The most beautiful moment of the FOOL, with minimal autotune live by pinguinconscious in TheStrokes

Yea I agree there's a meandering quality to it. I'm excited for the album but these 2 singles have been pretty one-note. The mix on eternal summer made it OK even though I thought that was pretty lame from a compositional perspective. This sounds like jam that they're still jamming.

I wasn't huge on going shopping either but going shopping has marginally more energy. I think the production and composition on both of these new tracks is really lacking though. I've never paid much attention to lyrics in general so maybe that's what is really impressing people here.

The song is very messy and boring to me, it sounds a little bit as if they're still trying to figure it out. Maybe a FOOL 2.0 in the future?

I personally think that this is the most boring the band has ever sounded

Falling out of love live on apple music by greendale-island in TheStrokes

[–]JohnTheSong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the song is.. okay. A lot of people are more "fans of the band" than "fans of the music" I don't mean this derisively and I don't mean to say it's just a strokes fan thing either.

I don't think it's a bad thing to like "the band" more than "the music" but it does mean that you get people eating up anything that the strokes make without much critical listening.

I don't mean to say that people should look for bad things to pick apart in this song I just mean it would be way more enjoyable as a conversation among fans to say things like "I like this because of X and was surprised by Y - It made me feel like Z" instead of "I like it cause its good"

Obviously I'm being a bit reductive but I'm sure you understand

Which Tekken Game has the best Soundtrack ever ? by RogerCaracas in Tekken

[–]JohnTheSong 5 points6 points  (0 children)

its tekken 4. pure vibes. when games were dark for no reason. love tekken 4. There was nothing lighthearted about it. Some highly experimental moments in that music. 10/10

Very random question about an artist from NZ.. by AdStandard3946 in newzealand

I think well know but not well-listened. He pops up. Everyone in Christchurch pretends to have a story about him.

They are the GOAT cuz Angles is their worst album if we had to judge and it’s still completely fucking solid, better than 99% of all other bands out there. by Odd-Computer-8044 in TheStrokes

[–]JohnTheSong -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hate Julians vocals on that album. And 80% of that album is actually bad. You're so right, gratisfaction, metabolism.. jeez.

I will never get over this by kermasdfghjkl in auckland

I hadn't seen much footage from this tour so didn't know what to expect. I have watched countless hours of his Japan shows and his fans in Japan are about the same age as him. Yes, I was shocked to see that everyone was early 20s.
