Re: (TV) Strokes

after all the crazed hype re: the strokes, i gotta say i was let down
myself...yr right, it ain't bad but man, it's stretching it to say their
sound is nyc ca. 77 or even vu/stooges axis like mosta the press/crits are
wailing & their songs are...well....sorta rock & roll pastiche....
white stripes, on the other hand, have thoroughly lived up to (& actually
surpassed) the hype....that jack white is a damn fine songwriter & alotta
the songs off the new one sound timeless....
