  • I'd say

    Dig Me Out or Call The Doctor.

    Listen to Jumpers from The Woods as well, because it's pretty much the best song ever written.

      or All Hands on the Bad One. Combat Rock is on an album called One Beat, which is probably the S-K album I listen to least.

      The colonol's not wrong about Jumpers, either...

  • Dig Me Out/One Beat

    Others will doubtless disagree.

    Oh, if anyone posts something along the lines of 'Hey, you should check out Kenickie too!', ignore them.

    • I concur

      on both points

      One Beat is all sorts of brilliant, titular track especially

  • Depends of what you're searching.

    They were really noisy and messy at the start but became mellower and more melodic ( even if they still rocked !!! ).
    I think my favourite is "call the doctor" but all of them album are ace ( even if the Woods was a bit disappointing ).

  • Start with

    Dig Me Out. Or maybe All Hands on the Bad One.

    And though it's not one to start off with get The Woods at some point as it's fantastic.

    I miss Sleater-Kinney :(

  • Pretty much any of their albums from 'Dig me out' onwards

    If I were to choose one it would probably be 'all hands on the bad one'. Although all of them are at least very good.

    Good calls above on 'Jumpers' and 'One Beat' as well. Two of the best songs ever written.

  • I love One Beat

    and pretty much everything else I've heard. For some reason though I don't listen to any of the other albums as much as One Beat though

  • One beat

    is the most poppy, though the hot rock is my favourite.

    Fucking love Sleater-Kinney!!

    • One Beat, call the Doctor & the Woods are the best three

      One more hour is my favourite track..

      • Argghhh

        Get Up is my favourite. To be fair they did very few 'bad' songs.

    • Sure All Hands On The Bad One...

      is the most poppy? That is full of big stupid pop songs. One Beat is a bit rocksier.

      • About the same

        But always regarded one beat more pop. They are only a few years apart.

  • The Woods is my favourite of theirs

    Mindblowingly awesome

  • CALL THE DOCTOR

    they're basically all good though.
