this is a fun album guys. if you like The Strokes, you will like this, because a huge part of The Strokes is Julian's voice, and he sounds great on this.


That's like saying Mick Jagger's solo stuff is great because he's the voice of the Stones.

well not only because of his voice, should have clarified. these songs are quite good. i'm happy that they don't sound like a carbon copy of The Strokes. that'd be boring.

I listened to this over the weekend. I like!

True, but I'd not call any of it great though.

this song reminds me of CAKE. Probably the pacing of the vocals.

I think it's based on the single I heard, but yeah I'd sooner listen to the Dead than this exciting new rock and roll. I assume you're a big, big fan?

got around to my first spin through this morning and this ain't bad at all. Maybe even good.

I'll definitely be spinning it a few more times this week, but not before I test drive that new molina. It's been a good week for new stuff.

I downloaded it too, just need to work up the nerve to unzip it. Indie pop is scary now.

Out of the Blue is some of Julian's best lyrical work. I like this part a lot:

Somewhere along the way, exacting vengeance gave excitement,
Somewhere along the way, that excitement turned to pleasure,
Somewhere along the way, that pleasure turned to madness,
Sooner or later that kind of madness turns into pain.

And the ones that I made pay were never the ones who deserved it,
Those who helped me along the way, I smacked them as I thanked them,
Yes, I know I'm goin' to hell in a leather jacket,
At least I'll be in another world while you're pissin' on my casket.

Listening now and 'fun' is a good word to describe it. I'll probably buy this tomorrow.
