MP3 of the Week
The Strokes are a great band. Most people think their second record, Room On Fire, was a weak follow-up to their debut, Is This It.
I don't feel that way. Both records have four or five great songs on them.
So we are eagerly awaiting their third record, First Impressions of the Earth, due out in early January.
The first single of that record, Juicebox, has hit the airwaves and the Internet.
So I'll will make Juicebox my MP3 of the Week.

I suppose you have already heard them, but if you haven't here is a must listen: The Hives.

The album Tyrannosurus Hives is a rocket fuelled mind blast.

Here's a link to a great read on how The Strokes got their break. Julian Casablancas and I worship the greatest living American songwriter, Robert Pollard lead singer of the recently disbanded Guided by Voices.
The moral of the story, whether in a band or start-up, is to "throw your mixtape up on stage."

Hi,
Thanks for this! Very nice tune from a great band. They manage to recreate that noisy vintage "television" sound while infusing their own style under a fresh production.
"The end has no end" is another marvellous song worth checking out from their latest 2nd album.
