87. They did some good stuff
Their debut is actually a very good album in my opinion. (And this is even considering the fact that I've always disliked the song "Semi-Charmed Life".) It had some other singles that were quite good ("Losing a Whole Year", "Thanks a Lot", "How's It Going to be?"), but also some very interesting, surprisingly deep tracks towards the end ("The Background", "Motorcycle Drive By", "God of Wine") and some other very catchy could've-been-singles like "Good for You" and "London."

Their second album Blue had its moments, like "Anything", "Wounded", and "Darkness" but it didn't get to me the same as the debut. It didn't seem as personal; it was similar to the debut except with a harder, darker sound and worse lyrics.

Their third album was a disappointment to me, though, 'cause I waited on it to come out forever and only liked a couple songs. It's kind of interesting, with the majority of the songs about the lead singer Stephan Jenkins dating and breaking up with Charlize Theron, but the songs rarely stick in your head which is something 3EB had always done in the past, at least to me.
