Angles is really underrated, I'd be surprised if this turns out to be better

Need to revisit that one in full, Under Cover of Darkness and Machu Picchu are bangers.

Three or four songs on ‘Angles’ are borderline unlistenable

- one sounds like their attempt to ‘do a Muse’.



If that doesn’t make you do a little sick in your mouth nothing will

First half of Angles is pretty great. Taken For A Fool is a top 10 strokes track for me

yeah most of the good songs are first half on 'Angles' - that's more hit and miss than this album...but probably more songs I'd say are in the 'great or better' category.



maybe 4 winners on that one

Tyranny is better than any of the Strokes albums, Virute's better than all except Angles

Never listened to these guys, but doing so now and ehh.. I don't get this. It's very boring to me. The vocalist sounds completely uninterested in what he's doing (that might be their 'thing' but if so than I just don't like it) and the melodies are very predictable and uninteresting too. Just not for me I guess. Good review though, pos'd

I don't know why people say this is boring. Have they listened to any other Strokes stuff before this?

Tbf only Brooklyn Bridge and Bad Decisions are mid tempo plus. People generally equate boring with slow songs, of which there are plenty here.
