Yes Edwina's right, ignor the music press and listen to albums on their own merits.
Vilainde, have you heard 'reptilia' from the Strokes' last album? It's an awesome song.

Well put. And why would they get on your nerves, Vilainde- just because they can't write a good song (which, incidentally, is not true)? |

Yes it is!
(I like constructed discussions)
Anyway, I don't want to go further in this thread. I just don't like when you say "Oh, you don't like them just because of the hype". That's an easy way of rejecting people who don't share your opinion. There are "hype" bands I like (White Stripes, the Kills) and others that I don't.
Oh, and when I said "they get on my nerves", I meant the songs, not the band. Songs like "Hard To Explain" make me cringe.
Anyway, it's just music!
Last thing: I have an actual name, it's written at the end of all my messages. My name is:
Denis

Oh, all right, Denis, I guess in your case then it's down to personal taste, which is fair enough. I doubt though that most of the people who declare the Strokes suck have actually listened to them, but never mind... |

I think The White Stripes would be a better opening band.
Don't sweat the petty things

Now the white stripes really are a bad band
