Angles was shite with some good tunes, Comedown Machine was better, I'd love them to release a belter but I dont have high hopes.
Music The Strokes

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
I finally got round to listening to these.Two new tracks in the build up to their first album in seven years. The second of which lifts from Billy idol, for some reason.
Bad Decisions is alright... but the thing that struck me most is that no Strokes song should ever be over 4 minutes long... in fact most shouldn't be over 3 and a half minutes long.

Why not? Love the new album because a lot of the songs completely switch it up half way through like many great songs. Plus only really their first 2 albums were full of short loud punchy songsI finally got round to listening to these.

Their third album was bloated as hell tbf, though that was mostly down to the number of songs rather than their length.
Whereas the problem with the last two was more that they sounded like they were written by a committee of people who didn't get on. Which seems to have been about right. Few bands in recent years have made it as clear how much of a chore making albums is for them.

Brooklyn Bridge to Chorus is the best song they've put out for a long time.

New album is really good.
Agree very good album..New album is really good.
Brooklyn Bridge to Chorus being a hitter right from the off...
But really fresh and love the sound on it.
Really like the new album that gets better every time I listen to it. Brooklyn Bridge to Chorus is awesome but my personal favourite is Endless Summer.
