Definitely Maybe is well deserving of its plaudits. I mean, it's just a spectacular debut album and one of three Oasis albums in a row that were near perfect (and the only brilliant ones, at that).
THB on the other hand is one of those albums that will impact a small number of people deeply. The reason for that is it's very niche due to the writing style and the subject matter. I'm not a massive fan of it myself, it's just not the type of Manics stuff I like all that much and I wasn't a Manics fan when it came out so I don't have the same level of affinity towards it that fans that grew up with it did. Give me Lifeblood and Journal For Plague Lovers any day.
