I think a lot of the success of that wave of bands in the early 00s was also down to a cultural shift in the UK away from house music and clubbing. Throughout the mid- late 90s - early 00s dance music dominated everything but by 01/02 it had gotten stale, people were looking for something else, a new scene to follow, and The Strokes were just in the right place at the right time, they hit the UK in 2001 when there was a bit of a culture vacuum, the same way Nirvana did in the early 90s, and Oasis in the mid 90s, and it just caught fire, everywhere you went in 2002 kids were dressed like The Strokes and going to indie discos.

You should do the movie Dig!

I really didn’t need to know that my rock n roll hero’s had a zoom quiz…

Pure brilliance

I remember this well as was actually working with the Dirties on that tour & Wolverhampton was quite a night/morning to say the least...Someday i'll write a book 😉

This interviewer was a complete and utter cunt …. I would have had no issues whatsoever if Pete had just told him to fuck off “ask me about my music!!??”

Great insights from Paul Robinson throughout 😂. If you can do some reactions to mid 00's Never Mind The Buzzcocks - Donny Tourette, Ryan Jarman episodes.

Imagine if they'd had Babyshambles on instead

You should do that Kyle Falconer interview with Lovejoy on Channel B

Bollocks has been proven to not be a swear word

What happened to him ? He used to look so cool. Now he looks like a complete 🤡

Nostalgia!

Not a chance this would happen now , utter woke nonsense

Keep these coming

Nice one!! Is that whitnail and I guy?🤷🏻‍♂️…. Simply adore how Noel handled all of that with Grace and humor!!! …. Carlos looked like he had a bunch of Charlie up the ol sniffer!! 😂.., Such a good watch thanks for the laugh!!🤙🏽🤣

Peter is a big bhoy ☘️I was with him last week at the Barrowland and I'll be wearing his cravat tonight taking my daughter out for her 21st, couldn't speak highly enough of all the Libs 💚

The office I worked in for years was right next to the Brickies on Rivington Street. I've had many a pint in there over the years and had no idea Razorlight had played on the roof. That is painfully Shoreditch.

Have you tried getting an interview with Peter Doherty before?

They never had the plot.

Hmmm... it's not really grabbing me to be honest. A bit lacking in energy to be on a prime time talk show (although that doesn't mean much).

I like this song and this version. Didn’t like Square Wave on Fallon, there’s some good riffs in that one but he over did the auto-tune, which he didn’t on this one. Think an EP would have been better with 5/6 of the best songs. Big Stokes fan but would love to see the Voidz be the Voidz onstage not doing Stokes songs. Prophecy of the Dragon live would be brilliant.

😂 nah you’re not overthinking it, you’re quite right! 😃🤣🙌🙏

The Album is definitely a grower.. First listen i was dissapointed that there weren't 1 or 2 more heavy bangers.. but now I'm loving the album it's more of a psychedelic album i guess and flows nicely. 🤠

Still waiting T_T

That goal is The Cribs in a nutshell. ❤

I think indie was very overrated but it was a great era for live gigs where people were really there for the music, before social media.

Next up, reacting to Martin Freeman ranting at the soccer am guy about his Ramones shirt? 😂

I remember watching when they went on to promote 24/7 RSS and Ryan did the volley challenge and got it top bins, I asked him about it at the HMV signing and he said he genuinely has no idea how he does it haha. Also remember a lot of ‘footy lads’ were slagging them off on Twitter over their live performance which was quite funny.

This was peak Cribs time, i saw them plenty in and around Leeds at the time, and soccer am was unmissable at the time. Tim got it spot on about TV shows.

To add, i feel like kele just wants you all to be the best that you can totally be. Perhaps he goes about the wrong way but id say its passion. I could be chatting a load of crap though, as i know nothing really.

Ive met them briefly on brick lane about 10 years ago. I never get excited when i see celebs but i honesty was so shocked i screamed out bloc party and ran into a chinese shop. I saw them laughing. Kele is a hottie and im in love with him. 😅❤

“Soz n that” is iconic 😂

The cribs crazy golf, soke cracking bits

This era was a great time to be young . The Strokes, The Hives , Libertines , Dirty Pretty Things , Art Brut , Adam.Green , The Crimea , The Upper Room., Even the first Ordinary Boys album . What a Time to be alive . I am into loads of other Indie bands from other eras . Pavement , Pixies , Mountain Goats , Sonic Youth , Hefner , Violent Femmes , Wedding Present . I'm just listing bands I like hehe ha. But I loved being young , when.so called indie landfill happened , cos there were gigs going on all the time , it was really fun .

Gotta do a video of Carl hammered on Soccer AM surely

nme rizla new music tour 2005 cribs headline was so dece - supported by Towers of London (lol!) and Battle who were never heard from again!

Have you noticed, I've never been impressed, with offers from New York or London?

Really enjoy this channel, keep up the good work! Any similar channels knocking about?

Love the new format!

Big fan of the band also a skylit drive from Lodi they also form 2005

Faded Seaside Glamour by the Delays is better than both of these.

Babyshambles at that time-I mean, I remember being at the Blackpool show, and the one at the Ritz in Manchester, from that tour before the first album, Pete was asleep on the stage in Blackpool, and nobody could play a note they were so high; people who say, "Oh, I bet you wish you didn't leave", forget how close they came to imploding before that first album, they were junkies first, musicians second at that point. I always remember there was someone at the side of the stage with a dog and a bag of cans; the whole thing had homeless vibes; they were being supported by the Towers of London, these other talentless drunks. It was a brilliant and terrible car crash of a show - nobody could blame her for getting away from them.

Great vid man. I definitely pegged the Pigeons as landfill too but I saw them a few months ago supporting the Libertines and they had more good songs than I remembered and were excellent fun!

Was half expecting los campesinos to be on the list even though it’s a band I love

😂😂 this is brilliant! 😂😂❤🙏🤩🤣👌💪🏾🙏🥳🥳🙏

I know its all about taste in a way, but from getting towards late 20's in the early period a lot more for me are landfill just because of how they sounded generic and all the same. a lot aren't but in my opinion quite a lot more than what you added. You can have a good song but still be landfill. Is there a slight argument that this is one way that began to kill mainstream guitar music with all the acts just sounding the same?

2:10 you sounded exactly like Julian. I had to do a double take when i heard it 😂

Nardwar was a troll before trolls. he got bands to freak to make good TV. or so Much Music thought, anyway. instead it's just kind of aggravating. I dunno how punk rock it is to be bumming the Transplants out for your interview program on Canadian MTV. I just don't know. at the Vancouver Warped Tour in 2006 he walked by me and a couple friends and I said hello to him. he said hello back. and that's my explosive Nardwar story -- he's not really like that in public when walking by with what appear to be his parents. B U S T E D. he was nice enough though, so actually I have no complaints at all. doot-doodle doot-doot.

Think you were being very generous there with some; Razorlight, Ordinary Boys, The Kooks, The Enemy, The Automatic. Dare I say it, Dirty Pretty Things too. Lots of bands I've never even heard of in that list too who by default I would then chuck in the landfill. To be honest most new bands after that initial 2001-03 wave were landfill in my opinion.

I’m not super knowledgeable about the Strokes but what do the other guys in that band spend all their time doing if it’s Julian that is writing everything?
