The Strokes

Anyone heard any of their albums? I think I've heard two of their songs and thought they were pretty good. I don't know the names of the songs though or any of the lyrics.

Sure, Ish played The Strokes a lot. The Strokes aren't bad at all, but there are bands I'd rather listen to. If you like The Strokes, for my money the White Stripes or The Hives are better.

Yeah I have Elephant and White Blood Cells.

Just thought I'd check out something similar.

Don't think I've heard anything by The Hives.

The Hives are more rockin' guitars than the White Stripes and The Strokes put together. Amber bought Veni Vedi Vicious a long time ago. Dude's from Sweden or some shit and cracks his voice like a motherfucker. It's great.

Amazingly, you can download free MP3s from Amazon. Not clips, either: the full damn thing. Check it out. (You may need to sign in.) They let you download Main Offender and Hate to Say I Told You So, which are two of the best tracks on the disc. Find Another Girl is nice, too; it's the change of pace track.
