Strokes Lyrics

Hi again, Im sorry but i learning to use Tumblr. 

I just wanna tell you that i agree with you about the new song. Im not a big fan, but a followed them since the first album and i feel that they are not anymore that indie band, but i guess they have to progress their music and that`s way they change the style. I think Julian has changed his mind too because he is not alone. Now he has a family. But i can feel that inside he is still the same little boy with fears and doesn `t want to grow up.

Never mind, i can t wait to listen to the new album! Although i think this song is very similar to Muelle de San Blas. But i don t care. They put in it their own style and that`s why they never let me down!!!

Personally, I'm not the biggest fan of One Way Trigger, and I don't know if it will grow on me. I fell in love with Is This It, Room On Fire and First Impressions of Earth, but Angles and this latest single just feel sort of alien to those first records. Too much synth for my liking, not enough garage rock... I mean I liked Julian's Phrazes For The Young because that was rock-y but also electronic/synth-y, but that was solo. But as a band with synth and all that jazz, The Strokes lose their sort of original, semi-low-fi, unforgettable garage rock sound. I wonder if it's going to come back. The Strokes are my favorite band but I really can't connect to their new music. I felt so much emotion listening to their earliest records, the lyrics were touching and the music was moving. I just don't feel that anymore... and I don't know if they'll ever go back to that.

I know it's important for bands to progress and change with the type of music they put out, but their latest stuff doesn't even sound like them. 

We'll have to wait and see what the new album holds.

This is just my own opinion.
