why have they not come close to making an album as good as their debut?
except they have like twice
>>64219900
this
Angles and Comedown Machine are both better than Is This It.
>>64219900
which two?
room on fire was just a more boring rehash of is this it and angles only has one decent track on the whole album.
>>64219936
fuck off, troll. comedown machine is literally first impressions of earth tier.
>>64219994
It's actually slightly better than First Impressions of Earth.
Rank them, families.
>Is This It 9/10
>Room on Fire 9,5/10
>First Impressions of Earth 3/10
>Angles 7,5/10
>Comedown Machine 7/10

Just make Room on Fire a 7 and you got a pretty damn good review list.
>>64220095
drop angles and comedown machine a point and we're in agreement
>>64220074
how is your taste actually that shit
why all the hate towards first impressions
Personally, I like it more than Angles. It's more of Strokes album whereas Angles is more of a Julian Casablancas album.
(Not that that's a bad thing, though...)

First Impressions is pretty damn boring, VERY generic.

>awful instrument tones
>horrible mixing and mastering
>boring songs
>mediocre vocals
Oh I'm sorry you think it's my fault that they suck (Angles was a fluke, but a good one at that).
I always felt like Room on Fire was disc 2 of their debut, and it's fucking better
It seems like they took some of that FOTM energy and started practicing their guitars and shit on ROF. It's on point
Because their debut was literally 5/10: The Album.

you should try room on fire.

>horrible mixing and mastering
how do i just know that you're a powerchord-tier guitarist
>>64220911
I'm actually a funk and r&b bass player. I play some latin jazz as well.
>>64221010
why do you think the album is poorly mixed?

i hope that you come to understand the strokes while you're still young
