The Stone Roses have the grand total of 1 good song to their canon, and that's ''Fool's Gold''. The rest is a pile of aural SHIT.

I love the Strokes. Someone sell me their lps.

Totally great lp. I think I like it better than the debut.

I'm kind of a fag, so I love the Strokes.

Doubtful they'll make "the best album of THIS decade" tho.
But suppose I point a shamanic death-bone at you and recite a curse?

Their album pwns that afterthought of a single.

I dunno, I think the Strokes first LP - while not a masterpiece by any stretch of the imagination - is a pretty good record. The dubious stench of calculated cash-in permeates the whole thing, but so what? Lots of good records were made by dudes trying to get famous. I kinda wish I had it on vinyl, but I wouldn't pay more than $8 for it.

concise summation right there. none of these dudes will ever make a record or anything remotely as good as that record, and that first record being 'just pretty good for the most part.'

First 2 LPs are completely awesome. Cosign 69's comments about the t(h)urd.

I became a card-carrying fanclub member (seriously) after the first single, and I still stand behind it that record as well as most of the first lp. I was so disappointed after hearing the second lp
that I discontinued my membership. Didn't like ANY of it, nor did I like the third at all. I wanted them to actually be as good as the first single promised, but it's been diminishing returns ever since so I've all but written them off

They did make the best album ever!

It's called Rock 'N Roll Animal.
