Stupid fuck

I don't really get The Strokes. I don't get the sound. And the fact that they're Brandon Flowers most idolised band just puts me of even more to be honest.

Yeah, sorry. I'm still really not getting it. Even now. It all sounds far too similar and familar to other things, like this.
The difference is that Carl Barat & co seem like 'true' rock 'n roll animals. The Strokes are too polite.

Either way, I dislike this genre of music. I'm not quite sure what you'd call it.. rock? post punk? trash? just plain alternative? God knows. Just give me a nice tenor with the beautiful use of falsetto, a god of guitar who can equally play the xylophone, a drum beat which would Let England Shake (see what I did there?) a bassist who likewise adds either the fuzziness or clarity that booms the room and another guitarist who gives The Edge a run for his money in terms of effects.
