Title: Somebodys listened to the Strokes a little too much
Review: Yuck. Well maybe that's too strong a reaction. Rather more like: ........ zzzz. Heard it all before, nothing even remotely original or interesting about this band. I don't necessarily turn it off when I hear it on the radio, but for the most part it's just more top 40 overhyped mush, i.e. it's derivitive and dull. I kept hearing how these guys are the next big thing. If that's true then rock is surely dead. There are better bands out there folks, trust me.Oh yeah, the '80s were TWENTY f-ing years ago, get a clue. What will people say about the 2000s? What characterises this decade? I'll tell you what: it's the decade where bands imitated music of the past except without the wit or imagination that made the music interesting in the first place. Mindcandy for TV people. Go back to sleep junior, music is just entertainment: I keep forgetting that it shouldn't be something more. Trendy, trendy.
