Just added the 'Oblivious' link for the anti-Spotify/real-life caveman crowd.

I'm digging this so far.

What is with that cello-ish effect on Drag Queen? What a turd of a solo. Drag Queen is a sloppy nightmare. Is the production quality supposed to sound like muffled farts? I never want to hear that again.

After a couple listens: Drag Queen is terrible, the other two are pretty enjoyable vintage Strokes jams. The solo at the end of Oblivious reminds me of Daft Punk's Aerodynamic in a very good way.

I just posted a review and used a similar analogy - I said they threw the ingredients in the microwave

When did he actually tried to make a unique sound? in First impressions of Earth?, On Room on fire?, on the 4th album?, he's trying too hard. Maybe he should join daft punk
