Really engaging work! This captures the self-seriousness of many bands and fans in the early-2000s music scene. It's a phenomenon brought into greater relief - and even made poignant - by the decline of music as a signaling tool for young people (Gen Z) to indicate their tastes and group memberships (cf. Rick Beato's commentary: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ioacZ6p5ea16ga8). Remember how John Cusack's character in the movie High Fidelity talks about his "desert island" songs/albums? Most young people today would probably not even know what the phrase "desert island" means in the context of music. And among those who do, the idea probably doesn't resonate as well because it hinges on an assumption of scarcity: Gen X and older generations remember what it was like for music to be out of reach (e.g., waiting for a song to be played on the radio, hoping an album will be on the shelf in Tower Records). The Strokes may be kind, well-meaning people in real life, but that doesn't take away from the silliness we can see in this old footage now: trust-fund hipsters bogged down by seriousness in their intention to made records that would do little more than retread classic rock sounds from the '70s more than 20 years later. I remember seeing the Strokes perform at a club in 2000/2001. They got to their single, "Last Nite," and it sounded to me like a cut-time shuffle suspiciously similar to Tom Petty's "American Girl." I liked it, but I didn't think a straight-faced advertisement of taste amounted to something culturally important in itself. Now nearly 25 years later, it's fun to remember when music still meant so much to young people. It meant much to me, but by seeing the old footage here, I'm reminded that it's okay for some sacred cows to die.

Let's just be real, this band is good, but not mind blowing. Spike Jonez, "Lost In Translation" etc was all nepo baby stuff, and nobody dogged on it that hard. This band is simply "ehh".

I saw The Strokes on the Is This It album tour and then on the Room On Fire album tour. The difference between the shows was stark. Is This It was a new band with confidence and swagger in a small venue. Room On Fire was a tired, unsure band in a massive conference hall. I've seen them live a couple of times since, and they have always been disappointing when compared to the first time. Julian's detached aloofness did not age well.

Hearing the Modern Age at Rough Trades offices for the first time, seeing their first UK shows in 2001, the release of subsequent singles and the finally the release of the Is This It album was a really exciting time . I have a platinum disc for x 300'000 UK sales. I don't think I've ever listened to Room On Fire or any of their other albums all the way through. Never saw them live again aside from one encounter at the recording of a live spot on the Later: With Jools Holland TV show where the atmosphere around the band (and crew) was pretty grim.

I’m so mad at the crown they placed on their heads when the band didn’t want it, saviours of rock’n roll etc. Yes it’s a very much needed and loved sound but the expectations alone doomed the band to stay between the line of something old and something new. If this wasn’t their origin story maybe specially Julian would’ve loved the band much more and put out more stuff. I feel like even with The New Abnormal’s success the guy wants to get away as much as possible from the name the Strokes. Well as an epitome of fear of failure i respect that they’ve managed to handle all of that. I’ve stopped studying after getting in to med school and also stopped writing after an editor proposed to publish a poem of mine.

She was warning that as big as they are to avoid being a flash in the pan or that they are truly a worthy band, they would have to follow it up & be able to maintain. Green Day is Still a massive band. They never dropped off. Green Day also had Kerplunk which also wasn't a quarter of 'is this it'. I think a large part of it though is that Doomie & Nevermind were the first Major label releases for each respective band & they had a lot of money backing them going into those albums that they hadn't had previously. Still I don't think Courtney is totally without merit, she may have just been trying to knock them down a peg but the stress of 2nd album follow up is a known thing.

Green Day is an unoriginal band who churned out a palatable version of punk to the masses, they sold millions more records than the Ramones who were trendsetters and actually broke through with a new sound. Courtney is even worse because at least BJ wrote the music. And don’t forget BJ was brought up in musical theater. So, again, record sales mean nothing. Also, a better comparison would be In Utero as Nirvana wasn’t famous until Nevermind.

I've been a punk for over 30 years. I don't care about green day but they have become one of the biggest rock bands over the last few decades, without a doubt. Discharge has probably played a larger musical influence overall but to speak of them isn't really relevant to what's discussed in this video. In the video the have direct quotes from Julian about his stress of the 2nd album, how can you not understand what Courtney said was relevant? I don't even know what you're referring to with "BJ" I never cared for the strokes, green day, nivana, hole, or the smashing pumpkins.

I hate to be that guy, but I was there in the summer and fall of 2001. I got the EP in July and I got the British import of the album because I wanted to hear it so bad (because I loved the EP). And then I saw them twice in the fall. And I don't want to say they sucked, but they weren't great. They only had an hour's worth of material, and they just played a passable version of what you heard on the album. They didn't seem like they had the chops that some of my friends' bands had. By the time the second record came out, I didn't really care any more. I'd moved on to the White Stripes, and then to The Mooney Suzuki. When I saw the Mooneys open up for the Strokes in 2003, they blew the Strokes off the stage, and they clearly didn't care what the Strokes might have thought about it.
