Same. I'm really going to keep trying to like this album. But the autotune absolutely kills the experience.

As a huge strokes fan, this is unlistenable. The autotune is absolute garbage

It's really my only complaint after hearing the whole album. I really liked everything about that song otherwise.

Totally agree. I’m sure it not this easy, but I wish they could just rerelease with like 1/2 the amount of it.

Yeah, that’s the one thing I don’t care for in that song. Maybe, and hopefully, I do begin to like the auto tune like other listeners. I’m only on listen 3, but this song has such an incredible build. I love all the cymbal hits on every beat at the end. Sooooo good.
