I love how all of this is done live. You can see the shenanigans' effects on the sound. At 2:15, Albert knocked over the mic, so he turned around and I tried to grab it, meaning his guitar part was absent during that sequence. Another is at 2:31, Fabrizio pushed both of the microphones recording his drum so his drum sound got significantly reduced. Oh I love all these little things. Really shows that the attitude of the artist and their live playing capabilities. Please give us another album to cherish!

Suddenly someone tapped me on my shoulder and said, "Hey kid, you should get his autograph, it's him". I replied that I thought so too and then a split second later realised it was actually Julian! I didn't have any paper, only those big rizla rolling papers, so he signed that for me. I said great show and he wrote "to Rachel". We laughed about it and then he signed another. Good memories :)

The scuzzy '70s aesthetic, the garish lighting, the chaos of the set and the cool indifference of the performance, plus a great, fierce song to boot: This is the most iconic music video of the 2000s.

[@milescory8928]

Interesting Fact: Brandon Flowers (The Killers) in an interview said that when “Is This It” was released in 2001, they threw away all ideas for their songs except Mr. Brightside. It’s safe to say without The Strokes (and of course the help of The White Stripes and Interpol), there would be no Killers, no Arctic Monkeys, no Franz Ferdinand, no Black Keys and so on. Post-Punk Revival of the 2000’s wouldn’t exist without The Strokes.

But the sides of Julian's hair is growing out, it looks like Nick maybe growing his back some and Albert definitely has some hair growing in the back too. I loved the sort of dueling guitars between Nick and Albert on 'The Adults Are Talking.' To me, the guys looked great and they look much younger than they actually are.

The Strokes' early albums are so timeless due to their deceptive simplicity and candor, both in songwriting and production. You have to remember that at the time _Is This It_ came out, Nü Metal was at its absolute peak, with bands like Linkin Park and Papa Roach thriving in all their maximalist, Wagnerian loudness. The Strokes' ability to bring sophisticated harmonic chord patterns, charismatic lyricism and dynamics, and evocative, intimate imagery to their music was nothing short of a *stroke of genius. All of which were done so masterfully with no fluff and no filler; just smart, seemingly insouciant, minimalist guitar pop, appearing out of nowhere. It was such a welcome respite from the compressed, shredded noise that dominated the airwaves and the reason The Strokes' appeal continues to today.

[@swaginator5077]

Linkin park is the only nu metal band I can respect but these strokes guys take the cake of anything early 2000s my god

[@TourGuide223]

I think a lot of the strokes guitar is a lot more complex than it sounds really. There is just a pretty high degree of talent all around in that band.

[@wifibug3596]

@@swaginator5077 that’s bs. You’re probably only saying that because you haven’t listened to another nu metal bands. For me, Slipknot is at the top (but still linkin park are amazing)

"Last night" chorus changes slightly in the second verse in the original recording. First chorus she says she feels left out when she's turned on, then second chorus she says she feels so down when you left last night, but then the singer says he doesn't care any more.
