Good Health is the first studio album by Pretty Girls Make Graves. Originally released in 2002 by Lookout Records, it was re-released by Matador Records with an additional 4 songs made up of the band's first self-titled EP. This album is often mistakenly referred to as Is It Broken, Doctor? on some internet discussion boards and file-sharing services due to the inclusion of that phrase on the cover of the album, on which the actual title is not present.
In a 20th anniversary review, Stereogum's Tom Breihan dubbed Health "28 delirious minutes [that are] enough to leave you breathless and stirred." He positively called its sound "fast and urgent and adrenaline-charged", as well as "rich and dynamic."[5] In a 2022 retrospective list by BrooklynVegan, it placed #33 out of 35 of 2002's best emo & post-hardcore albums. The site's Andrew Sacher wrote that the group "came out of the gate swinging" on the record and that, 20 years on, its tracks "still pack a refreshing punch."[6]
