down," which also reached number one on the UK singles chart.
In 2005, a demo recording was released by a fan, and it quickly went viral, leading to a label contract. The album sold 1.38 million copies in the UK alone, sending out a "shock like no other since Oasis" from the UK to the rest of the world. It went on to sell 2.31 million copies worldwide.
