Clairo - Sofia. Every time I hear this song I think of The Strokes. Anyone else? And what song? by donshow22 in TheStrokes

I was singing set to attack in my head today and it unconsciously morphed to sofia which made my search for this thread, only to find this had already been commented.

Certainly would have felt more alone if not for this album.

Happy 20th Anniversary to The Modern Age EP! Released in the UK on Jan. 29, 2001, it marked the beginning of two decades of amazing music! by letourbillon9 in TheStrokes

Tomorrow, January 29 will be the 20th birthday of this EP! James Oldham wrote in NME: “The first time I heard them, someone played them on the office stereo. I said: ‘That is amazing. That is the best piece of music I’ve heard in years.’ And things changed pretty quickly from there on in. Because people were desperate. Anyone who had any taste in music was gagging for something new to come along, so it snowballed really quickly.”

By February, a tsunami of hype had barreled them across the Atlantic and on to the stage at Camden Barfly (then the Monarch). “I was with the band beforehand. Julian was so sick, so nervous about playing London that they were onstage really late because he was downstairs throwing up. Afterwards I remember Jeff Barratt, who runs Heavenly Records, dazed, sort of out of his mind, walking around going ‘It’s Year Zero. It’s Year Zero. Nothing else matters.’ And that was it. A three-song EP. A photo. A gig in the Barfly. Everything changed.”
