The unassailable peak for me, however, was ‘All In White.’ The darkest track from the album, Young even admitted on Twitter that he felt it was the “outlier”. ‘Wetsuit’, initially written about a friend of Young’s who had drowned, never loses the elegant charm I first heard in it, while ‘Family Friend/Somebody Else’s Child’ provides a touchingly heartfelt ending - aided inadvertently by the vocal polyps Young was suffering with at the time. The high points for me, however, are when the band delve into their softer side. Each line about a regretful ex finds a resonance in the conscious of anyone who happens to be listening, all played out against a backing of pure unadulterated release. ‘If You Wanna’ remains the most well-known track in the ten years since, and for good reason. ‘Wreckin’ Bar (Ra Ra Ra)’ set the stall out early, borrowing from the emphatic brevity of Descendant’s 'Milo Goes To College'. When the album dropped, fans were rewarded with a collection of 12 songs steeped in rock history with an undeniable commercial appeal. The wider music press was equally as enamoured, thankful that a band made up of equal parts unhinged rowdiness and reverb-soaked nostalgia had come along to give indie a fresh direction. We were so impressed we even made the bold claim that their rise “will launch a 100 wannabes.” After 25 raucous minutes, their set was over and their reputation sealed. On the back of just one demo version of ‘If You Wanna’, they packed out the 300-capacity venue with a combination of eager fans and industry names. Their debut London show at The Flowerpot in Kentish Town was the biggest testament to the hype that was building around them. And while like everybody else my tastes have shifted in those ten years, the excitement I feel when listening to 'What Did You Expect From The Vaccines?' remains. I was one of those teens, slowly beginning to work my way through the vast history of musical culture. Initial singles, ‘Wreckin’ Bar (Ra Ra Ra)’, ‘Post Break Up Sex’ and ‘If You Wanna’ grabbed a generation of left-of-centre teens by the scruff of their necks, opening them up to a sound that was both simple but sincere. No other band before them had managed to find that balance, creating music that was lithe and refreshingly direct, while also deeply rooted in a rich musical heritage. The key reason behind this was the assured cross-over between their rough-hewn frenetic sound and their commercially compatible songwriting. But no other guitar band had arrived on the scene with as much anticipation as Justin Young and co. Arcade Fire’s seminal third album, 'The Suburbs', had just won the Grammy for Album of the Year, while The Maccabees and Bombay Bicycle Club were already two and three albums into their careers, respectively. The groundwork for this quiet indie revolution had already begun in the months previous to The Vaccines’ debut release. From the likes of Peace, to alt-J, to Wolf Alice, all can trace their early success to the market appetite for indie that The Vaccines had launched. But by the time 2011 ended, British music was beginning to bask once more in a golden period of indie-pop. British music had just gotten over the mid-Noughties zeitgeist that was Arctic Monkeys and the charts were awash with the drab R&B/dance crossovers of JLS and The Wanted. 'What Did You Expect From The Vaccines?' dropped amid a furore of hype the likes of which has seldom been attached to an indie band since.
