Damn good album. The Strokes as a band are done but inspired Arctic Monkeys to even create a band according to its lead singer Alex Turner. I've been listening to Arctic Monkeys too. They do a lot of covers of The Strokes but Alex can't touch Julian Casablancas vocals. They're both very good though in their own way though.

I bought the first album when it came out but always felt they were on a downwards spiral after that. Not their fault necessarily, there was so much unwarranted hype surrounding them back then.

This is true. They were under a large hype umbrella for their debut album which is normal for the industry trying to push something new before moving on to the next crap. I recently listened to (most) of their first album and I found it okay. IMO Room on Fire is way better and more polished ironically at the same time losing some of their heavy marketing. They were better after the hype. |

Can you expound a little? Played it while I had some Heineken's and bourbon last night. I have Julian Casablanca's 2009 album but never heard his material with the Strokes. |
