Several outlets praised their "back to basics" approach, with "Daily Mirror" calling them "the greatest band since The Sex Pistols." In 2002, "Q" magazine listed the White Stripes as one of "50 Bands to See Before You Die". After their first appearance on network TV (a live set on "The Late Late Show With Craig Kilborn"), Joe Hagan of the "New York Times" declared, "They have made rock rock again by returning to its origins as a simple, primitive sound full of unfettered zeal." "White Blood Cells" peaked at number 61 on the "Billboard" 200, reaching Gold record status by selling over 500,000 albums. It reached number 55 in the United Kingdom, being bolstered in both countries by the single "Fell in Love with a Girl" and its accompanying Lego-animation music video directed by Michel Gondry. The video won three awards at the 2002 MTV Video Music Awards: Breakthrough Video, Best Special Effects, and Best Editing, and the band played the song live at the event. It was also nominated for Video of the Year, but fell short of winning. "Stylus Magazine" rated "White Blood Cells" as the fourteenth greatest album of 2000–2005, while Pitchfork Media ranked it eighth on their list of the top 100 albums from 2000 to 2004.
