Really solid tracks. some of the best since Room on Fire. I'm actually pretty interested in them again after listening to the EP,

Love how they just play the guitar solo of Daft Punk's Aerodynamic at the end of Oblivious and zero fucks are given
Fuck you, OP. Every couple of months, I stop listening to my music to give something /mu/ says is good a chance. Now I paused my instrumental Middle Eastern-influenced zeuhl for this, and sure enough, it turned to be sparse, droning, whining, uncomposed, 'mood' shit... as always.
I just never learn.

Im talking about the the Middle Eastern-influenced zeuhl
OP I suggest you reexamine your opinion of the Strokes. Room on Fire is a great album but it didn't do a lot to innovate on the Is This It sound. Frighteningly, this new release hasn't either.
Oblivious is a bland Is This It cut with lyrics as uninspired as the worst parts of First Impressions of Earth, that squeal in the guitar solo is pretty cool though. Drag Queen is Julian trying to bring some Voidz stuff (particularly the dischordant guitar) to the Strokes with rather boring results. The opening of Drag Queen in particular is pretty offensive how boring it is for something like a whole half minute. Threat of Joy is an excellent (still Is This It era-sounding) song and I don't know why it's not the first single off this (the use of fuck in the lyrics was a mistake as far as getting this on the radio).
What the hell happened after Comedown Machine? That was their best album since their debut. Why the hell are the telephone vocals back again, and sounding shittier than ever?
I wanted more Tyranny but not in the form of Drag Queen.

Comedown Machine is one of their most soulless albums
and fuck you i like Oblivious
>>65424105
I really don't know where you get soulless from considering it seemed like they took a lot more effort to sound different from their trademark sound.
