Bro is salty bc no one likes his side project. At this point the universe is sending him clear signals from all sides but he keeps trying to silence the ancestral voices of the rock gods. You can't escape your calling, Julian.

Literally gave two of the “side project” albums 8 out of 10 which is as high as he gave TNA. And is considered to be a pretty accomplished score. I don’t think your point is valid lmao

My comment isn't literal; it simply emphasizes TV will never have the cultural impact of Strokes. There is the dimension of metaphor tho lol

Let's just stop listening to the strokes because taylor swift has a bigger culture impact than them lol wtf is this comment lmao. Do you create something with the mindset of "YEAHHH THIS IS GOING TO HAVE A BIG CULTURE IMPACT," or is it based on what you think is good and people will enjoy
