I like this band. Also, Julian Casablancas is a nice guy.

stivy (January 28, 2013)

so this is how you sound when you have no more creativity to write music ugh?

MN_DrNick (January 28, 2013)

You mean proof a band can just crap an album out of their butts? See also Metallica "St. Anger".

Dig the chorus, verses are a little annoying though.

ozmanx (January 28, 2013)

Sounds like something out of Ghost'N'Goblins or Castlevania.

Minus the female singing that is...it is a woman right?

I think some of their stuff is pretty good, but jeez. This is horrendous.

mike_killroad (January 29, 2013)

Seriously, once the singing came in I sort of squirmed in discomfort.

sciulli (January 28, 2013)

I think a lot of people are gonna not like this... but I dig his voice. I enjoyed this song. NPR comment above makes zero sense.

I saw The Strokes back in 2001 in Nashville, TN. They were very good that night. Damn I'm old.

rabbit (January 29, 2013)

didn't expect much, haven't liked them in a long time - but wow. really, really wow.
this is
hmm.

bloblaw (January 29, 2013)

This was more disappointing then all of angles combined.

"One Way Trigger" sounds more like Julian Casablancas than The Strokes.

I got tired of the synths so I made a more down to earth version: https://sites.google.com/site/videothestrokesonewaytrigger/
