      No they aren't. He has a deep voice and they play some catchy indie rock. But platitudes get upvotes so do your thing.

      @@marshall0814 First, you capitalize God, it's a name. Second, I'm sure you enjoy listening to country twang, or even further, typical rap music but it's hard for me to imagine someone like you having poor taste in music. It must suck liking trash radio music, rap, mainstream music.

    Seems like every good band that had formed in the 2000s points back to The Strokes, yet I feel like a ton of people still sleep on The Strokes as a band. They're phenomenal and started the re-revolution of good music, especially in the digital and shitty pop age.

    • @natechenry
      @natechenry 4 года назад

      Eh, not necessarily pointing to any specific band in particular, not even the strokes. Because Keane, The national, Arcade Fire, Interpol and more all had and have great music but they don't point at anyone because they each have their own unique sound. Also, nobody sleeps on the strokes, there are millions of listeners on their platforms like the national. Why would you want the strokes to be more heard about anyway, just so they fall into the mainstream shit like you said about this shitty pop these days? I don't think this type of music formed from any one specific band, they all just tinkered with keyboards and strings and vocals until they each found their rhythms. Nothing more.

      Nah. Lots of people love the Strokes. Maybe just not enough for you.
      Don’t worry about it.
