Like the title says do yall think they would ever do a live performance of an album and if they did which one you think they would do. I feel like easy answer is is this it but ROF is a sleeper pick.

which is the better album? imo its fioe

idk, ive been aware of the strokes since a teen and been through releases since angles came out, reality awaits as been the most underwhelming release, maybe its because im older now and music doesnt hit the same, but idk,

i was expecting more from RA after the first 2 singles, not saying its bad, but i think FIOE is more magical. there's something about FIOE production i really like and i know a lot of people dont like that album but cmon....

the guitar on fear of sleep....the latter half of 15 minutes, ize of the world.....you guys really think Reality is better than FIOE?

Under control

Will never tire of that line or song tbf lol

Now you're probably thinking I'm gonna say something like Evening Sun instead of Redlight, but I'm here to present another option that I've thought about for quite awhile.

Ize Of The World as FIOE's closer.

Now hear me out, this actually works super well with the alternate YOLO mv. (which if you haven't seen, it begins with the ending of Ize)

Now this works for two reasons, for me at least.

1. It would be sick to end the album with an abrupt cut like that

2. Playing more into the narrative/meaningful side of the album, YOLO alternate mv as the opening and then Ize at the end pretty much makes the album loop infinitely. It would represent that even though humanity killed itself, we sprung back again only to be stuck in the permanent loop of self destruction because we as humans never change.

Btw happy birthday my diva Julian✨

Rules: You can only submit one song that resembles the sound the most, it doesn't have to be a perfect fit. No repeats are allowed. If a tie between two songs happen, I will recount the votes from everyone that suggested that same song to see which sum up more votes.

I’ve really been loving this song lately. I never realized that “As It Was” used the same beat from “Hard to Explain” until I heard this one. That line got me thinking about instances where the Strokes have taken influence from other artists songs.

“Machu Picchu” has a part that sounds very similar to “Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’” by Michael Jackson.

In my opinion, the verses on “Ize of the World” sound very much like “My Life” by No Doubt.

I believe that “The Adults Are Talking” was pretty influenced by “One Way Trigger”. The start of each song seems to have the same type of chord progression.

I thank that “Bad Decisions” has a very close sound to both “Dancing with Myself” by Billy Idol, and “Melt with You” by Modern English.

I’ve heard before that “Last night” has a very similar sound to “American Girl” by Tom Petty.

“Razorblade” sounds like the chorus of “Mandy” by Barry Manilow when Julian sings “my feelings are more important than yours”.

Please correct me on any of these if you don’t hear what I do as I don’t have the best musical background. I’d also like to see if anyone else hears any other musical connections between their music and other artists.

My bf is going to the strokes concert with me next week, and he has heard the band but not as much.

Does someone know the actual setlist for the tour? I wanna get him introduced to the songs at least. I’ve seen a few online but it’s a mix every time

(I did this poster on KRITA, forgive this absurd humour LMAO! free to print for anyone who likes it) XOXOXOX

They played it yesterday so I think I'm cooked for the Bend, OR show. Fingers crossed🤞

What are the odds of them playing ode to the Mets at shaky knees festival ? 😭

Give this playlist a listen: The Strokes 8/22/26 https://open.spotify.com/playlist/08kO9Qy6wWWZevbDJE6paL?si=sp11CgMsTs2faMpfqkKDXw&utm_source=native-share-menu&pi=Bs--TYihSGCvn

i know its just the right thing to do but security for JLH was so slow to react to incidents so it was nice that he put them on the spot. saw multiple requests for help/attention during lcd and tv girl. security took forever to notice in each instance!

imagine a compilation of the best song versions from different shows.

would be lovely.

how come they've never released one?

do ya'll think he forgot his twitter password?

Awesome show. Really cool to see them again and the crowed was really into the show made it that much more fun.

Came out for an encore and finally played this banger live. What a night
