Needles & Grooves

Like, the first time ever?

@scotthilk Pretty much - although I did see this video on TV regularly as a kid:

Tbh you can probably stop right there. Noticeable drop in quality after the first two albums.

@bettim84 I've only listened to 'Room on Fire'. Any other Strokes album recommendations?

@KenKaniff ”Is This It” is undoubtedly their best and one of my favorite albums.

@bettim84
I would also say that the third album needs a listen... it’s got some better songs.
Definitely skip Angles and Comedown Machine.
I do love The New Abnormal tho...

@Memo I am a Strokes homer who loves it all but for a new listened I’d definitely recommend the first 3!

@scotthilk
I grew up listening to the Strokes, had tickets to see them in may for the first time and Covid took it away from me...
i LOVE the first three. I kinda like Angles, but definitely skippable. Did not like Comedown Machine tho...

@Memo I also love all of AHJ and Julian’s side stuff.
