The Real McCoy Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 To this day, I have never understood the hype over this band. At all. Quote
Georgy Zhukov Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 It's okay. Better than the other song.Truth me told I use to listen to The Strokes to get chicks. Quote
wasted Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 You have to be on crack to think that was better than the other one. Its probably the worse single ive ever heard. This must be a bid for commercial suicide. Quote
wasted Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 Do you think they put out every song from the album as a single. Put out bsides first then on release put out some real singles? or do they just roll old school and put tons of records half which arent all that. But now and then theres a gem like Angles. Quote
Georgy Zhukov Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 I was thinking that too. Maybe he was better off a drunk. Quote
wasted Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 When youre sober you over think things. When youre maintaining a habit you just mail in the first half listenable recording. Im giving them the benefit of the doubt. Its a art rock comedown album. But it makes Sonic youth sound like Bon jovi. Quote
J Dog Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 To this day, I have never understood the hype over this band. At all.Have to agree 100% Quote
izzygirl Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 I don't like it. This band is soooo boring. Quote
wasted Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 Its like their Kid A. They going the Radiohead route. Quote
wasted Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 Great record, i just got it. Not really singles but its a nice record on the stereo. Quote
Randy Lahey Posted April 12, 2013 Author Posted April 12, 2013 (edited) Great record, i just got it. Not really singles but its a nice record on the stereo.I really like it too. The opening track is probably my favorite.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zMUbRgRNC8 Edited April 12, 2013 by Randy Lahey Quote
EccoTides Posted April 14, 2013 Posted April 14, 2013 (edited) Great record, i just got it. Not really singles but its a nice record on the stereo.I really like it too. The opening track is probably my favorite.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zMUbRgRNC8Same here - That opening track is something special. Overall, I like the first two tracks and the last track, but I found I'm rather ambivalent toward the rest of it.The last song is absolutely the weirdest thing The Strokes have released, but I love the hell out of it.

Dazey Posted April 14, 2013 Posted April 14, 2013 To this day, I have never understood the hype over this band. At all.They were great on the first couple of records but I've not really listened to much of theirs since then. Quote
Johnny Drama Posted April 14, 2013 Posted April 14, 2013 Christ they're boring now. I reckon this is what would have happened if Axl took over Guns with Slash and co on board. Quote
Randy Lahey Posted April 14, 2013 Author Posted April 14, 2013 Happy Ending is another good track. Quote
highvoltage Posted April 14, 2013 Posted April 14, 2013 I like this single a lot. I think a lot of what I like about them shines through simplicity. I like Julian's solo stuff, but I prefer The Strokes when they sound like The Strokes. Quote
