They were a leading group of the early-2000s indie rock revival.

It was followed by ''Room on Fire'' (2003) and ''First Impressions of Earth'' (2005), both of which sold well but failed to match ''Is This It'' in critical success. Following a five-year hiatus, they released ''Angles'' (2011) to a generally positive reception, and ''Comedown Machine'' (2013) to lukewarm critical reception, both with dwindling sales.
