The Strokes’ Is This It has been named album of the decade.

The American rockers’ 2001 debut LP topped a list compiled by British music magazine NME made up of votes from record producers, label bosses and musicians, including members of Radiohead and Arctic Monkeys who both rank highly.

NME Editor Krissi Murison said: “This is the definitive word on the greatest albums of the ‘00s - as voted for by everyone who helped make music brilliant this decade.”

Troubled rocker Pete Doherty saw three of his albums make the list, with his former band The Libertines coming in second place with their debut effort Up The Bracket. The group’s second, and final, self-titled release was placed at #24, while his other band Babyshambles saw their debut record Down In Albion achieve 35th place.

Veteran rockers Primal Scream came in third place with Xtrmntr, while Arctic Monkeys’ debut album Whatever People Say I am, That’s What I’m Not was fourth and Fever To Tell by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs came fifth. The Maps hitmakers were one of six acts to have two LPs make the list, with Show Your Bones placed at #32.

In addition to Yeah Yeah Yeahs and The Libertines, Radiohead, The White Stripes, Arcade Fire and The Streets all saw two records make it into the Top 50.

The best represented year of the decade was 2002, with a total of eight albums released in the year placed in the list.
