How does it compare to their earlier albums? Do they try anything new? I liked their previous albums when they came out, but they got repetetive and boring fast, IMO. Wondering if this one is worth picking up.
I downloaded it from one of their blogs a week or so ago. GREAT album! I'm lovin it! It really is getting better and better with each listen too. In true Strokes fashion...super catchy, rockin and fun. I can't wait to see them live in the insanely amazing musical year that is '06.

So that is how I learned the lesson that everyone is alone. And your eyes must do some raining if you are ever going to grow. But when crying don't help and you can't compose yourself. It is best to compose a poem, an honest longing or simple song of hope.
That is why I'm singing

I'd say it's a lot more rock n' roll than there other albums. It's definitely a change in direction for them (but a change for the better imo) The only problem with this album is that I seriously don't see an album topping this album this year (although it's probably to early to say that) but it really is a great album. It's definitely got the strokes feel to it though

its january 3rd..
and..
pearl jam, red hot chili peppers, Radiohead... those 3 alone will blow the strokes away..
its definetly too early to say that..
i'm really excited about the strokes though.. i want it. (i have the other 2 and love them)
i dug the strokes... but somewhere after i listened to ther 2nd album a 3rd time i realized every song they ever wrote sounded exactly the same. and i just stopped caring about them.
I love the first track You Only Live Once..i will like more..gotta listen to it properly but so far so good
yeah that track is great; the whole album seems to be much more mature both musically and lyrically than the first two. The strokes seem to be becoming better and better.
I attack with love, pure bug beauty, curl my lips and crawl up to you.
"cold, you're so cold, you're so cold, you're so cooooooooooooooooooooooollldddddd!!!!!!!!!"
can't get that shit outta my head!
"I'll tell you what: If all I had was Pearl Jam, and I didn't have another band in the world, I would not be worried. Because in there is the essence of making great music. You don't have to use it all at once, but it's there." - Neil Young
OH Razor Blade is defintiely one that's standing out a lot to me... as well as Fear of Sleep! Hard to pick a fav at this point. I do find myself SUPER hooked on Evening Sun and 15 minutes. How about the tripped out Ask Me Anything? Very different and tripped out Beatlesesque. Goood times these times!

Hell Yeah. Nice to see other fans of these guys. This record is very good. I'm gonna go listen to it again actually. Razorblade so far is one of my favorites. And the rocking ass one, #3 or #4 maybe, "I don't feel bad when I'm, fuckin' around." That one. Anyone want to join me I'll be over here. Not there, there. Not there, there. There. HA-HA,...there.
Are you too good to tango with the poor poor boys?
*waves to Dick Jones* I agree, it is nice to see love for these guys. Oh, you're talking about Heart in a Cage. That one is awesome as hell too! There's just so much goodness going on here. And I must agree with you StuffnJunk...that song is SOOOOOOOOO catchy! Shit!! That bass!?:eek: Uh! "why wooon't you come over HERE-AH!" Julian's voice rocks serious ass! Hooked at first listen. It definitely refuses to get outta my head...and that's a ok by me.
Yep...the HUGE music year of '06 is appropriately kickin off with a big ass bang.

Oh my, they dropped the leash.
Morgan Freeman/Clint Eastwood 08' for President!
"Make our day"
Pearl Jam - Possibly
RHCP - NO
Radiohead - NO
yeah that track is great; the whole album seems to be much more mature both musically and lyrically than the first two. The strokes seem to be becoming better and better.
can't get that shit outta my head!
I love the part after the first chorus where he says "Well there you go" I laugh everytime it gets to that part

One reason why the album is better than their older ones...the drummer finally relized he has toms on his drum set.
