Biography
Pretty much everything there is to say about The Strokes has already been said, ultimate in rock n roll glamour, blah blah ground breaking multi platinum blah pivotal, blah. So in the spirit of the band let’s just say what’s important: What’s particularly special about The Strokes is that you can be sure that every note and lyric has been questioned and revised until only the necessary remain, leaving you with the most taught and perfectly constructed ideal possible. Tense, fierce and emotionally complex, a masterpiece every time.
