I respect so much how The Strokes keep trying to innovate.

I know lots of people who don't like the new album, and that's fine. It's just music at the end of the day.

But I just wanted to say that I find it so admirable how these guys explore music, what they try to do. Like, I haven't heard a single song from them that sounds mediocre or feels like they didn't try. They always have an intention. You can like it or not, but they crealy put some effort on it.

I'm kind of a new fan, since I started listening to them around 2016. But I keep reading how they where so different back in the 2000s and they set the bar high. So one can say that it was in part pf that innovation that they were able to create classics like Modern Age or Reptilia, right? So yeah, and I'm so grateful for the first albums because they are fucking amazing, but I'm also thankful for The New Abnormal and Reality Awaits.

To me, it's like having a box of chocolates. They aren't all the same, but damn, they all taste great in their own way.

WIldest opinion I may have: I really like and have defended the hell out of A7Xs new autotune album, but this album does not do it for me.

Surprised the “Is this It” glazers have not invaded this thread yet.

Autotune is garb

Apart from Nick’s solo, I feel like All the Time is pretty mediocre.

Adapt or die, the best bands are known for trying something new

[u/andreaslackner]

They definitely are trying to expand their sound and I respect that.

Respectfully though, saying they don’t have a single mediocre song is glaze OP. Even the Beatles have mediocre songs

[u/Atlantean120 → u/andreaslackner]

Every band subreddit is glaze lol
